My caracter is lvl 60 and I can`t use a chat. The other caracters i have can?

I know if a user creates a level 65 character on a F2P account (usually by being gifted a token) this character will have chat restrictions until 66. I take it that your 60 character was also created with a token? For now just keep levelling up. I'm not sure if chat will unlock at 61 or 66, but it should become available eventually.

@6cf5364cc4c3a549 Try this Press the [Windows] Key + [R] at the same time Copy the following in to the text box and press ok %localappdata%\swtor\swtor\settings in this location will be files called HE1234 Character Name PlayerGUIstate find the one for the affected character and delete it , then start the game and see if it persists

Thx on help but it dosen`t work. Problem come after 5.0 update

@6cf5364cc4c3a549 I have not seen any other reports about loss of chat function with 5.0 so far, will keep an eye out though double check you deleted the guistate for that character just to be sure also go into the GUIProfiles folder and delete the xml file for that character (this is the UI profile) can also run a file vewrification per below Non-Streaming launcher - Log into the launcher but don't click Play. Check for small letters "ST" in the bottom left corner. If this is NOT present, With the new launcher after login , select the username pulldown on the top right and select settings, then press repair. Streaming launcher - If the letters "ST" is present, close the launcher, right mouse click on the game shortcut, select open file location and delete the BitRaider folder. Then start the launcher

are you a subscriber or a free to play player? also: did you by any chance change the keybinding to your chat? Try resetting your settings and see if that helps. Also some more info might be nice,. can you type in chat and it just doesnt send? or cant you even open the chat to type?

Those Tokens cost Cartel Coins?.......

EA was that serious about dealing with the 'G Word' Spammers that they imposed those sorts of restrictions?... respect EA, thanks for the love.
