    I use the shoutbox sometimes, it's useful to quickly chat if the server goes down or something is happening (ex. Event)

    I wouldn't necessarily do away with the shoutbox, but yes, I would say that there needs to be further enforcement of rules in the shoutbox. Lately it's been people spamming, complaining, and creating a scene. If that means adding violations in shoutbox to the criteria of a forum warning, then by all means, do it. I understand that this is a community and everyone is a part of it, but there are rules, and they need to be followed. And to be followed, they must be enforced. -1 to removal of shoutbox, but +1 to greater moderation of the shoutbox.

    Agree with Andrewkm, still I see your point oxwood. I think the best resolution is to moderate the shoutbox better/be stricter if needed.

    I'll be locking this because my goal has been accomplished in that the upper staff has taken a look at the issue and possible solutions. Thanks to all who replied and voiced their opinion.

    Locked.
