Ghesta brought this up in another thread, and I'm afraid a great idea is going to get buried in RnF drama, so I'm reposting this.

I dunno why nobody said this sooner, it's a rule pervasive throughout many mmo's and online games, and it has been shown to be a simple and effective way to filter idiocy.

This is a great idea, and I fully support it. I think if many people also support it, we may be able to get GM staff support. Please post your thoughts.

You realize when I said that I was being 100% sarcastic right? That would be an absolutely stupid thing to do. I have OOC and auctions in their own window. When it gets stupid, I don't look at that window.

Anyone who can't figure that out on their own deserves to get annoyed.

I help at least 5 or 6 people a day who ask (legitmate) questions in OOC. Why remove that?

If you REALLY want to stop OOC, then make it zone wide, not server wide. That way the noobs can still ask noob questions. But I see no problem with ooc other than the "sex spammer" who i toss on ignore within one or two seconds of his messages.
