I just looked into Steemit Chat for the first time today (it's my one week anniversary on Steemit, and I'm still finding all kinds of new things about it). I didn't spend much time on it, because chat rooms really aren't my thing, but I did think maybe I could develop some important friendships/partnerships there that may help my development on the main site. I'll probably look into it more deeply later.
The only thing I noticed in the brief time I was logged in there, was that there were a lot of people promoting their posts in the General section, where the instructions clearly say that's not allowed there. There's a Promote Your Post section for that. I didn't see anyone telling them they couldn't promote posts in the General section, though.
First, welcome to SteemIt! & glad to see you made it to SteemIt.chat ;)
There are a lot of people bonding there it's a great platform to generate the proper networking SteemIt requires.
As for posting in #general it says in the chatroom title no posts leave it in #postpromotional. Either way, if you have any questions def. hit me up! and enjoy!
Thanks for the welcome, @steemitqa! It's always nice to be made to feel at home on a new platform. I'm following you now, so I can find you again, in case I DO have a question. Things are still pretty new to me here, and I'm figuring out new things just by trial and error and exploring every day, so having a source to answer a question now and then for me is awesome. Thanks for the offer, and I just may take you up on it.
Dude.. you sure you were in PostPromotion? We usually are pretty quick about reminding you not to post there
