make a diablo2 general chat forum and people can make spam threads there instead of the trade forum.
does that make sense? or is there already one there and i missed it?

there already a general chat.. And you can't stop ppl from spamming you can just help by reporting them. But even in gc spam isn't allowed and it's good like that cause some ppl trust more someone with a high post count.

there is a gc but not a general chat just for diablo 2 like for people to talk about the game/ask questions most of the people in normal general chat dont even play diablo2
