And there are plenty of other boards that we "could" use. But, CD is here for the FIRST community to use...it is the place to be...so, should we not be welcome?

At the risk of making this a "live chat", I still want to post this reply in here because I want everyone to read this and think about it.
Anyway, I don't think this is an issue of whether you are "welcomed" or not. Of course you are always welcome to make use of this forum. No need to ask.
I think a better way to approach this problem, isn't to get ride of it completely by stopping people from posting "chat threads", but to look at it from the webmaster's stand point. When you think like Brandon, you would think things like "how can we make sure the forum doesn't get clogged up by these threads that only few people are interested in?".
The easiest thing to do is to tell the thread starters "no you can't do this anymore. please do it some where else.", and a lot of us agree that that isn't the best solution. So, the next thing to do is to come up with ideas to make this work, instead of just saying "why aren't we welcomed?", which is what some of you did when you suggest to put image discussions in a seperate section.
For those of you who feel strongly about this, please understand that we have our frustration as well. We are not intentionally posting this to make you mad. We are only saying these to express our frustration, and looking for solutions that will make both side happy.
So, let's move on from the comments like "its not fair that we are being attacked for it" and start the problem solving phrase. Come on, aren't you experts in solvling problems?

*hint* robot *hint*.
And, if the owners of the Chief Delphi Forum feel that the threads aren't appropiate... Then, oh well, you should respect their wishes and continue them else where.
