How about it?
I know it would probably need a fair bit of moderation, I'd happily do it, but sometimes it's nice to just say hello?!

Works well on another forum I'm on, they only have about 10 people on at anyone time and of there's a argument it's gone within 5 messages anyway.

I think it's a great idea

Surely a 'block user' feature would be adopted before this? Id also like a toggleable 'suspect user is a bell-end' marker feature too, to use as a halfway house before blocking them.

Ropey java chat might not be that easy to implement, but blocking surely is?

I don't know the stats, but I'd guess that PH has substantial traffic. And given they are a company with assets and their relatively risk averse approach to being sued for libel, the chat box would last about 9 seconds.
