so i have a question for you all that want Yellow Text, and forgive me if this was covered, ill admit i didnt read the whole thread.

assuming that yellow text cant be restricted to certain levels (meaning YT was for players 1-50 or not at all), my question is this; If YT was turned on, and we made a rule against using the YT to spam dumb shit (hello dumb shit like lvl 1s named Chrisbrown and Rihanna; Chrisbrown has beat Rihanna's ass in the ocean of tears), would you all still be ok with yellow text?

As a person who's always been against global ooc and YT...with the simple caveat of not including the zone in the message I'd be OK with it.

It doesn't make a lot of sense not to include global OOC, either. The biggest worry most of us have is people spamming...especially in off hours when there's no one around to enforce anything. Global OOC was included on blue until population warranted it's removal...which - aside from an initial burst of negativity from anti-OOC activists - would also work here.

The primary problem is grouping and obtaining gear...this is something that's essential in finishing out the corrective actions you guys have already taken. I would suggest that abusing OOC would carry the same punishment boxing does.

I would want it modified so that it does not reveal the zone in which the kill occurred, but I am all for it.

YT should be the least of this server's worries.

If anything OOC is much more important and even so... there are way too many outstanding issues that would benefit this server much more than OOC or YT.

Make it so an act can post 1 time every fifteen minutes on gooc that. Would make it perfect

broken engris, but seems like 1 post per 15minutes in global ooc? thats an interesting idea that I havn't seen anyone mention yet...

[Dlardlar]

Third time I mentioned it bkab like my idea 2

K, so server pop of about 100... about 30+ holo trolls, posting up forum like filth in ooc every 15 minutes, equals no less than 2 retard rants a minute not including lesser lifeforms like Slathar or Cast who will create 8 chars per account just to log one out and the next in to broadcast his shit 8 times every 2 minutes with spam accounts in rotation.

I can't see stuff like global ooc or yt doing anything but making the wonderful world of Norrath a more obnoxious place like these forums filled with idiot trolls whose stated purpose is to bring the server down.

No thanks

I would give it a trial.

Screw global occ. Let YT do the global talking.
