I really enjoyed the chat feature on the front page and was sorry to see it vanish not too long ago. I understand if moderation is just too much of a hassle or if there are other issues in play. But I thought I'd put in a plea for its return on the off chance it might be within the realm of possibility.
Perhaps not enough people were using it to justify keeping it? I actually have no clue why it was removed but I assume you had your reasons. Just throwing this out there because I had some good experiences with it.

I miss the chat box
"One should cultivate contemplation in one’s foibles. The foibles are like fish, and contemplation is like fishing hooks. If there are no fish, then the fishing hooks have no use. The bigger the fish is, the better the result we will get. As long as the fishing hooks keep at it, all foibles will eventually be contained and controlled at will." -Zhiyi

I hadn't even noticed its disappearance. I use one of the Quick links (Active topics) as a front. Don't most people?

Re: I miss the chat box
We are contending with some troll activity, the chat box doesn't have the control features needed to avoid it being abused. I imagine once the difficultly has been abated we can turn it back on.

Re: I miss the chat box
I'd love to see this feature. Being able to make quick, casual conversations with other community members would be awesome.
“ With the wisdom of threefold purity, dedicate all the virtue gained from having made such effort toward enlightenment. Dedicate it to clear away the suffering of infinite beings. This is the way of a Bodhisattva.
