Question on chat modes

[Bixby]

From the manual (which has detailed descriptions of each):

/say, /s
/shout, /sh
/tell, /t
/party, /p
/linkshell, /l
/linkshell1, /l1
/linkshell2, /l2
/linkshell3, /l3
/linkshell4, /l4
/linkshell5, /l5
/linkshell6, /l6
/linkshell7, /l7
/linkshell8, /l8
/freecompany, /fc
/echo, /e
/yell, /y
/reply, /r

Entering a dungeon doesn't change your default chat mode. If you want to change the default to party, you have to do so yourself.

The pop-up chat balloons you see (with tiny text) are NPCs talking. Little random bits of flavor text. That's all those balloons show up for, you can't enable them for anything else, and that text doesn't show up in any chat log.

Some of them are damn funny, though. And some of them are rather dirty, too.

Thank you

Wats the difference between yell and shout?

Shout reaches an entire zone. Yell reaches a larger area than say, but not the entire zone. Couldn't tell you how far.
