In seriousness though, I agree. The CCCrew has done the best they could despite the incessant trolls, spammers, and other nuisances popping in every few minutes. I can't blame staff for removing a feature that, despite having good intentions (helping new users and the like), turned into more of a playground than a conduit for help.

People don't like change, this thread is proof of that in itself. You can gripe and complain all you want that Chat is gone but ultimately the change was for the best. There isn't a question that could be asked there that couldn't be posted on the Forums and answered relatively quickly. I'll take a wild guess and say at least half of the most popular topics across Fandom have dedicated Discord servers anyway, which is a better socialisation platform than CCChat ever was. If the main complaints are that "we can't socialise anymore", there are plenty of servers out there where you can.
