User blog comment:Rjazz/The (sad, sad) Chat Room/@comment-2224289-20120311121014

As mentioned here, this wiki's purposes are to work as an encyclopedia, not as a chatroom. This is supposed to be an information center for Battlefield sort of stuff, not a Battlefield social network (which DICE personally took care of it).

Not only that, we use Steam, Battlelog and PSN (for PS3 users) to chat on about our article development, without mentioning that Wikia gives us talk pages to discuss. So, with this much better system this wiki's community has in place, what would we earn with the IRC chat, which doesn't even notifies in any way when a message was sent?
