Because a "chat" room is in real time a Mod would have to be on it at all times, and I spend enough time on here as it is........For free........

Babysitting a chat room is not what I come here for.....................

I stay on here 4-8 hrs a day...lol

I agree with B....make it like the club.....that would cut down on the hassle...

There are also controls that would filter out bad language(Runescape rpg game uses one)
