I just wanted to very quickly state that the new public chat feature is really cool. Love the idea, and love the potential it has to bring the community together. However, it is being abused. As opposed to the cool friendly chat room of great players that you would hope for it to be, it's a constant argument that never ends. It honestly ruins the vibe. People are constantly yelling at eachother about religion, some other random and pointless reason, or just the game itself. As a former moderator, (of a game unnamed) I feel that there is a lack of moderation in the public chatroom. Whenever I look into these senseless online agruments, I find myself drowining in a pit of screams with no way out. When I find myself in this scenario, I reach out in an effort to become "the way out" and make sure the game returns to a friendly environment once again. There does not appear to be any resistance to this. As a long-time player of Stick Empires, I personally feel this is an issue and would gladly help prevent it.

Have a comment on the matter? Feel free to enlighten us!
Thanks for reading :)

Problem is, a reporting system would get abused more than used properly.

The Islamophobia I've seen in that chat is also disgraceful :/

Something moderation wise does really need implementing, full support there.

What I find the most annoying is people constantly asking " Who has elemental/chaos?" " How do you get free membership?" etc.
Something should be done. And yes a reporting system would be abused because of all the stupid people out there.

I'd prefer if they would give certain trustworthy, responsible people to be an Admin and moderate the chat to make sure things stay under control.

Inb4 we need mods

We do need mods out there.

Well, when you're all done coding all the requirements, not to mention making the UI for these moderators, let me know.
Also, don't think Brock & CrazyJay are idiots. Moderators were/are planned, but it takes time.

Oh, of course. It's just a shame to know that the chat is largely not usable for quite a while before it will have proper moderation. When everyone is it complies it's quite nice, right now that's just a minority of the time.

That's not our job. I feel like they shouldn't have rushed this into the game without adding in a way to moderate the chat. That's just silly.

Yeah I also agree with Rain, they are just not organized and excited for the next feature to come out, the clan options were just ready and ready for implementing but IDK y they suddenly gained interest in armory and spectate live replays and this chat, IK UI takes time but still they should have make the chat out WITH the UI and moderation system and still they have not done anything. I can atleast say that to make the UI it does not take that much time they are taking

I agree with usman and rain, the only good new feature is the new armory which isn't as good as new in-game features. Speaking of new in-game features, they still haven't released the global spells and stuff. I find the spectate live replays just useless.

Global spells are retarded.

How can you say that when you haven't seen them yet?
Also they promised new map types. That would be really interesting and add a whole new dynamic to the gameplay.

Yes, global spells are retarded and I'm not even looking forward to those. I was just using that for an example of the new features.
Maybe I should've used the ones I was looking forward to: destructible rocks, multiple towers and new game modes.
If you think that's retarded as well then that's too bad.

i knew it was a matter of time before the word mod was brought back up
