OOC Chat

[Ignight]

Should /ooc be server wide like Red due to low population?

I played on blue the other day and someone freaked out at me for monopolizing all the camps in lguk with my level 42 ungeared enchanter.

Just combine it with Green already lol. No reason not to. Not even one.

[Swish]

Genuinely it might help as sitting in EC isn't worth it.

Global ooc is an abomination.

So is green and blue not combining "unite the clans!"

But so is lack of red 2.0

So I guess maybe it's coming soon

I don't think they can combine the servers. Character page only allows so many toons. What happens to extras?

There also has to be a desire to combine servers. It's a lot of prep and planning. This project has been going on for a lot of years now. I think we are in maintenance mode at best.

Global /ooc chat is great for low population servers. That's how MUD's were. Everquest comes from MUDs and it's closer to classic EQ anyway to have global /ooc for a low population server, because normal classic EQ means zones should be filled with people.

I don't think they can combine the servers. Character page only allows so many toons. What happens to extras?

The extras remain on the account but can't be accessed until you delete one of the existing top 8. Alternatively, they can change the code to allow the select screen to display more than 8 in these cases.

When I mentioned global chat of any kind (even auction) cd288 freaked out and said the servers were going to be merged soon.

The servers aren't going to be merged. There are just too many hurdles.

common names, only 8 slots, more tickets for the already the short staff, unwanted competition on green and named staff working on EQ Legend development.

The red received global chat.

Perhaps after blue drops below 50 ppl it will be provided.

sure why not would make it a lot easier to put off-meta dungeon groups / crawls together

do it for green too - if people don't like it they can mute the channel

Yes, this way everyone can see Sanctum's heal chain.

> common names, only 8 slots, more tickets for the already the short staff, unwanted competition on green and named staff working on EQ Legend development.

Common names is easy, they just add an X

8 slots - they literally warned people.

more tickets for the already the short staff - One less server, can more efficiently manage staff

unwanted competition on green - ?

Global OOC is not that great, there is someone on Red that has been /ooc'ing incoherent meth-induced hallucinations constantly for the last two days.

Playing on red is like working at the tiger king's home made zoo.
