    Allow chatting when rest of screen is disabled

    The most irritating place this happens is the economy overview. Why the hell can't you use chat while you have it open? Messages is also annoying. Neither of these things being open should prevent the use of chat

    I've always wondered why some actions black-out the rest of the screen. Of the 7 icons above the friends bar, 4 use the black-out.
    While it would be nice if none of them did that, if changing the status quo risks breaking something else, I'd vote for leave well alone.

    I think the purpose of the 'backout' is to focus of the window.

    but I agree it is a bit funny why they did this with economy overview, because opening build menu chat still works, and no blackout.

    And talking about chat, It would be nice to be able to use chat/whisper outside of the game, incase you can't get into the game you are able to chat of whisper with your guild members.

    And talking about blackouts, I had several times things go wrong entering the game, needed to reload , because I couldn't do anything.
    That is a minor problem, annoying from time to time, but only happens about 1 out of 10 times I login

    Lol, no when you are not able to get into the game.
    You can login from home screen, use forum to when you are logged in.
