/ooc is not R&F

When I think of Gothic Circle I think of Finawin. It's a poor way to look at them I'm sure, and at one point I was considering joining the guild. But once I realized that the person who said "gtfo" to my first post was in that guild, I kinda wrote them off as immature 14 year olds.

I am sure GC has plenty of decent people. Despite him giving them a bad image, It would be wrong to write off the whole guild because of one bad apple.

With so many other good guilds you have to weed them out somehow. If their most visible member is an ass, you don't think twice about disregarding them.

Isn't this why hasbin has been guildless for so long?

No, but I see what you did there.

The language doesn't bother me. It's the people having arguments and clogging up the window. Can OOC be turned off? Can't really remember much about the interface since I haven't played in 7 years.

Yes, in options.

Yes, you can go about it a couple different ways. Depending on your UI, you can either right click your chat window and select Chat Filters (or whatever its specific name is) and deselect OOC. Or, you can go under Options, Filters tab (or whatever it's called), and Hide OOC.

As far as the original post goes, I agree that there should be a sense of civility and decency towards fellow gamers. OOC spam about "Happy Birthday Hitler" and shit like that last night was annoying. Personal attacks and flames are also unneeded, especially in a public channel like that. However, remember this is the internet, and if you've been on the internet for longer than 5 minutes, you'll already know that you need to develop a tough skin to survive.

The problem is server wide /ooc. It needs to be limited to zones.
