I completely disagree for the chat's removal. I'll tell you why as well.

This all just sounds like a way to seperate the community for no good reason. I know that it's a temporary thing, but I whole heartedly feel that many veteran admins need to open up. This is getting to the point where I feel that they should be demoted for refusing such a thing.

This is simply because they lack the commitment in their community and hell I barely see half of them editing.

But that's besides the point, why this is so serious to me is because the Chat is the only way the "community" can get together. A blog or two to say "hi" or chat just sounds way too dated, and eventually it's what people would come to.

While I do agree with what's put here, with all the activity increase or so. But it's just not justifiable, you as a user should blame it on yourself, rather than an application used for talking. Especially when you can simply say "I'm busy, I'll get back to you".

It all sounds wrong for a decent cause. Even then, with things like a chat, people can share characters for slight reviews amongst each other. This adds a connective community, willing to talk about character issues n such. Thus, allowing us to bond in a way we've never before.

With collective crticism and the combination of user friendliness, such communitve issues should be decently patched (not saying that they will be).

Removing the chat just seems to enforce people to become creative or to put up something just cause they're that bored. We should not enforce things, instead we should encourage them. Simply put, removing the chat would just force people to edit cause of how bored they are.

So instead of removing the chat, we should use it as a community get together. As stated earlier, to critique stuff and negotiate certain things. That's just how I feel about this.
