Cross-Server Invites

Hazhalm testing grounds doesn't share a region with any particularly busy areas.

I don't want to hear someone's Dynamis-Jeuno shouts when I'm in Dynamis-Xarcabard.

Nobody ever shouted in dynamis. There's no reason to.

No, but all of the different Einherjar chambers are in the same "Zone". Shout doesn't reach across them because the distance is too great, but a region-wide channel would appear in all 10 chambers.

Edit: And people can shout in Dynamis now =/ it's not like everyone in the zone is in the same linkshell these days.

Just as no one shouts in dynamis, no one shouts in Hazhalm. This really isn't a problem. And even if it was, you could just exclude certain areas.

edit: people can, but they don't. It's not a problem now and I don't expect it to ever be. You can always filter shouts while you're there if it really really bothers you.

All true. I just don't really see the point, personally. Though I suppose region-wide chat would mean a greater likelihood of spotting the lulz, which is always entertaining. I don't much care either way, as I doubt a chat channel update would affect me in the slightest.

You seem to be ignoring the biggest reason to do this: You woudn't have to be in Port Jeuno to see and make shouts- it would MASSIVELY aid decongestion of the area, as even with abyssea NPCs in Ru'lude and the chocobo citcuit and every city, everyone is in port jeuno so they can more easily find people doing something they want to do.

I was referring to making a server-wide or region-wide channel for non-cities as opposed to simply creating city channels. I can most certainly see how either of the two would help congestion.

Server wide would be bad. Region wide is fine, which is what i've very clearly been proposing. All the areas of a city are in the same region. This isn't ONLY about cities.

[Paksenarrion]

Even WoW doesn't have server wide chat (though the trade channel connects all of the major cities and the community itself mostly sticks to actual trade related talk).

...the hell server you play on? I know for a fact Thunderhorn Alliance was a negative for that, as was Garrosh Horde.

To keep on topic, a chat for regions would be awesome. City-based chats would be awesomer. Server wide invites would be completely awesome and I see less reason those aren't available than the first two.

Inviting people out of region would be cheating since you could use it to abuse nexus cape.
