Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

@JoeySteel is truly legendary as he was a top-tier power poster who was banned over three years ago, so only the oldest posters remember him.
Still has some of the best effort posts on this site tbh
Why did they ban him?
Sectarianism. And tbf, he could get pretty sectarian. No one wanted to ban him, we all loved the posts. But the site is committed to not being sectarian like that, so at some point it was just too much.
Who he did dunk on?
IIRC anarchists. Not fake libs who call themselves “anarchists” but actual anarchist comrades.
As an anarchish, I was against this ban.
