I play WWF on my FaceBook page with some actual friends and out of the blue I have ([) and (]) in blue chat bubbles that prevent any input. Any idea what this is in aid of? We don’t talk politics or religion , just chit-chat about good words/scores or family stuff. Someone with mad skills out there must know how to get rid of this…Calling Stranger On A Train, come in please.

Make sure your “global chat” is set.

Play more, talk less.

In the end contact the game support, customer service whichever its called
