For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.chatter bank was removed because it created so many problems - if you chat in the body and soul section then people's questions will be removed from the front page of the site with the typical - hello - and -where is everyone- questions... it is nice to get to know people but i think everyone can agree that the chat site didn't work as people couldn't be trusted to be polite, not attack each other, not swear etc etc and then go crying to the ed to sort it all out...
i didn't complain - but i do think they should bring chatterbank back - it is nice to just have the topics as what they are rather than say random questions like 'how are you' which don't necessarily have much to do with the topic title.
but keep posting the chat then maybe they will reinstate CB!
I personally would rather go to a dedicated chat site to chat rather than use AB, but thats just me, I know some people like more of a social interaction on AB. I never really used CB - I use AB as a source of knowledge and somewhere to help people out with their questions. I use other places for anything else. but thats just me!
Hello
As long as you are nice and the threads aren't posted all over the site - it is fine. Threads in the old ChatterBank category almost always ended up abusive. Try however, to limit the threads if you are going to say the same thing - it is better to have a long thread with numerous good natured posts than many threads all saying, "hi".
Welcome to the ole AB!
