Trade chat is the root of all evil.

Itā€™s the one common den of evil across all servers and factions. Itā€™s almost as bad as political ads on Youtube.

There are lesser evils though, and I think the Allianceā€™s ā€œwatch aggressor bumble his way through adolescenceā€ is preferable to the hordeā€™s alt-right party zone chat

Eeeeh. Whats sad is the Alliance trade is also the alt-right party zone when I log onto my warrior. I gave up on trying to pin a ā€˜lesser of two evilsā€™ on either and resolved to 'Yall suck, into the dust bin."

Tbh, I leave trade chat on because it can be rather entertaining sometime. If I see some crazy stuff going on, Iā€™d take out my popcorn and watch it going down.

I canā€™t believe forcibly putting hundreds of bored strangers together with zero accountability or consequence doesnā€™t result in a bastion of calm, intelligent discussion.

Every MMO I have ever played with a general chat has this problem. Itā€™s just a human thing.

Welcome to trade chat.

I remember the GOOD OLD DAYS when trade chat was used for the wholesome activity of ascertaining if any nam vets were on

Yeah I turn off trade chat 99% of the time but sometimes I forget on new alts. Alliance trade chat is always dumb and sometimes thereā€™s a transphobe or something but Horde-side has had like, full on alt-right /pol/ creepers.

Idk, I donā€™t hide it because I like asking class questions and seeing the answers. Youā€™d be surprised with how helpful folks that are just reading the chat go by just jump in on those questions and like to help folks out.

did trade chat ever actually get used for trade at any point in this gameā€™s lifespan or was that just a bad trip I had once

I remember folks selling a lot of materials in bulk in past expansions :woman_shrugging: Basically, the last time professions outside of Alchemy and Enchanting is when I remember it being used.
