Haha, its funny Bones brought this up because someone recently made a post with the most active posters and finawin was on it. But I was thinking that really his post count should be at least cut in half because the majority of his posts are verbatim.

Seriously, OOC shouldn't be taken away. It's a decent resource for new players attempting to get information. It can be helpful That doesn't mean needy pathetic asshats should be able to use it as their personal "LOOK AT ME" chatroom to get attention. Private tells are your friend! | |||

We have about the same opinion; i dont want ooc to be removed before we have a population about 1k +. I also think peebs should stop making new threads about it every week. Only reason i posted here was cuz some came along with the "just shut off your ooc" argument, i hate that it doesnt make any sense. Quote:

Rogean posted in another thread that if he got the server wide chat channels going would the people who liked the current global OOC be content with its removal. I definitely think this would be the way to go and we could go that way now.
Global channels serves a few purposes: - Finding groups (lets face it, its not as easy right now as it was on live, even with global ooc) - Selling Items (again, lets face it, going to EC/GFAY was a trading mad house that this server will most likely NEVER reach) - General Discussion (most zones here are empty due to low pop, or have few people in them, but it is an MMO and people like to talk). - Answering Questions to new players (Somewhat falls into General Discussion) I think the reason MOST people seem to have an affront to these channels is because they are AUTOMATICALLY joining them on creation and 60% of the stuff posted in global OOC has no relation to the game (but it is OUT OF CHARACTER). This, "it makes the game easier" argument is really not valid until we hit 2,000+ non-peak like live. Adding in global chat channels could solve MOST peoples complaints by splitting up these purposes into separate channels that should remove a lot of the nonsense. LFG channel could be made so those pesky druids who like to sit /anon could still see groups looking for more. General channel could be created for newbie questions or for Finawin to turn it into WoW Barrens chat. ( [You must be logged in to view images.

(Also, I might add, if Rogean does make these changes, it should be added to the setup guide that if you need help try joining "general" or whatever general channel gets used/created) | ||

Don't know how you had problems finding groups back in '99, I remember seeing 15 people levels 1-10 just fighting at goblin camps in Butcherblock. Has anyone ever made a goblin fighting group in Butcherblock on this server? | |||

You have some good points [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I can just hope we can get this huge population back we had on live; im working on it i think few people already started cause i told them of p99. I made some posts in old eq1 guild forums, and sometimes i mention p1999 on the global chat on my eq2 server. I can just encourage people to make some advertise i believe there are still many many people out there who would LOVE to play here if they only knew about the server. If you want global ooc to be closed go get some friends to play here and it eventually will [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||
