When someone leaves a group chat

Without Explanation. Is it rude to leave a group chat without explaining?
Of you don't explain, the general consensus is that someone has pissed you off?? And you leave without explanation? Is this right?
This happens across many chat groups. So is this the done thing, or
Is it just rude?

In ours its usually as they can't make the date we are all meeting up so leave so they don't receive the subsequent messages that are irrelevant to them.

Why would you do that, Jayay? Confused. He must think you’re a monumental pain in the arse.

Better that that being kicked out like I was 😣. They created a new one without me in it. I’ll never get into another one.

I started a group chat for my birthday night out one year. A couple of people couldn’t make it, so left the chat. That’s fine; why would you want a load of messages about an event you can’t attend?

However, one woman just left without even acknowledging the invitation. Now THAT was rude. Still, she had a really bad haircut about three weeks later, which gave me some comfort.

My nephew, 28yrs old, does this all the time. We are very close btw. We have several family group chats with different topics Hmm amongst our family. Every time a new group is set up he leaves as it drives him mad, I want him to feel included, his mum lives abroad. So I just keep re adding him! I get whiney messages asking "do I have to be in this group " yup pal if I have to suffer so do you Grin

You ‘want him to feel included’ in something you know he hates? Why, for God’s sake?

In the nicest possible way @Jayaywhynot that does make you sound like an absolute pain in the arse. I’d be pissed right off with you!
Depends on the chat really OP as others have said.
