Re: To chit chat or not to chit chat

I'd be willing to lose posters whose only interest is chit chat, to gain those who's sole interest is FIRST. I think those who participate in both chit-chat and the other forums, would still remain if chit-chat was toned down or eliminated. I could be wrong about this, but I think most of the hybrid posters are here mainly for the FIRST discussion.

The one thing that I see happening if you were to eliminate chit-chat is that you would get about two or three people visiting the forums during the summer.

By eliminating the Chit-Chat forum, things would become a lot more serious around here, and we would gain many new readers and posters with various new insights and information, which would make CD a much better resource. Sure, we wouldn't be able to have a lot the fun little threads that we've all come to enjoy (and yes, despite me sounding like a grinch right now, I'd miss a lot of it too). But there's no reason that these discussions couldn't occur on another board not hosted by ChiefDelphi.

The only thing that irks me about the chit chat forums is the 6 or 7 political topics that always degrades into a argument. Also, no one ever uses the science forum to post science related articles. They always post it in the chit-chat forum where I rarely read the articles.

Speaking of politically induced headaches whatever happened to SilenceNo More?

Im not sure but if you read the the chit-chat area we have a conspiracy theorist posting.
