I know that the CC chat (and the members there) don't always tend to discuss about topics related to wiki content, technical issues, etc...

But the majority of the users CC are on chat as the chat function is primarily a way for other members to connect with each other, thus some of these important questions that are asked in chat can sometimes be neglected to be answered.

While it is true that the above issue can be resolved by the OP directly messaging an admin (or a different staff) during chat, I do not think that actively allowing other users to keep the conversation off topic constantly, as well as the chat staying informal (especially at times when a relevant question related to the wiki is being asked) is a healthy way to foster the environment on chat.

So yea, all this was covered in the chat rules, but members generally need to keep the discussion on chat on-topic, for the convenience of other members who are willing to stay on-topic in chat.
