    I know this is a tech forum, but how is chat looked upon on this forum? Will jokes be closed? Would the person be banned.

    It's just a shame really.

    there's another forum for casual conversation threads. not sure and too lazy to look (if there is one) but a non-360 thread in this subforum will more than likely be locked.

    There is a thread for jokes, probably buried under tons of threads. Think it's called "Friday's Funny's" or something like that.

    A chat thread has been started a few times, but ultimately got closed by either ddp or creaky, last one called "Pointless Pap" almost a year ago.

    Couldn't remember which one of y'all it was. I just remember that a comment was made that y'all didn't mind it, but sooner or later someone says something that someone gets offended by and it boils down to name calling, fighting, and **** measuring to see who is better.

    I just remember that in the first few postings, then towards the end, the banter got going off in one direction and it was closed.

    It always does, that's one of the reasons why they never last long and are frowned upon..

    You're welcome to keep it open if you want to ddp :)

    (or do mean it's a bummer that there are actually places on this site that provide a safe haven from my hammer)
