Thread Name: BS: Mudchat Weighty Issues
Subject: RE: BS: Mudchat Weighty Issues
Hi Hilda Fish!

Artbrooks, since I'm usually serious, I thought that a chat room for 'weighty issues' was one in which people seiously discussed heavy duty subjects without intentionally added BS.

Since the word 'chat' implies to me light[weight] social conversation, maybe a 'chat room' isn't the best place for such serous conversations anyway...

I think that one of the benefits of BS posts is to provide opportunities for people who are often focused on serious matters, to forget serious matters for awhile- to relax, be witty, and have fun.

If this is even partly true, it might to some extent explain why it appears from some posts above that people aren't really using the 'weighty issues' chat rooms.

I'm just sayin...But what do I know? I'm just a newbie here..
