"Don't LoS"
"Purify me if you see a status effect [Sleep, full swing]"
"Use purify on yourself if you see full swing"
*Explains how stack works at start of match*
"Don't use b4b if 3 people are on you"

You took good advice and just construed it into trolling to prove your point. The exact meaning behind the quotes you said are the reason why we need chat, not every person says them the way you quoted. I'm personally harsh with veterans that should know better, but nice to new players.

I'm sure some people probably hear them negatively way more often though. Some people treat feast like a solo game, and that's exactly the same group of people like this change. Now these players can go blindly into battle and treat your teammates like trashy AI, just like these players who don't care always have. With the added bonus that they can now be ignorant of the frustration that they are causing. I think any disrespectful player not going into the match with a winning attitude, not doing their absolute best, and not playing with their teammates to the fullest probably loves this change.

Edit: the post I was replying to got removed.... This is awkward...
Lol, the post i was replying too got removed, it is why I did not quote it because I did not want my post to be removed for quoting it.

My experience is more toxic DF PvE then PvP, should we remove chat from all DF??
this situation was made for one reason, lazy in attacking the roots of the problem.
