I was looking at some of these and they are multiple years old since the last update. I'm on Argonnessen, and it seems a little laggy at times, but I never see any sort of chat. I'd LOVE to try to be social in this game. Maybe hang with some folks once in a while. I'm a total scrub when it comes to D&D and DDO in particular, trying out various builds with less than spectacular results, but hey if I found a good guild for a casual player who is friendly, not disruptive and is respectful to others, at least I could suffer through my horrible builds in company.
