How about a general chat box for lichessTV?

I dont know whether it is tried or not. Optional chat box for lichessTV like in a game would be entertaining.
Avoiding Adobe Flash is always good, so if there were some way to implement LichessTV with HTML5/JS that would be ideal.
I would be great to have a general chat room for the overall site, i think that's the only truly important thing missing from lichess.
Dont think its gonna happen bros.

Need moderation for the clowns :P

But I too would like this!
There used to be one, was removed precisely for the reason #7 mentioned. No-one talked for days on end, and then one person would post a swear word or something stupid and then there would again be no chat after that. It's a nice idea but doesn't work in theory.

#4, there will never be a plugin dependency for core lichess technology. Flash, not even once. :) (it actually sounds like a drug, wow)
That's why it should be an optional feature.

If you don't like the sight of harsh language every time you visit the homepage, you could easily just un-check it ... there, I solved it!
I think team chats are a better option.

Or, a specific chat room on its unique page (e.g.: www.lichess.org/chat) rather than being open on the front page. That way, you'll have to make a small effort to get there -> avoid lazy trolls :P
