    Anyone who's up for world chat?

    - I don't care what type of world chat.
    Let's assume that such a chat would filter profanity, rmt messages and work as a proper world chat should.

    Honestly, why not,

    I'm not confident in SE's ability to keep RMT out of it but the new chat filter feature coming in 7.0 should help people filter out undesirable stuff. I think a world chat would very quickly turn a bit mind numbing but I could turn it off and not see it so I don't really have any reason to be against it.

    I wholeheartedly support the idea of a world chat, since the Novice Network is limited in both capacity and purpose. However, the world chat should have a level requirement that's not easily obtained (Such as lv30 or lv50) to ensure it's not flooded by lv1 bots and RMT messages (It may still exist but in lesser numbers than without requirements)

    Additionally, it should be made clear any venue advertisement can be reported and banned. While the chat filter feature is coming soon, you don't want to be that new player who enters the world chat for the first time and get flooded by such messages, as it will not give a good first impression.

    If these two concerns are dealt with, I don't see why we cannot have a world chat.

    So like a shout that reach all zones? We have that in 11 with Yell and it's not that good.

    All we see is in-fighting, trolling and RMT/Merc yells.






    (Yes DennyXXX is a Gil seller. They sell Master Levels for gil, then sell that gil. A perfect circle).

    Eh it's a decent way to build a community for your world by letting everyone have a global chat to talk with each other. It can easily devolve into less desirable things but thankfully as brought up earlier with the new chat filters it shouldn't be too bad to block out bad actors and you can just report them too.

    People can barely tolerate eachother on these forums, how do you think this would go, personally I generally mute world chats like I did in WoW, I prefer it peaceful.

    Shout chat in the zone players are in seems to work just fine. Yell chat also exists. But World chat... linking the whole server all together in one place, yeah you think you want something like that, until you see it play out in practice.

    I've seen my fair share of world chat in smaller mmorpg's, and they are no picnic.

    No. I like being able to just leave a city when the RMT and venue spam gets too annoying.
