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
Rules for the but not for me! As they fly on private jets and live in huge mansions they expect us to save the world. You can bet those huge houses are electric heating and AC. Look at the amount of cars the rich and celebrities have. I've never bought into climate change BS. I agree with everything you said. I follow archaeology sites online and also ordinary people's posts about finding whale bones, Indian artifacts, dinosaur bones etc. If I found anything like that I wouldn't be telling the world. Why should the government own the historical artifacts? Other than to make money and control people. I could vent all day with you. Gas prices go up and down according to the market. They should stay at the same price the store paid. By the way I think incandescent bulbs are out lawed as of 7/31/23. I saw lots of posts on social media people asking where to find them. I think they are off the shelves.
