I have been off this forum for a few yrs now. To be honest the reason I left it was because I felt the quality of posts and threads etc has deteriorated However I am pleasantly surprised by what I have seen the last few days. Wow, in fact . The quality of the posts are excellent, the content is excellent etc. This new 'like' system is a masterstroke . It seems everyone now is trying to produce good content, provide good and relevant answers, provide helpful content etc. That is a the way a good forum should be and I predict that the way DP is going it will soon reclaim the top spot for I.M. Forums Well done to all concerned !
"General Chat" forum is by design meant to be boring, and it fulfills it's mandate well. This particular forum is all about light hearted banter. There must be a place for this. There are afterall young inexperienced members here who cannot yet add to the technical forums. They also should have a place, and General Chat is here for them. It's all subjective, some of the threads are rather amusing and can be a lot of fun at times. Others are well...just plain crap, it can't be denied.
There are an alful lot of duplicate threads there such as Coke or Pepsi What is love? ... When you see a duplicate thread please use the bad post report to alert us.
