Chat Bug

FT Account name: bosslife
Time of bug: Same time as post.
Where: happens no matter where I am.
What: I can send out public, whisper, clan, and PM chats, but I can only recieve PM chats. I cannot see any other chats.
Why: So far, I've asked my friends and clanmates if they can see other players chats who are in the area and they said yes, while I cant see other players chats which is becoming problematic for me. People have to friend request me and send me a PM for me to chat with them.

It seems possible that you need to adjust your chat filter.
Please read
Public chat commands post and let us know if this isn't solving your issue

Can we sticky this post to prevent this question from constantly being asked? I had players ask me this regularly back when I was GM. It is particularly a problem on shared accts. I'm not saying that is the case in this case. Just making an observation.

It'd help if there was a notification as to which filter you have applied. I played around with it as while back and since nothing notified me of any actual changes I figured it didn't work anymore.
Took me days to figure out why everyone was ignoring me.

If you are ever in doubt about your chat, use this command.
/filter global
It resets your chat to non-filtered status. If that doesn't help, then contact GM team for assistance.

I just don't touch it anymore tbh lol, I thought it'd give me some sort of confirmation and when I didn't see anything I just went about my business.
Finally a clan member kept attacking me for some reason but would never answer me as to why. Switched chars and device and figured it out lol
