Sounds like you need to change the style of chat window. There are two that comes with Fetish Nightfall. Seems the one with input stealthing is currently the default (see this question quite often, maybe that should change
).
To change this, find
eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml in your Fetish directory, rename it to
_stealth_eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml.
Then find
_simple_eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml in same directory, and rename it to
eq2ui_mainhud_mainchat.xml.
Or you can do like me and use this nifty little program to do it for you.
