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
How do you report a username that’s being rude and nasty in private message? Thanks
I had this same thing on my messages about two weeks ago. I ended the whole thing by telling him to find Jesus and that I felt sorry for him. When I mentioned Jesus, I never heard from him/her again.
I love this and am going to start doing that. Evil doesn’t like to hear Jesus. Hopefully most aren’t true evil but just lost and will seek Jesus.
That’s my hope.
We mods cant really do anything about Private Messages. You have to report to https://scored.co/c/meta and they can ban them site wide.
Thanks
Just BLOCK and ignore. That’s your best bet. To ignore them completely. Or like recommended above, share Jesus with them.
Thanks I blocked but that doesn’t always work. Honestly it’s kinda useless because these trolls probably get the account shutdown and make another account. Ignore is most likely best.
Unfortunately, I don't think you can. You can only block the person. We have at least one malignant derelict here who has nothing better to do with his life than to park his ass on this forum and harass people.
Blocking doesn’t work for me. I had a rude person in the last few weeks. I posted the username and the comment in gen chat and they replied to my post. I deported them and I believe they were either removed, comment removed or given a warning. Not sure. Maybe blocking keeps them from sending private messages. Thanks for replying. I’ve seen a few rude people. There’s always a few anywhere you go.
I had it happen last week after a post here. Got an obnoxious and rude dm/pm. I didn't respond and hit block.
To my surprise saw this user posting today actually! Thought , huh, went and looked at the awful message to make sure, yup it was them. Fren, I scrolled right on past the posts they made.
Remember, people throw things , at those that shine bright! 😊
Hate it happened to you but glad to know I’m totally crazy 🤪
