>I do understand you're point Marcia - one can always simply not subscribe to the chatter section or just not read certain posts - but it's supposed to be a tech forum - why turn it into a forum of chatter when there is facebook for that type of thing? The website owner can do whatever they want with it so no reason to take a vote on it - it's not up to us, it's up to the owner of the site.

Victor, responding to your point of "but it's supposed to be a tech forum" - that begs the question why you've posted in the chatter forum on these topics? You're not required to answer, but I think it's a fair question.
