    Always great to read well-reasoned discussion from the Vampire Nation!

    Before I consider allowing enemies to chat with each other in PVP I am going to review the dozens and dozens of private messages and forum threads that consumed my time during 2018 and most of 2019. If I recall correctly, I instructed every reporting player to use the "Ignore" function, and literally every player refused. The reason being: if I 'ignore,' it doesn't keep that player from saying things to other players... and what I really want is for them to be punished / banned, etc. for insulting me (regardless of what insults I may have issued myself).

    If things stay as they are PVP popularity will suffer because players cannot trash talk their enemies. While this is not ideal, in my opinion this is acceptable because I don't have enough time to police all of the toxic rage chat and do meaningful development on new stuff at the same time.

    Looking forward to hearing your further thoughts on the matter :-)

    It Is essential. Especially in a game type like this. The chat was always a big part of it especially in pvp.
