    Very constructive. I especially like how you had a clear message with in depth reasoning for it and the perfect solution for how to resolve this issue.

    This is a good example of a bad way to make a forum post people.

    yes all factions cross chat now, with a game designed around fighting the other alliances.

    needless to say, chat has become very toxic

    lol I log into reaper's march and the first thing I see is "DC RULES, EP AND AD SUXXXX"
    Then more DC guys chimed in "YEAH DC BEST DOWN WITH THE REST".

    If that's what you're talking about OP, I'm sure it will calm down over time. Just let people adjust to this one tamriel thing

    I'm still waiting to login to Cyrodiil, stand atop a keep and yell to the peons below:

    "You mother was a hamster!!"
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    It was like that at release too, only people made new characters to do that. They will shut up eventually.

    Although, maybe we could have an alliance-only zone chat channel, like we have language-specific zone chat channels. Want to talk to your alliance only, use /zonealliance. Want to reach a bigger number of people by talking to everybody, just /zone.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Spoiler
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    That's trifling, when you consider that consoles will have cross faction *voice*.

    Your 'toxic' has built in thresholds that filter out the most spurious of comments. People have to type things in and then have a chance to abort mission before they hit enter.

    You have your 'shouting' matches and be able to have Beethoven playing softly in the background while tapping the keyboard with caps lock. We will be having actual shouting matches where a neighbor could hear frightening threats of a duel through an open window.

    The age of smack talk is nearly upon the console crowd.
