It does not cause me turmoil at all. As I said, it annoys me. I do not plan to stop viewing forums as I enjoy the topics and learn a lot.

Thanks for your reply. You nailed it. That is exactly what I feel about it.
Perhaps these members should petition for the Chat feature to return so they have a place to do this and not take away from otherwise good threads.

I visit ATS daily. I don't post a whole lot but I like to read over a lot of threads and when I see a lot of replies in one I figure that there must be an interesting discussion going on. Then I start reading and see usually by the second page there is a lot of back and forth chit chat going on between some members. The first comment will relate to the topic and a sarcastic joke or comment. Then others will respond to that, and the back and forth idle chit chat starts.
