So you cut out an option (and mind you, this is dependent on the idea that a chat channel could be toggled off) because of what people -might- do?

It doesn't make sense to me.

Right now, communication in this game is hurting. Badly. People don't talk. Communication needs to be encouraged. Community needs to be encouraged. This is a fast, simple way to do it.

You don't like global chat? Fine. Toggle it off. It costs you nothing. So why deny this feature to others?
