No World Chat

Recommended Posts

My personal opinion is that having a Global/World chat can actually be a negative for the community as a whole. I understand that we want to be able to communicate/trade with everyone but i think disabling this feature would actually be much more beneficial to the community. Why?

Not having a global/world encourages people who are in a particular zone to communicate and help one another out and allows for players to interact and build relationships along the way with those that are are the same level or maybe farming the same things. It'l in fact strengthen the community. General chat is usually lost in the vast flood of global chats, yes you can turn it off, but because there is usually a global chat, general is ignored and global becomes a spam fest of everyone from everywhere diluting and making general pretty obsolete.

You can still have Cities chat linked together such as trade/or general where all the different cities would be linked. This encourages trade,recruitment,banter etc just as usual but doesn't run into other players chats while they are experiencing other aspects/zones of the game.

Limits gold Sellers and easier to monitor them and chat in general

Like i said, im all for a chat where everyone can come together and talk/trade or what not, but i think it needs to be limited so it doesn't ruin and confuse the experience of other players and levelers who don't want to be flooded with WTB/WTS or LFM but instead focused on that particular zone and level. Eventually we spend most of our time in cities anyways and i see no reason why we can't have a "global" chat in that scenario.

Change your channel colours so this doesn't happen. For the most part, whilst leveling i pay attention to general more than any other channel and only join world when looking for a group, or it's been quiet for way too long and i want to hear the world speak. I like the idea of a world channel.

Without world chat people would just create new non moderated world chat, it wont ever go away. Problem with that is trolls would take control of it and lock it with password like at Nos launch.
