I've filled the rest of my slots with pocket lvl 1 rangers and parked them in zones throughout the world! I cried a little when I traveled all around the world LFG and no one was in any zone I went to :( Living in Hawaii time zone is not cool for p99 red. Well, I haven't done it yet - but I plan to :P
We really do need a global ooc.. or at least between certain times O_o
Edit: I'll throw in a picture i just threw on a similar post, may as well throw it here because it's related:

It sucks man....hoping the server picks up after the holidays, but that break may give people time to think and have them conclude that the grind etc is not worth it.

I know that you can send tells to blue99 and I think around that time on live they let people create their own chat channels and anyone could join them. /join general or /join shaman. Something along those lines. That would solve the issue all together I think. I sometimes wish ooc was global, but I know it would be too much at peak times. Although I guess it wouldn't really spam if you just put your ooc in a separate window.

I suggested chat channels a long time. Nobody listens. Nobody cares.

ooc is filterable. Use shout for zone info imo.

Did you think of it all by yourself? No one listened because you're an anonymous blueb.

why not do a vent channel maybe? they wont ever add something to this server that isnt on the other, though yes, p99 did indeed have a globcal ooc channel from the beginning for 5 months before they finally shut it down
but anyways, have a vent channel, though things can get messy, but if someone breaks the rules, they get banned, and have certain channels for certain areas, for instance channel one is for east antonica, south antonica, west antonica, faydwer, and odus, and a trading channel, though it can work, but will have to have several monitors,

p99 already has a mumble server.

Not much difference to encourage a 3rd party "OOC" compared to a built-in one.. if we have access to a recognized global chat, then should just implement it in the game where it's convenient that people will actually use ..
"Hey guys, you shouldn't smoke pot! But you can bring your own pot and smoke in the corner over there, but other than that, STRICTLY NO POT.."
...But wait, why can we smoke over there in the same room, just a different area, AND you're encouraging us to smoke ??
"..Illogical?! What are you talking about? So what if it's ironic, it's just the rules. That contradict each other. And inconvenient."
Err, I never said illogical, but yes. Illogical.

It is almost impossible to find a group without global chat. I went from CB to Unrest to FP and stopped at FP since there was nobody there and nobody to bind me.

Diablo3 won't release in Feb. Even if it does, it will be good for a couple of months tops. I'll still be punching in for raids etc.

Just have global ooc in game. You can always filter out all the dumb shit. with under 200 pop there needs to be an easier way to find groups. Making Lv 1 characters just to do a / in zones is stupid. Don't punish those who would make good use of global ooc because a few morons will abuse it.

Another feature that most players on this server don't seem to be aware of is turning off anon and role and staying in an exp zone that has a few solo spots... It makes it easy to find groups and such. I also search /who all 18 26 and see if anyone in my exp range isn't afraid of a finding a group.

Spammers and constant retardation. Pass.

Yes, taking off anon and roleplay does help. Why is everyone always hiding? :/

I'm not a fan of broadcasting I'm a solo level 21 rogue running through a zone with no escape method.
Specifically when 90% of the population are casters who can CC my ninja ass.

Yea right, like there's enough spammers to completely take away the positive effects of this. P99 is so small, spammers are/will be rare. For the rare spammers, just /ignore. Problem solved. Classic command.
Retardation is found in every single zone, deeming that point moot to global ooc. Again, use the epic classic command /ignore if u mad.

Then you don't have to LOL .. so scrubby .. these are called features and would therefore be optional to use with risk assumed.

are you dumb?
someone said we should take away role and anon. Doing that would reveal him.
