No clue how much coding or if even possible this is, but have "zone sets" say all the deserts have thier own channel, freeport/commons/nek/neriak/lava have thier own channel etc etc..It would cut down on the GLOBAL ooc and not limit to just 1 zone. EC tunnel would still exist because youd have to be in that zones set.
I made a thread about this. It's named "Filter Global Chat". EC tunnel in this scheme wouldn't be meaningful, but playing in the freeport area would still be useful because you could reach faydwer
and antonica and evil races and mid continent.

The reason EC was meaningful back then was because /ooc and /auction were zone-based. So you had to find hte most populated zone to increase your odds of making a sale. So people designated EC, a very logical choice, and greater faydark, to be the central trading zones for people to do sales.
