Debate user hothead on if chat should be closed

[Judas Connor Moon]

Is user @hothead right? Should chyat be closed or is he just a nigger?

[Dan of Steel]

Someone get this hothead out of here!

Niggers.

I don't even use chat and I think that's a largely retarded idea. Only a mind filled with lard and tar would think that.

 

[Mortan Shekelstorm]

Just don't look at chyat maybe you can block it on your end in the browser so you cant look at it if it really bothers you.

Here's my argument to close chat having an unarchived Discord wannabe. Chat goes against the spirit of Kiwifarms and the archive everything mentality as it actively discourages posters from contributing to threads. and creates a sort of black hole of forum drama and entertainment that could be better used and archived in a thread.

afaik the sockchat cli client or whatever its called has the ability to log chat. If enough people ran it and consistently logged this wouldn't be an issue.

Not every stupid thing needs to be archived. Chat is made for the dumb and temporary. The pristine glory of curated threads are the sun stroked high points that sit above the ravenous jungle of constantly decomposing thoughts. Let the gladiators of retardation fight among their kin rather than funnel their rabid relentlessness upon properly organized threads.

but tons of informative posts about homies and forum lore are posted there. It's not just nigger lol being posted; it's potentially informative threads being flushed down the drain.

Sometimes I accidentally fat-finger the 'Chat' button and it opens up. Then I am reminded of it's purpose as a containment for ephemeral things that would otherwise be posted as forum messages.

So it's working well as intended. Taking the chyat hyperlink off the header of every single page and leaving it on the menu would be better tho, to save me from myself.

If something in chat rises to the level that it's worth a forum post, then make a forum post. If nobody does, then I guess it wasn't that important.

I'd rather read every Fatrick stalker meme than reading him making the 50th time childing someone on Xitter.

If any user is posting vital, relevant, worthwhile, understandable, discussable, etc information only in chat. Than they are failing as a person. Fundamentally. Banning chat doesn't solve this problem because most of the info you believe is relevant is worth zip zada none.
The only person you can rely on is yourself. Either archive what you should or stop whining about your woulds.

Do you really think people would post that stuff in threads instead if chat didn't exist? I'd argue that stuff is only posted there because of the casual nature of chat, not because they feel the need to post it somewhere and if they didn't have chat, they'd post it somewhere else instead.
