Hoping for moderation on global chat for poe 2

Global chat 1 for poe 1 pretty much made me just go to hardcore alone. I don't think people are even playing the game, just using it as a chatroom for off topic discussions that are very toxic and rated R.

I don't see how this is not moderated. This should 100% not be allowed. I would not let my kids play this game just on the chat alone. There's people talking about mass shootings and killings kids in school in the global chat. If it's like this for poe 2 you can rest assured A LOT of parents will be pulling their kids from this game.

Please moderate these global chats and maybe clean it up a bit. POE 2 should not be like this.

If people were actually discussing the game I wouldn't be logging out. I'm so disgusted by what I'm witnessing take place in poe global chat that I'm honestly just turning the game off for the night. I'll go back to hardcore tomorrow when my friends log on, but you can't even find anyone to play with. It's just toxic discussions about random nonsense that isn't even related to the game. Kind of puts me off from poe 1. I am now remembering why I stopped playing this game to begin with.

I'm with you on this, but logging off because of chat is silly tho

While adequate moderation should be in place, you have a few options to help yourself and others -
1) mute them
2) report them


I've had similar issue with global chat, people kept saying nonsense and i just took 10minutes to mute everyone
After some time - the chat went from inadequate to adequate


About kids tho, we're not talking about 9 year olds right?

If its 13+ then let's remember ourselves. We've been in cesspools and look we're doing okay (hopefully)

i am not with you stop crying , you went to different league coz you dont like the chat? you know you can leave any chat room you want?

and there are many globals (1-10000) , some of the higher numbers have less people and normal talks , brother you chose to join global 1 or 2
where most people are spamming and then complain , you are the problem.

why would you ever go on global chat? only cringe there just chat wiht your guild mates i have never enabled global chat in past 5 years in PoE

Pretty much this, there are so many globals to pick from, if not single of them is good enough for you, the chat might not be the actual problem. It is at least good that you found a way and decided to disable global chat.

I for one do not want to hear only "exalted orb dropped" "gz" "gz" "gz"
"chaos orb dropped yay" "gz" "gz" "gz"

because I like to use the social functions to socialize, find guild mates, give away items, help with builds, share maps, or even talk about the dinner, other games or anime.


There are whole global chats dedicated to single thing, like necromancer gameplay and related spectre sharing. Map sharing, hideout sales, carry services etc.

And to "i would not let my kids play" do not, kids should not play any online game.
Path of exile has nudity, gore, and violence. If it had rating it would be 17 or 18+ depending on your location It is kinda weird that you would let them play if your chat experience was better.

no kids should play poe 1 and given the trailer of poe 2, even less kids should play poe 2

POE is not a game for kids.

It is tagged as mature, with horror scenes, Violence and nudity.

So yeah, please pull your kids out of here, they don't belong here anyway.
And Teenagers? most of the people discussing that indencent shit are teenagers ;)

Game chat is not mandatory and can be switched off.
Individual people can be muted.
Chat "moderation" is a VERY thin line in what we should block/hide and what not. Opinion might differ A LOT here.

I would be for muting people who are just spamming or writing non-readable letters and spam stuff. As well as those posting ads/links. There are usually just a few and those are easily muted individually.

However, I wouldn't mute those who are able to express their minds, however evil they might be. I strongly disagree with them, but muting such people is just hiding a problem. Often times someone will talk with them and try to set things right, that is in the end helpful.

For the above reasons, I'd vote for no moderation.

Moderate spam, but keep moderations when it comes to opinions to a minimum. Follow the law, but preserve freedom of speech. Offense is taken, not given.
