truthfully questions like this is what the new comers forum is for,but the chat box was being abused and they got rid of it,and that's all you need to know.

It was being abused... it also deprives the site of activity if everyone is chatting.

There is another chat box on the blog for AG...or was it the wiki? I can't remember. But there is a link on my profile under useful links. No one is ever logged in though.
But yeah, there was massive spam and swearing all the time so it died out.

Though you did have the ability to block people, the language was way out of hand for a PG13 site. The chat was not really created by the AG team (they used a different site for the chat, hard to explain) and therefore had little control of what they could do.

ok, sorry to say this but there has been dozens of this kind of thread so this will be locked
the problem was... problems
There were to many problems concerning with chat
So AG hopes to fix this and re add it to the community

Yeah... it was just being abused...

However, there is an unofficial AG chat, I'm pretty sure you can find the link to it on Carlie's about.

PS: Choazmachine, you can't say that this will be locked... that is back-seat modding.
