The chat threads were created because everyone was getting so upset that the mods were required to delete/move anything that was off topic of a certain thread or wasn't directly related to the city the thread was in, while trying to keep these city forums organized so people looking for info could get the info (of course without all the adds/spam and crud) without the subject changing all the time.
The chat threads can be for letting your neighbors know what local events are coming up in your area, getting to know your neighbors,who's birthday it is, sharing family milestones, who locally likes dogs as much as you do, who shops where and for what, how/when you put in a garden or what ever. That is the point, it doesn't have to have a point, just people being friendly with other people. People get friendly on internet forums no matter where they live and like to talk with each other when they find that connection to other like minded folks.
Some cities utilize the chat thread a lot, some don't, it really isn't a competition, it's all good.
I guess I am a bit cranky too because it seems like these days no matter how hard this site tries to be what everyone wants and needs as far as information sharing and such, someone is always complaining about what it is not.
As Abe Lincoln said: "You can please some of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can not please all of the people all of the time."
Actually, I was reacting to some of the people that no longer post on here. They've been a bit upset and I should have just shut my mouth. I don't care. Just forget I wrote any of it. It was never my fight and I need to mind my own business. I've been on here long enough to know what a chat thread is for. I have no idea why I even wrote it. I don't care who is on here. I guess the recession is getting to me.

Just dropping by to say hi, been really busy lately, very involved with our Senior Center and spend most of my time there, of course still have some other friendships I made on here that I treasure and with people I still see. Other than that just wanted to say hi to anyone out there "lurking"

Enjoy the day,

Hi Gailli,
Good to see you on here again. Glad that things are going well for you and sounds like you are enjoying life and that is great! Don't be such a stranger though.

Thanks MB, I'll try to get back more often. Been going to some of the Smokies games, went last night, they are a lot of fun and I really enjoy them. Football season is upon us too and I cant wait, I am starting to really get withdrawals.

I had the flu over the weekend, boy, thought I made it through without getting it but I was wrong, thankfully I'm on a road to recovery.

Bones, I would never call you a lurker,

Hi Pam and Bill and Hik and everyone else, hope all is good for all of you.
