Global Chat Bug

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.

I'll be chatting away in one of my global channels when all of a sudden it goes quiet. Too quiet. I try and say something, but I can't see it in the chat box, it's like globals have gone down for me, but I get a tell from those in the channel that they can see what I'm typing, I just can't see any replies.

The chat box only comes back to life again after I've done a proper zone (with the loading screen).

Edit: Seems to happen randomly. I can be in mid-conversation whilst doing a RWZ mission, and part way through the mission the chat dies till I leave the mission.

Well hello there, Global Chat Bug. Where have you been hiding?

It's not good to see you again.

Translation = Yep! This seems to happen off and on over the years. This incarnation seems more localized than before only affecting the player client side. I've only experienced this most recent Global Chat Bug when on mission maps. If it's happening when out in the "world" that's bad...
