What about Moderators?

I know!

It's too late. The low-life scum have taken over.
Any mods would gouge their own eyes out with a rusty spoon within an hour.
Might as well just accept that the lowest common denominator of human behavior now rules the chat.
Even with the new mystery mod who pops in banning people, it has not helped as he/she is banning people for saying "pot" or "String Bikini", while the regular malefactors can type in the most depraved things with seeming impunity.
It's too little, too late. It has been ignored for too long and will never be fixed.
Enter Global-1 at your own risk.

Don't be such a defeatist, nothing is over till its over. With that attitude you will lose in pvp even with all you thousands of troops

The problem as far as I can tell, happens mostly late at night when all of Ubisoft's paid employees are done with their shifts and have gone home. Global gets ugly after hours and there is no way to fix it other than shutting down the chat server or hiring a skeleton crew to moderate the chat (which will never happen).

As pessimistic as SirRoy's comments are, they also very realistic. I don't see a solution that's do-able for everyone.

Do you really think hiring a single moderator for overnight will break the bank of a company like Ubisoft? There's even multiple moderators already, and I'm pretty sure the talk about how awesomely funny D. violence and r*** are, and the common theme of degrading anyone whose skin is darker than a white crayon in the default chat tab everyone sees when they log on is driving away a lot of people who might otherwise pay money.

Also, it's pretty ugly DURING business hours too.

I really want moderators for the chat, not only for global, but also for help. Sometimes people jump into Help and advertise. Not only that, some of them even troll those who r really helping others, and some are misleading other players. That is really frustrating. Not to mention how global-1 is annoying. Some people even said, talking in global will lower ur IQ. I can't agree more with it.

Why don't people use some other globals for non-game stuffs and that's what the rules of CEO say I think. So a moderator's task is simple, just keep the global-1 clean and move those conversations to some other tabs. If CEO can't hire some, there r many players who will volunteer for this. Why not they try out their community's wish......

Agree with this 100%

This is something I agree with. and also its not to late to do something about the state of global.

Selling chat permissions for global-1 is the self-policing answer. Let every player have 2 every day for free. Heck, even 5. the trolls will use all theirs up in no time. upstanding players will likely end up with a surplus of chat permissions.

If all your chat permissions are used up, sell them in the gem store for 5 gems each. Give them as rewards for adventures, also, even. either way, it certainly limits how much trolling and ranting can be done and for how long. This would force players to go to a different channel with their drugs, prostitutional *** talk, religions and governmental opinions that are being forced and/or thrown around in global-1 all day ever day and into the night and back again.

Help tab could also be limited in this same manner. After level 17 or level 18, make it cost a permission to chat there. Helpful people would have no problems using a permission to be helpful, or using whisper to answer various questions.

This has been implemented on many games and is the only realistic, cost effective resolution to the currently out of control global-1 disaster.

I do not agree, if you do that, then we will have trolls in Guild chat, even worse, and that would not make it any fun for the players, because they could not chat while they were waiting for whatever.
