Love it.

The realm chat kind of sucks in multiple ways. Arguably the forums and the ingame chats should just all be integrated into one unified communication paradigm providing entirely generic real-time communication with modern features e.g. likes/reacts, some manner of identity persistence of users, GUIs for basic actions, &c&c.

can you guess what was the first single word sentence sent in chat after someone mentioned it wasn't moderated? Hint, it started with "n".

Nidbane?

wait, hold up, I think I just got possessed by Händler
what if we could send nidbanes after misbehaving individuals in realm chats? ¦]
(or like, make it a realm owner-only kinda thing, or make a different kind of nidbane that just puts some fancy curse of silence on the offender)
okay, looks like the possession is coming undone, freedom at last :D

Yes, I'm a big proponent of expressing my thoughts verbally, but sometimes I just want to give a thumbs-up.
While kingdom chat has its advantages, a global chat would help many newcomers get their bearings, find neighbors, or find a village to join. In-game, not on the forum or in third-party chats—it's more convenient.

Realm chat is already invasive enough, if you do this please add the ability to opt out
