    Chatting while Crafting

    Greetings

    I know how many of you have been asking to be able to chat while crafting and we have some good news for you. (Talking while on the job; this is the definition of a slacker by the way! ...I kid, I kid.)

    Q: After crafting is over, when I go to input text, all the text I put in before is totally lost. Why is this happening?
    It is difficult to explain why, but we are definitely aware that this is extremely inconvenient. We are looking into editing the problem where when starting to craft, and other situations, the chat log is forced to become inactive and the text that was previously input is lost. Once we finalize the adjustment we will make further announcements.

    It never bothered me because I just select the chat box and press UP on the direction keys and it brings back what I previously typed. This is good though, it was a little annoying sometimes.

    I always felt that when the chat input box would forcibly clear when crafting was like getting your hands swatted with a stick and its all like "NO TALK! YOU CRAFT!"

    T.T fine *continues mashing enter and gazing into space*

    Easiest and most effective method would be to simply get rid of the completely unnecessary timer. Then we could actually stop midcraft to type easily.
