6. Serious debates are emasculated by chat like discussions, a lot of which are not even remotely related to the issue under discussion. Someone suggested that a chat room be created to solve this “problem”. I can’t agree more. I must however commend everyone for exhibiting an abnormally high degree of integrity and making the forum free of abusive language like in many other blogs QUOTE] [QUOTE] Someone suggested that a chat room be created to solve this “problem”.

Until then, bring all your "Chat-like" discussions here. Please, let us try to concentrate on a particular topic. We can always create more.
who was happening where... what was happening when... who did what? with whom? when? where?.... who called who.... who tanked how many bottles.... who fought...
it'd be really nice to have all the hot gossip in the one place. We try and have some order here.
Sometimes I think that it's hard for the "visitors" to join (and they fail to) because these discussions are personalised by the old members.

On a daily basis, I count about 3-10 joiners (those who actually register as new members), yet the number of new topics and contributions have actually shrank. I would have expected the reverse. I am yet to mention the many guests up there. 3. The permanent guests who have outlived their stay. You can never be a guest the whole year round. Even the security conscious occasionally pretend to make a technical appearance
They don't do it by choice. Happens to "Maria" too. I try to contribute but wouldnt as much as i would have wanted because some replies are directed to specific people. (although i'd do the same-guilty ) let us please try.
