General Chat Thread. (Discussion of the idea, not the actual thread.)

[Inagi]

I don't follow the concept of "There's no need" and "Spamming."

..Why not? Is it really that big of a deal?
People are so bent on old concepts of keeping a forum spam free that they have lost sight of what "Spam" really is.

As long as people are communing, what is the problem? Talking is talking, and as long as people are getting a long and enjoying what is spoken by everyone else, isn't that good?

Isn't that supposed to be part of a community?

Also, on the note of General Chat having any subject.
What about subjects that don't deserve a whole thread?
Like "Hey guys, I got a new PS3 today."
Then people start talking about PS3s and PS3 games, or games in general.

Then someone talks about something silly their cat did, and everyone laughs.
Those don't deserve real threads, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve to be said.
