Why we need the old chat back

A couple months ago (at least?) I had disabled the auto-login. The only way I knew it would kick in for me though is if I actually logged off my account and then logged back in. Ever since, it hasn't automatically logged me back in, particularly when I actually click the chat options and click "turn off chat". It's been nice and quiet ever since. If you haven't tried that, try it. If you have and it still logs you back on, it could be a cache issue not recognizing your settings.

I like the idea of choosing to be banned from chat.. This new version is a pain on my phone.
Please ban me :)

I quite agree with you, there. For sites like this, where my eyes are blasted with a bright screen (hiss!), I use an extension for Chrome called "High Contrast". I get to choose between increased contrast, grayscale, inverted color (my favorite), inverted grayscale, and yellow on black. Plus, it makes things look cool and lessens the strain on my ocular muscles.

I do, however, both like and dislike the chat where it is. I much preferred the former one, but I soon got used to the current one. It's a nice feature, but nothing's perfect and we can't satisfy everyone (have you tried? Exhausting).

chat options > turn off chat switches it off.

Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.

On the topic of colors and the like,

I'm currently using an extension for Chrome called "Care Your Eyes". It inverts the colors for the most part, but images are still maintained in their normal mode... for the most part. Some images (ie, on site icons, rank bars, etc) invert too, but most stay just fine. Much better over the stark white!

I don't know about anybody else, but when I could still see chat, 'turn off chat' didn't actually turn it off, only minimised it... I still got notifications and if I loaded a new page it just opened again.

It won't let me have a blank signature ...

I'm not sure but I think that was because before I set the backend settings autologin to off, it wouldn't update the chat when using that button. It did that to me too until I configured the backend autologin. I think that feature would stay loaded in, "auto-logging in" on a regular basis until it was turned off. It hasn't done it to me since.
