I disagree. I liked the global ooc when I was new, and I still like it. Not everyone gets triggered by trash talk. It also makes it easier to find groups and a guild if you're new and don't know anyone since the population is so low.
How do you know most new players see it as a negative? Did you take a poll? Do you send them a tell to ask them how they feel about it when you see a new name on the server? Or are you just generalizing?
Also, how would people sell anything on red? It's not like we can sit in the EC tunnel. If trade had its own channel, it would just turn into ooc.
All of this is moot anyways, nothing is going to change.
