Sketch

Until someone with real authority comes down on them, they can.

Sounds like some think they have authority and can say and do what they want.

Absolutely agree, however this forum is peppered with posts about the Chatbox, have a look around. It's an issue that never seems to get resolved.
The rules of the Chat were always flexible and worked on a principle of common courtesy, such as saying Hello when you enter so that folks know that you are there, likewise when you leave.
Also about the use of language etc. What would be acceptable in a social setting, not would be acceptable with your mates in a bar or sports club or the factory floor.
The same goes for racism,bigotry,homophobia etc, because someone might find it offensive.
The Chat always revolved around whatever was an ongoing hot topic,so if you wanted to start chatting about your new car or the weather or whatever, whilst something was ongoing, that was frowned upon,obviously.
However when things were dead we would chat about anything under the sun,help each other out with stuff,and most importantly have a laugh with our forum mates.
It was always inclusive,there were no cliques,everyone was welcomed and Newbies were given help & advice.
The problem I have with the Chat at the moment is that it centers around a few rlc apartments only,that is fine if there is something going on.
But I do have an issue with folks with an agenda, or in some cases obsession, trying to score points.
Their pursuit of their theory about something seems to override everyone else,and there is no point in trying to offer a different perspective.
In their view they have a superior intellect to you, and you are a moron.
What I am getting at is this, if you have a theory about,for instance, a cuckold relationship that you see at Masha,Sash & Dash,then ok.
Write it up and post it on their fan page so that a discussion can be had there, where others can read it and maybe learn something, and even comment about it, and get involved.
Someone once said, "Opinions are like assholes.Everyone has got one." I will defend the right for members to voice their opinion on this forum.
But for god sake stop taking over the chat about your pet subject,move it to a fan page.
There are others on this forum that like the communal aspect of the chat, but can't get a word in sideways because three or four people are obsessing about the Barca girls.
It is up to us members to do something about this issue. Or we could just let it fester like it has done before.
 

Most of the time it's just speculation and some members try to assert their authority ~ Sad how some new members feel they have to have the same opinions and say exactly the same thing as the popular ones do just to fit in.

And some of the members then wonder why not many others are on chat when they are on: because the lunacy goes so far it is just ridiculous to even try to counter it.

Five Important Qualities.
1. It's important to have a woman, who helps at home, who cooks from time to time, cleans up and has a job.
2. It's important to have a woman, who can make you laugh.
3. It's important to have a woman, who you can trust and who doesn't lie to you.
4. It's important to have a woman, who is good in bed and who likes to be with you.
5. It's very, very important that these four women do not know each other.

A husband was not home at his usual hour, and the wife was fuming, as the clock ticked later and later. Finally, about 3am she heard a noise at the front door, and as she stood at the top of the stairs, there was her husband drunk as a skunk, trying to navigate the stairs.
" Do you realise what time it is? " she asked.
He answered, " Don't get excited. I'm late because I bought something for the house."
Immediately her attitude changed, and she ran down the stairs to meet him halfway, she asked, "What did you buy for the house, dear? "
His answer was, " A round of drinks! "

A man speaks frantically into the phone, "My wife is pregnant, and her contractions are only two minutes apart!"
"Is this her first child?" the doctor queries.
"No, you idiot!" the man shouts. "This is her husband!"

We went to see a movie the other night. I sat in an aisle seat as I usually do because it feels little roomier. Just as the feature was about to start, a blonde from the centre of the row got up and started working her way out.
"Excuse me, sorry, ooops, excuse me, pardon me, gotta hurry, ooops, excuse me."
By the time she got to me, I was trying to look around her and I was little impatient, so I said, "Couldn't you have done this little earlier?"
"No!" she said in a loud whisper. "The TURN OFF YOUR CELL PHONE PLEASE' message just flashed up on the screen and mine is in the car."

Definition of opinion (according to the Chatbox Dictionary) - I am right, you are wrong

If we all liked the same would be a boring world.

Not worth the time and much more fun to ridicule them.
