Ghosting thats what I said D:
Lol, sorry dude but I was just pasting what I had already said the other day from another thread. Our times just seem to have matched up
In my experience, general chats are meant to be used for just that, general chat. Random people in all parts of the map talking about whatever they want. It usually makes for a fun community just chatting together from all around.
I'm being swayed a bit, just by this sort of thing. I kinda take back what I said about not/minute conversing in General.
I think...I guess conversing would be considered ok. Just as long as it doesn't turn into something stupid/spammy/obscene/etc.
I guess I just see so much of it, it makes you want to restrict what goes on in General. But eh, I guess that's what hiding chats and the block button is for. Even though it doesnt fully get rid of the morons.
Thanks, Draak, its nice to see that you have an open mind about this situation.
In fact, I think that Draak gives a good example of what is causing disagreements between what should and shouldn't be on the general chat thread.
It seems that one of the reasons people are against chatting on general is simply because of the horrid spamming and inappropriate things that some immature players have been posting on it lately. However, I believe it is important to separate these issues. Spamming and chatting CAN go hand in hand, but they are mutually exclusive. You can chat without spamming and spam without chatting.
Obviously spamming should not be tolerated on general, especially inappropriate spamming. I am sure that EVERYONE agrees with this. However, its important to not let your dislike of spamming make you feel like all chatting will degenerate into that.
We do have a good community who can chat and have nice fun conversations with each other, lets not forget that because we have a few nasty apples in the bunch
