Yup. Only yellow text if they duel.

Can you imagine the spam if there is a planned major fight in South Karana? The spam would be somewhat unbearable.

honestly i don't have a problem with zone wide messages, i mean if there's shit going down in a zone there's going to be lots of /shout and /ooc anyway and everyone will know about it.

at the end of the day i don't care either way

I'm not crazy about global ooc for the record, IRC is always open for that.

100% positive that ooc will be changed back to zonewide once the server goes live and the population is large enough.

Fixing Zone plugging
Pvp scoreboard
Yellow Text

Will not make it NOT classic but more pvp friendly.

Friendly isn't exactly the best word of choice.

In any case, we don't need a scoreboard and we don't need "hey guys look at me" text every time someone gets killed. Players know who the real pvpers are, and they know who to avoid.

I dunno man, that's a hot topic. I'd say it's a 50/50 split of who wants yellow and who doesn't. Yeah it's a pissing contest, but who's on here to be modest anyways?

Zonewide is fine. Worldwide is another matter. You actually should know who is in your zone most of the time, if not at all times.

We should not know they are a murderer on a killing spree until they find and attack us, or we "gasp" communicate with our fellow players and learn he is a murderer.

YT, even in a zone, is immersion breaking.

And not classic.

It's not even close to 50/50. It's 15 people who want yellow text, all of which happen to be box shitlords, and who also happen to be the loudest voices. Luckily the staff here seems to understand that the majority of the players are not forum warriors.

Now, the whole "promotes pvp" logic is so fucking flawed it should actually hurt your brain if you believe that. Rallos Zek gave you ability to PvP. You didn't have to do shit. It was mainly race wars for the first year. If you chose to play a PK, fine, but it definitely wasn't celebrated. If you chose to play it the same exact way as blue but chose to get down every now and then, awesome. True bad asses earned their reputation by making enough rounds – not camping level 4's and smirking, hoping everyone just saw their name broadcasted across the server as they reached for more Cheetos, because it's obvious that Name In YT = Supreme Bad Ass. This is not a first person shooter no matter how bad you want it to be.

You also don't need yellow text to "know where the pvp" is either. It's been the same fucking zones since the beginning of time.

The only legitimate reason for YT would be a massive zone guild battle and needing to know who's been dropped. I think if two guild's /guildwar eachother, than maybe a solution to zonewide/global YT should be looked at.

From what I understand, you have a couple months of your global occ and xp bonus. Enjoy it, it's what you want.

No "yellow text", no global ooc, slow as fuck exp – can't wait.
