Hello Mastodon! What do we think about people doing ragchews when SOTAing/other awarding?
Myself, I think if you're calling an award you should be aware that either the CQ or you alerting online is going to make people's desktop PCs and smartphones buzz (if they're set up for that). Chatting for minutes at a time when folk are waiting is such a frustrating waste of time.
I've just given up on a 1 point chase after ten minutes. It's 1 point, screw that. I have things to do.
