Is it time to remove the _ before chat?

I know it not a biggie, but when browsing unanswered messages or going into Fun and Games on my phone, having _chat at the bottom, when its my favourite topic is a bit of a PITA.

Is it time to remove the _ and make it like any other topic?

Yes the _ stems from a time when the idea of a Chat topic had folks clutching their pearls in fright at very thought.

From what I remember, the _ was added so Chat didn't appear at the top of the Topics list, entice people away from other topics and generally lower the tone.

We prob should get rid but it is a little bit of MN history, really...
