Place To Hang Out and Chew Fat

[KaveMan]

Have a suggestion for the site...a place techs can just hang out, chew the fat, get to know one another, compare stories, fixes, adventures or seek support. Not a fixit forum, but maybe more like the local bar, where a tech can sidle on up, grab a cold one and bloviate...Like a first class chat room minus body odor...

That's correct, we used to have a forum called the 40 Watt Club, which was exactly what you were suggesting. We loved having a place where the techs of our community could hang out and talk about things outside of the appliance world, but unfortunately, some people got too worked up about things being discussed there, and the place became more of a negative than a positive. In the end, as much as we wanted to keep it going, we decided it was for the best to close the forum.

Because nowadays in America, people think they have a constitutional  right to not be offended.  And if you disagree with them on any point- they consider it hatred. People don't know whether theyre boys are girls anymore and Anything Goes except saying something is wrong.
