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 suspect I'm due to be banned. If you don't hear from me for a while, you'll know why.
I love our mod team, and I love our frogs, but the posting of lies and fake disinformation to the board is something I just do not feel should be accepted or tolerated. Not when the source of the lies have been exposed again and again, and yet, its like, "that don't matter! Truth and lies don't matter!"
Man, it pisses me off no end.
We all make mistakes. But when a pattern of behavior is ongoing and never held to account, what can one do?

Maybe you can use the ‘Get out jail Free’ card they just issued 🥴
Hahaha! That was my first thought.
For the record, I wrote what i thought was perhaps a bit abrasive or harsh to a fellow frog and a mod, so I was prepared to take my lumps. But it looks like the frog and the mod didn't take it that way. (Lord knows, I was not trying to offend, just be open and candid.)
