I have missed this type of forum. Once Discord came along we lost the forum for off topic. Discord is too immediate and a bit chaotic for me. I like the unhurried aspect of posting/replying on a Freedom of Speech like platform. Plus, while it's great to be posting on code issues, many times you do need to get your mind off it, and emerge yourself into something totally different just to rest the coding grey cells. 

Thanks for bring this back Steve.

It's also excellent for posting things like, "Guys, I'm going to be away for the next two weeks while on vacation, so don't think I'm just ignoring you and trying to piss you off."  In this new age of internet time, anyone who doesn't respond to a post/inquiry in two minutes is just being hateful!!  Forums don't work like that, as you said, and I for one am happy about that.  I too am all for the unhurried aspect of having time to go grab a cup of coffee and a sandwich, before having to instantly respond.  People just somehow seem a lot more patient when it comes to talking and socializing over a forum, than over some instant chat like Discord.  Smile

So how do "ordinary" (read "thinking") members see those "I'm away on holidays" posts?   Huh
