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

Daily Chat? What is this Daily Chat? Why can't I see the Daily Chat? Are you guys keeping things from me?
Have I been fake banned? Or real banned? Or are you just hiding posts from me, like an inverted shadow ban? Are you trying to fake shadow ban me??!!
No. I'm not paranoid. I chat. I sometimes do it daily. I daily chat, so then where is this so-called Daily Chat, huh?
I'm starting to feel disappointed. I dropped in to General Chat and found NO ONE discussing the Daily Chat thread, even after 57 minutes. Frens, do you even lift?
Disappointment abounds. HeartOfStoneII would be proud. But pride be damned!!! Where is the Daily Chat???!
....
Oh.
Um...
Er, OK. Oops.
Er, Hi there, Gen Chat!

Addendum: Cats posted a Public Service Announcement exhorting pedes to use the "Daily Chat Live Sticky Thread" for stuff.... I have only ever seen ONE "Daily Chat", and that was a post by Polish about one year ago. :p
Fake banned. Some tard doing stuff. No worries about it.
That's interesting. We have a Daily Chat every day.
lol, Cat, you do realize that it's GENERAL CHAT, not Daily Chat, right? (unless seriously I'm missing something)
And as most denizens of the Gen Chat will know, the above by me was a whimsy, a bit, a pastiche, a skit, for the purpose of entertainment and frivolity.
But thanks for the response anywhoo.
Note also, a GAW search for "Daily Chat" brings up Polish's post from one year ago, and your stick, but nothing else. It's not hard to deduce that BB took up the mantle and the currently named General Chat is in fact the 'daily chat' you are referring to, but it's still "General chat' (or "Gen Chat" to the sophisticated 'in' crowd) and not 'daily chat', even if it is daily and a chat.
