What is chatting?!
Question: Do they have a filter that picks up on certain "chatty" words? What are they? Is "chatting" one of them? Am I going to get violated for this question? I'm tired of making the same mistakes over and over again... I'm starting to get a complex. I can't even make small talk in line at the store without fear of being violated.. people wonder why I've always got to have my hands shielding my backside. No one makes eye contact with me anymore... my neighbors turn and run when they see me coming.
Is there a code? There has to be a code. Somebody write a book about the code...

What's struck me as incredibly absurd about the whole "chattiing" violation (and I'm a master at spotting the absurd) is that...
Someone asking an individual a question, and that individual answering that question (in real life) is one of many forms of "chatting..."
A "chat" with a neighbor might involve "asking" them about a recipe, and them "answering" the recipe inquiry. A guy asking his neighbor a "car repair" question while standing in the driveway, and his neighbor "answering" his car repair question is the equivalent of two neighbors "chatting..."
So...I wonder if there are answerers on here that report someone and give the reason as "chatting," because I find it hard to believe they could have an "automated" program that would be able to distinguish "chatting," since almost anything on here could be interpreted as "chatting..."
(Now...I just want to put in the word "chatting" in quotation marks one more time, okay?)
"Chatting..." (There...I feel so much better now...thank you letting me get that "chatting" vent off my chest...hope this helped, and Doop!)
Gotta go now...we'll "chat" later...see ya'...
I've asked myself that very question but I still can't figure out the true definition...according to yahoo
haaaa! i feel your pain! i never answer my phone anymore!
I had a question deleted today that was -pardon me do you have any grey poupon....they said the violation was chatting....I don't get it...but yet there are questions on here that are racey and they don't get deleted. Go figure. I wish I knew what the code was too....
I believe the formal definition is "any word or grouping of words that is followed by a question mark."
GCG is correct
Hmmm..... What do you think it is?? ....and How does that make you feel???
(slaps youhard in the face) "control yourself women!" I am sorry it was the only way....
I can also tell you that a yes or no question is chatting!
Fear of being violated and shielding your backside? You might be pregnant. Or afraid of getting pregnant.
Who is turning us in for chatting? Not that we are chatting - we are not. You asked and I am answering very legitimate questions. So, there. lurker jerk.
Question=chatting
Trust me I know
did you smack a question mark at the end of your question? ... chatting
damnit I did the question mark thing ... thats two times the chat
a catch all phrase
Yahoo!Answers reminds me of being in school...both frown upon chatting.
The oxymoron here is that many questions find answers thorough random conversations (chatting) by picking the brains of others. Another's thought could be the light bulb moment you were looking for.
Whatever happened to "There is no such thing as a dumb question?"
