In this game I know you can get, "suggestive chat," but I haven't figured it out. if you have that you can type things like "u" instead of you. But the main thing is that you can type numbers. I would love if we were allowed to type numbers in normal chat. I can understand blocking out the inappropriate numbers, but I can't see the problem with typing a number like 23. I would be very thankful if this update were made.

Hiya sahbe
I think what you're referring to is 'Open Chat'. This is reserved only for those who can verify they are over 18. The reason Text Chat won't allow numbers is because some people were misusing it so numbers had to be removed for child protection.
Now that numbers can only be written by circumventing the filters there can be no doubt to a child that they are not supposed to give out their phone number etc. The lengths children need to go to to give out personal info ensures that no child will forget it's against the rules. It also makes sanctioning an account an easier decision (many mutings of accounts are done to protect the child, rather than punish!) and also makes sure parents know that KI is doing what they can to protect their children while they're playing W101.
To get Open Chat we need to be over 18 and be able to verify this via a debit/credit card transaction. Unfortunately accounts that can not be age-verified (any account made when the player was under 13) can not access Open Chat privileges.

They're only allowed in 'Open Chat'. If a player has 'Text Chat' they can not write numbers. If you're able to write numbers then you have accessed Open Chat. Anyone with Text Chat will see dots when you use a number, only those who also have Open Chat will see the numbers you type.
EG Open Chat: I need 17 mistwood Text Chat will see: I need ... mistwood
Anything text chat users will see as dots comes up in yellow as we type into the chat box. White can be seen by everyone, red is banned and will be dots for everyone, yellow is dots for text chat users but shown to other open chat users
