Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I believe the purpose of general chat is to comment about non Q related content. I see general chat as like minded community that wants to connect with their peers. It can be serious topics or BS. It's not like there's not enough post that might be "on topic" we can post on. I personally like it because it's a stress reliever and I like learning people's personalities and about their daily lives. I've binged Facebook and instagram many years ago getting zero connection to people I actually know in real life. I feel like I know many here better than my friends I grew up knowing or new friends. Edited: After reading my post I was a little mean, sorry about that. Didn't intend to be mean.
Thanks for sharing. Your response didn't seem mean to me either.
Sure fren🐸 Maybe you read before I edited. I have a tendency to pounce and ask questions later. Much better than I used to be.
