Remember when global chat was a major component of Clash of Clans? It would appear after you had logged in with your troops and base shining and your bashes at speed.

Supercell took a brave decision. Supercell made a bold decision by ditching global messaging in favor of creating clans. This allowed them to focus on building smaller communities within each clan and encourage more teamwork, while also reducing negativity.
Did you make the right decision?
Some players miss the chaos of global chat. Some players miss the banter, chance encounters, and feeling like they are part of something larger in Clash of Clans. Some welcome the departure of Clash of Clans and prefer a calmer clan chat without lurking trolls to feel safe against online harassment.
