>>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.

well - it's here and I don't spend anytime on facebook I guess hahaha. I wouldn't really miss the chatter section myself though. At one point we had a religion section that went bad (to the point the whole subject as banned) and the politics section seems to of gone bad as well - so it comes down to eventually having a whole list of banned subjects or just kill the whole section to begin with.
