PoP starting to dwindle...hovering close to 300 now

[SearyxTZ]

All I'm saying is if the pop is 300'ish then we should have global channels.

If it's 500+ then yeah I get it. Keep it zone specific.

nell that made no sense, if a global communication system is in place and you use it, you are playing alone??

i really dont get how letting everyone (even the retards) have a viable channel to communicate gamewide would be detrimental or hazardous to the server. there is always /ignore and /turn off ooc if you wish to self-censor but to take away the very option is fascist and close minded and btw, what are you trying to hide from people, the way people really are here? let it flourish and wear that shit like armor.

you play classic pvp eq emu. fuck yea.

he or she means that if the server needs global OOC then that's when there's problem with the population. that you need global OOC for talking to the low population server /answered

It's not global ooc itself that would make you alone, it's the need for global ooc in order to interact with people that would cause you to be alone. Being an MMO and all, if you find yourself with no one inside your zones to talk to you really are all alone. Global ooc is just an illusion of player interaction.

And call me a masochist, but I really like having auction zones in place. It really is nice for the lights to have Kelethin and the darks to have Neriak as the trading hubs. Global ooc would trivialize the distance between players wanting to trade.

But the main reason not to include global ooc into the game is because we don't need it. With 300 people online at once, that's a lot of spam :P

OF course, this is just my opinion and other people have very valid dissenting points [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Hey Searyx, i stole your idea and made it fail

[Thestrongseed]

NO 1. XP is too slow its a fact despite your reasons....
no.2 a solo player stands no chance against the tyrant that is horrendus XP penalties.
no.3 all the guilds are ran by fag jew hitler type leaders, real og players go guildless.
no.4 The real og then suffers xp loss for not grouping with jew,fag,hitler type faggets.

solution, Increase xp so solo players can compete with the fags and nerds yea some of of have jobs and kids.

no.2 Take away dumb time sinks, aka disabled maps and other dumb shit that just make xping that much more of a bleeding hemoroid in my asshole.

Next,,, make it to where we can all speak in 1 channel, i mean I make a level 1 OGRE there is nobody in the conecting zones MAN THIS LOOKS FUN!

Hmm what else nerf mage earth pet that shit roots too much, JESUS CHRIST, nerf that shit already son of a bitch!

strong steed my new favorite poster on boards after that one

[Masq]

the problem isnt the server, its the community.

[Yinaltin]

is it possible to enable a partly ooc that is non global ? you can read the ooc at an maximum of 3 zones away from you . like you are in upper guk and can read ooc up to oasis , grobb , rath mountains , oggok . so you are not that alone anymore and have some guys to speak with . possible to do ? wanted by the community ?
