Could Not Reproduce Cannot send messages in chat, or severe delays

I don't know why, but the send button remains greyed out trying to send messages like "glhf" or "gg" or similar, or even just letting them know you may be a second while you think. I am trying to communicate to the opponent, and this is a fundamental part of being a courteous player. The first message wouldn't go through for like 7 tries, and the follow up message just never went through and after 2 mins of trying, it was futile so I concede the game. We basically didn't even get to start because it was too frustrating to try and play without, and I refused to play without it.

This is def a pretty common problem and I've run into it myself from time to time. I guess no one is quite sure what makes it happen but I'll def have periods of time where I won't be able to send messages and "send" will be greyed and exactly as you said it'll randomly turn back on after a period of time but then go grey again. And what sucks is that it seems completely random so I could understand why it couldn't be reproduced. I haven't run into the problem in awhile myself but it 100% IS definitely a thing.

Lol the ironic thing is that technically speaking I'd LOVE absolutely LOVE if we could implement this as a feature, as I've always wanted "Allow chat from only buddies" to actually work rather than to just remove the chat box on my end. Like, the technology is clearly there, the send button CAN be greyed I just wished we could make it so that when you chose "allow chat from only buddies" it greyed the send button for myself AND anyone who wasn't on my friends list but if you didn't have that clicked than you could speak freely.

Would be beautiful if we could kinda kill two birds with one stone in some update that both fixed this problem AND implemented it properly.

It happens every 2nd or 3rd match. Event # 271226522, Game # 888042302 ... same thing. In 3 round matches it usually fixes when you come back from sideboarding. So move this back to unresolved. That was in standard 1 round match. Previous encounters in Pauper 3 round matches as well.
