I've been here for a long time, and I don't even know what moving it to chat means. I hit latest articles, and this was there. I hit latest posts, and this was there. Why should I care if it is officially classified as chat or not?

I'd like to know too. I've had some of my posts sent to "Chat", but I don't know what the heck it is. I'm not complaining mind you, I'd just like to know what it is.

For that matter, there's a lot I don't understand here as far as how the forums are laid out and what crosses over to what. The only thing I do when I come here is click on "Latest Posts". Maybe I'm missing out on other parts of the site. I don't know. And I've yet to find a Help page that explains it all.

Chat is a forum for articles that really do not meet the intent of FR. Articles that are news, but don't really have a political impact. Also vanity type threads.

This is why I hate Chat. It confuses too many people. I liked to see ALL THE ARTICLES AT ONCE, before there was a "chat."

But then, I'm just a big baby ...

Look up in the right hand corner of the Latest Post page and you'll see the following list. That is a list of the different forums...... each is unique or seperate from the others.... The only think that I'm aware of that crosses forums is a Ping to a poster.... Each of the Forums has it's own "latest post" page and "thread page"...... Most of the people follow the "News/Activism" Forum which is what you are on right now.

Here are the other Forums..... (click on each one and see what you get, but remember to get back here you'll have to click on "news/activism")....
