    I was working on a communication guild bot that uses your account to login and was intended to be used as a chat automation tool. I quit the project as I got bored and probably is against SoTA law and do not want my account banned.

    Would have also been nice if the original game client allowed chat to be persistent during loading screens so you can chat with your guildmates during the wait times.

    Do you have an old Platter harddrive by chance? SSD you only have around 15-35secs of load time.

    Ya I'm just use to it.. the last MMO type game I was playing regularly was Shadowbane (and emulators).. and you could use the chat system in nearly every aspect of the game (at least it seemed that way) it was a custom game engine though.. designed for siege warfare and it was a seamless world.. your character could fly from continent to continent without load times if you built it correctly. Would be nice if the load times in sota were sub-10 seconds but yea it did improve when I installed a SSD
