My friend said that the chat enviornment in TERA used to be friendlier and more civil compared to WoW, which was a cesspool of nastiness and vitriol. You could ask an innocent question and get back a helpful reponse instead of a scrolling chatbox of 20 people trying to out troll the other. He said that it has become inreasingly worse since then and that the F2P status will only make it worse.

That is the inevitability of F2P. People with a clue tend to turn off world chat and stick to guild chat or /say. This makes it unfortunate for newbies who'd like to find nice people to play with.
On the mystic issue, I loved playing one but soloing is an exercise in patience, to put it mildly. One night I couldn't find anyone to group with and spent 30 minutes taking down one "zone mini-boss". He couldn't kill me and I couldn't hurt him fast enough.

The first flame war I saw when I joined the game is "English speaking please", then thing just went south. I decided to join a party and change chat tab into party for world peace.
I hope it's just the thing for the first few month of F2P server.

I think part of the problem is just the melting pot that is going on right now. The "regulars" from the past were used to things being a certain way, but F2P has attracted new audiences that weren't used to the old community conventions. So, in the end, new norms will be formed as the staff find ways of dealing with the problems.
I would also say, Global Chat in Tera has never been particularly enlightened in my experience. It seems to always come back around to either whether Elins are appropriate or not, and whether the game is worse than other MMORPGs. It can sometimes be a bit funny, but I usually just tuned it out. And now that there are many times as many players, it's just gotten a lot noisier (and with other new memes and issues inserted).

But it was really funny having the Elin war. There is even a guild called "The Elin Army" over in Mount Tyrannis. We even had guilds that had "High Elves only" and such, or "No Elins allowed".

To answer your question, I think you can edit your chat boxes to show only certain chats you choose?

You just leave the channel. I'd give the exact command but they vary from MMO to MMO and I don't want to mislead you. You can leave and join channels or even create your own.

So what is normal gold amounts? Because of the lockboxes giving gems I have 300g now at level 11. It seems like a very high amount of money when I was at not even a gold before getting those gems.
Also I can't seem to find where to train crafting, maybe I'm missing it somewhere.

A round of dailies, with the elite gold buff, gives around 2k a day. A queen weapon for DPS cost anywhere from 20k (bow) to 40k (Lancer/greatsword) I've been playing since day 1, not very hardcore, with endgame gear +12 on my char and 100k in my pocket. My clan leader who's hardcore has 700k and 2 fully decked out characters. Just some reference for your question.

Is there a way of previewing stuff before you can equip it?
