Sure, we're a community. We should work something out. We did. For the main site the chat has shutdown. The users have migrated to the other two wikis, most recently Spinpasta, which has the same basic rules Skelly has made as a draft if chat does happen to come back; which at this, albeit early, point, seems unlikely to happen. There are a few bumps here and there, but so far everything on all three sites has been better. Spinpasta's gotten an influx of actvity, as did Trollpasta and this site benefitted from being cleaner of drama and dick and fart jokes.

Quite frankly, how about we looks at the benefits and risks of not having versus having a chat and quit playing the blame game for who caused chat's problems? That seems like the more sensible approach to me. Callie, that's what we ARE doing. You made the threads. This is a thread dedicated to the benefits, that's why we're not listing the bad points here.
