Just a warning: can we make this a sticky?

We are not allowed to chat on the threads. I'm only saying this because it seems that many 'thread titles' on here are only thin masks to cover up the sins taking place therein: CHATTING! And obviously I slipped by the radar because the rules were too relaxed...

So stop it. OK?

    Is this a joke? There's a sticky that's been up there for months that says not to chat.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    I still think the reasons given on the 'rules' for not chatting are just inadequate.... in order to not create 'cliques'? What? Who's been doing that? I certainly haven't. Everyone was welcome on my threads.. I was listening to PJ and drinking with some friends I've made on here. We're all Pearl Jam fans here, the lot of us. I'm not trying to create a clique in order to create some uprising or new world order.

    PJ and wine anyone?

    Mark, drop it. It even says 'not a chat room' on the title forum. :)

    We can all still chat to each other-just not as much. :p

    Seriously... you're not aware of any cliques? :confused::D

    And no, it's not you I'm referring to Mark :) you're wonderfully oblivious to the whole thing :)
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    He's lovely. I know what he means though. Mark is always welcoming to everyone. He responds to everyone's posts.

    That's what I'm getting at... We all have our best friends here, but who doesn't? If there's a good thread, I'll be in it. If there's a nice person helming that thread, I'll make friends with him/her. Nothing cliquey about that.

    But you make about three different threads each day, in which to chat. :)

    Exactly! see Mark, this ISN'T a chat room and it can't be cos not everyone's like you. Sure your threads are all inclusive and that's lovely, some aren't so welcoming :) . But if they let you away with the rule they'd have to let everyone away with it and this place would just explode... it would be a mess.

    Boo Hoo. If you want to chat, get on Messenger or something. Or go to another board.

    They can ban you (or me) or delete posts just for spite if they want to. IT'S THEIR BOARD!

    They make the rules but never enforce them.

    They're pretty soft, really. I think they prolly like people to make friends on here but this is a sort of business and they have to lay down the law.

    I'm not saying they should suddenly go all militant on our asses... I love the way this board runs. It's perfect. This is a real community to me. But that's exactly why I fell foul of this confusion.

    Anyway, sorry to have offended anyone... This thread can die. :)

    I never understood that..
    a part of the forum where you can talk about everything that's off-topic (ie non-PJ)...that sounds the very definition of chatting to me..:D

    MSN is unwelcoming, since you have to address specific people.
    and other boards aren't PJ...or if they are they don't have the same people.

    I chat a lot on facebook with jammers I KNOW, but tehre's a lot more people here that are either not on facebook, or I don't actually know so don't want to add them on facebook

    Thankyou Pegasus. It looks like we're on the same page. I'm really struggling to get the difference between what this place is... and what it APPARENTLY isn't. A lot of 'chatting' goes on here.

    What's this all about? Did someone's late night drunken threads get deleted and/or locked?

    put on a slow, dumb show for you

    Yeah, you might know him. I wouldn't worry - he's pretty harmless.
