I just finally found the forum chat box (I'm slow) but wish there could be something similar in game.
Imagine a 'lounge' were it's a smallish room were about 6-10 people can go into and ask questions or chat. Better than noobs being drowned out in FH or trying to follow your conversation amid three others. Also means you can look around and ask for others to go farm without exiting program, going in forum, ask, wait, go back in. In game mini-forum. Every different area can have it's own look, and I would love to check out lost expedition igloo. Maybe even buyable...

Just thought of other ideas while writing... Password locked lounges can be for actual guilds. As soon as they put in semi-customizable names into hosted games, it would be feasible.

Maybe the Oasis town could have strange alien technology, like computers you can access the PL forum and chat box from? Anyway, interesting. I think they are planning the "player housing" to be mainly for guilds (at least that was the impression I got from dev comments a while back), though I hope we can get individual accommodations as well.

I've found I just click on a random player and use the chatbox there, it has scroll up down arrows.

You can scroll the regular chat box as well, but you have to tap the chat button (open the keyboard) to get the arrows.
