    Global is largely based on mob effect.

    To get rid of it, you have to get rid of the one leading the mob.

    Let me give you an example

    I myself am harassed by many people, Which started because of religious discrimination.
    people troll and spout lies about me or my guild and claim they have evidence yet they never post it.
    This shows they are infact lying.

    Does anyone care that they wont present proof and show they are truthful? Not really. They just want to chime in as a "mob" effect, to "fit in".

    Grim came on and told people he'd ban them if they dident stop harassing me and my guild.
    Did that stop them? No.
    But one of the primary instigators have been or was banned. That killed a lot of it.

    By destroying the mob mentality, the solution is made.

    We have to keep in mid global will always have immature kids, and never really be the best place.

    The better option all together is to create recruitment channels, and trade channels, and leave the rest of chat to guild only.
    and enforce recruitment only spam / trade only spam in their respected channels.

    this will kill 99% of it.

    But as long as there is a global, we will have trolls etc. the only thing you can really do is control the amount / frequency of it.

    TO utterly stop it, will require 24 moderation, and that really can only be done by player volenteers.
    and even then problems arise so really you are just trading one thing for the next.

    can we get chat mods, in global-1, 24/7, armed with their banhammer, please? How much money would be required to make this happen? The place is a cesspool of drug talk, religions arguing, personal attacks, insults, facetious trolling, vulgarity due to filter bypassing and political debate.

    If getting mods to police global-1 isn't doable then perhaps charge for chat permissions in global-1. Give each player 2 free permissions per day, for global-1. When a player's permissions were all used up, they would have to either purchase more with gems or wait until the next day, and allow free permissions on the other channels.

    Something has to be done tho. Talk of prostitution and other criminal, unethical or immoral topics is completely out of control.
    These things I very firmly believe: -That government should butt out. -That freedom is our most precious commodity and if we are not eternally vigilant, government will take it all away. -That individual freedom demands individual responsibility. -That the tree of liberty needs to be watered from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. -That any group of people willing to give up a little freedom for a little organization will lose both and deserve neither.

    You think it is good?!!?!?! Boy! How you are mistaking. Asphy... whatever your name is, drug references are hurtful and the Administrators don't like it, and i think that, since they are in charge, we should listen to them and actually help them!

    On that same note: why is it so difficult to take your drugs, religion and racism to a more appropriate global channel like mods have requested over and over?

    pvp has nothing to do with it.

    No, it's not a war-game. You're deluded for even stating such a thing.

    Asking for a mod is the right thing to do. You saying otherwise is the beginnings of criminal mentality. stop all that. or save it at least.

    No one wants to hold hand, but we should be able to abide by the terms and agreements which we committed ourselves to when we created our accounts. You and everyone else are not being put out by being expected of such.

    "grow a set" whatever that means: translated into nothing but rebellion and ludicrously absurd banter.

    You do realize this stuff isn't a game for people who aren't white men and people are literally killed and such because of the very sentiments expressed in global chat right? And then they log on to CEO and it is all right there in their face.

    Perhaps it is you that needs to grow up and stop defending hurting people for a cheap laugh.

    I am not particularly bothered by things like drug chat, but the blatant racism and misogyny needs to stop.
