Global chat isn't bad, the people who fill it with such inane content are. The community on red isn't as "toxic" as people think, it's just incredibly immature.
That said, I have a character there and removed chat windows. It's like having a server with more npcs that are randomly hostile.

Global OOC is like reality television. It's entertaining in a "wtf" kind of way. As such, it is best enjoyed in small doses. Create another chat box, filter all OOC to it, then make it as small as possible and store it in some rarely visited corner of the screen.

People on red instantly backstab you for a yellow text the first chance they get. And force LNS for bragging rights. The whole server promotes griefing and trolls, especially in global.

I have not personally run into this with the exception of the more mentally challenged players like Squeek and Libertarian. I did have some dude start attacking me once, but I sent him a tell saying "that is not nice" and he stopped (I don't expect this to work in a majority of cases). I don't doubt that there are some on the server who will backstab you, though, but it's not a frequent occurrence.
Learn to abuse the fuck out of the zone line and talk shit while doing so. It's the absolute best defense against twinks and assholes while you're leveling and if you have an SSD, there is pretty much nothing they can do about it. You do this by zoning out and sitting on the other side waiting for them to zone out with you. When you see their character load in, you just zone back in and repeat the process on the other side of the zone line. Make sure you send them messages like "stop being poor and buy a better computer" or "you suck at zoning". "hahaha you suck" is also appropriate.
