You can opt out of a players killed log too. I'm not advocating the yellow text of other emus in game.

I think it's a sizable # of people that want it and there's none of the (valid) cons involved. Kill log is fine imho.
players killed log is better idea than yt imo, but how would it be implemented? an npc you have to check or just a command to bring up the log?

Quick posting to a project1999 hosted site. That's how EQ live did it back in the day. It was a grand success and quite interesting to page thru.

This sounds logical if you're anti-social and have no friends, and no options for a guild. It may ring truer for people just starting, but a case can be made for forums in that regard.

I started on the server late and had few people to level up with. I made friends, some of whom I PvP against now...and even so we're still friendly.

/wave FF crew (fun bunch to fight against)

Community and liveliness comes from being social in a social game. Not trying to be the uber solo PK that doesn't have any other means of being involved in a community other than global and YT.

The community interaction on the server right now is virtually nil. If you're solo and/or guildless, then yeah it's even worse.

Back on live sometimes GFay or EC would have 200+ people in it, which is the entire server's population.

OOC gives people something to do while they're sitting for ten minutes to regenerate HPs in between solo grind kills. The trash talk and drama is what a lot of people used to play for on TZ.

I wouldn't even consider it as "global" OOC - it's more like "OOC that will actually get used for its intended purpose". The same goes for /auction.

No clue if its been said or not im not reading 30 pages but, how hard would it be to put in a general chat channel that is optional to join, like how it is on live u woudl type /join general and connect u to a chat channel with the rest of the server or the people who join it, that way if u dont want to hear it u dont have to, i mean u could just turn ooc off but then umight miss something said in the zone, not sure how hard it would be to add a chat channel tho.

People will then use shout to communicate in the zone. Who would use global ooc to talk to someone in their zone?

The best laughs and times I had on VZTZ were directly influenced by global OOC. There was a reason we had a community full of memes and original funny material.

It also provides something to do, as Searyx said, while sitting around waiting for things in Everquest. The population is like 180 now at peak times, the server seems dead and lifeless. Just add global OOC, if you don't want to see it then filter it out. I really do not understand the issue.

Yellow text inspires PVP, so what if it says the zone you're in when you die, in my opinion take anonymous out while you're at it. Big things need to happen.
