								2/10 WOULD NOT INGEST   | 
 Well, I'm not going to try to argue whether your average EQ2 player is smarter than your average XBL player.  The thing is that I have been in more than enough MOG groups in which at least one participant did not type word one, and in ones where I just had to turn a blind eye to the chat.  A mic would just let me call them cockgobbling shitstains without having to take my fingers away from playing the game.  Avoiding assholes, to me, is a separate deal from the communication medium.
 My other point is that a console game should have console controls, not a gimp-assed PC control.  If you are designing a MOG for a console, cowboy up and implement voice, for Ludd's sake.  Retaining text chat is stagnation in raw form, or at least lazy design, or maybe a way to sell another set of controllers to morons.
 
 As for dodging chat in a voice system, Strazos can give classes.  It's not rocket surgery, just don't talk.
