I got it excited because I noticed chat was gone. I guess it's back now.

You know, getting rid of chat won't make users start editing, but you know what it might do. . .it might make people with user rights do their jobs.

A big reason I stepped down wasn't because of bad writers. It was part of it, but not the majority. The biggest part of it was watching people who asked for rights just sit on chat and neglect the site while I tried to get things done.

The argument that the site is less productive without a chat is ridiculous. There's a forum, there's talk pages, there's a dozen pages to reference if someone has a question about proper procedure.
