A responsible admin with nothing better to do would have to moderate the chat or cancerous users would make a mess of the whole thing. I don't think anyone has the time or mental energy for that. It's like opening a pandora's box. The kind of randos that come to this wiki for attention would ruin whatever positive things you think the chat would bring to your life. It seems like a fun idea, but the reality is much darker because people have no respect or self control. Just look at the comments on the most well known pastas and you'll understand why chat is a bad idea.

To add onto this, I’d like to point out the (thankfully now removed) tons of spam pages that kept getting posted back in January. We still get one or two now, but most of the pages deleted are serious attempts that sadly just don’t meet Quality Standards.
