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
Sis if they end up changing it to a weekly, we will adapt and over come. It's why we are here at this time. We can all work together and still hold together that family feeling. Maybe even add some new people to the group. Keep faith. Together through Christ we have endless potential
I know what you’re saying. I’m just putting my two cents in. There are many of us, as you know, who try to check/check in to Gen. Chat on a daily x10 basis. I can’t wait a week to tell you guys something. So much happens that I would surely forget! Why not have both? Daily plus a continuation thread that lasts for a week. We will lose a lot of input the other way. WWG1WGA and all input counts.
If you made your comment a top comment then it would easily be seen if you sort by new in the post. By weekly thread I believe the thread would be stickied for the week still. The downside would be the amount of comments would increase so we would have to look through more things. However I think over time this board will grow so that would eventually happen to general chat anyways.
I do completely understand your feeling and I love that you love the connection because I do as well. Thanks for sharing your input and have dialogue with me about this God bless you fren.
