Thanks for your comments.
Online chat rooms, MSN, Skype, and other software that encourages 'live' chat are very different to forums. Comments are more brief and spontaneous, and the threads would be much, much longer.
Forums are here for the purpose of discussion and considered opinions. Yes it's chat and conversation, but in a very different form. We don't want to see comments things like, for example, 'How are you?'
'I'm fine, thanks, you?'
'I was drunk at the weekend.'
'LOL.'
Fortunately I haven't seen much of this, but just in case people would like to refer to our guidelines for forum use, we have stipulated that people do not use the forum for conversation such as this. I hope this helps.
