I noticed that you can join multiple chats... which makes things REALLY confusing.

Wierd, I get so much chattering going on at times on left side of the screen, it drives me insane. Sometimes I have to reboot UO to make it stop.

LoL..In a blah way.

Everyone is trying to get chat to shut up. Im trying to get chat to work. go figure. LoL.

so let me see if I get this straight. People talk into a mic and its broadcast over UO in text? Or is there a certain key you hit to chat?

My whole guild is AWOL... I'm loving the chat channels! And since our alliance was disbanded by UO (that whole factions/non-factions thing) I really missed the chatter! The HWM, CC, etc. group are a fun bunch to chat with. They crack me up!

OH and Kelek! Everytime I see a post by you... I read your sig at least three times! HILARIOUS! LOVE IT!

I finally got Luna Stripper to shut up last night... she was wanting "everyone" to go to Luna for she has something to say.... dunno who "everyone" is at 2am HST (that's damned early for you mainland people!) and then she started complaining when "everyone" didn't show up right away.

I told her maybe they don't wanna hear what she has to say...


And she didn't talk anymore in the chat. ^.^



We have some characters in our chat... just proves how utterly insane we all are.


Oh... Richard Pryor... yes... voyeurism is the new addiction in UO. :p

The chat system really bothered me at first, but once I found out about separate channels it's pretty convenient : ]

Strippers do talk although it's limited.

"Do you want a lap dance."

"I'll do you for one hundred dollars."

"I'll do both of you for two hundred."

LMAO... Naughty!!

That said... yes... she's definitely one for attention isn't she? :popcorn: The other night it was "Everyone hates me because of my armor..." I have no idea what armor she has but wow... must be really cool.

She's hungry for attention in the worst of ways...

One night she was absolutely terrible in the Luna Bank, whining and crying and carrying on in such a way that reminds of me my sons when they were little. A couple of people kept trying to calm her down, friends I suppose...

Someone got really tired of the girl and started calling her emo and such... apparently that got a rise out of her which seriously entertained some of the other people who continued to egg on her. From what I've observed, the girl is seriously wanting some attention.... from anyone. I kinda feel sorry for her in a parental sort of way.

That's no woman. Any in-game persona that is remotely close to a slutty female is actually a man IRL. It's true, it's science.

General, anyone in the area with voice switched on can talk and yes it garbles and it sometimes is hard to understand people it's not perfect by a long shot but I think it fits the description of MMOG voice chat for general use.

No, I don't use it much myself lol.

mmhhhhmmm :p

The way UO has the General Chat.. you can be anywhere in the game (not just the area or within so many parsecs) and get the chatter... especially annoying when UO plops you directly into it every time you log in. grrr!


Altho... can be entertaining (as we witnessed one night, eh Richard!) and most enlightening until people realize it really IS GENERAL chat! HAHAHAH!

I just thought of something...

with the chat thing... why would we need to go do anything? why need we see each pixel self - we can just blah blah blah in chat while sitting in our homes... who needs to see the pixels anymore?

Telepathic guild meetings.
Remote instructions for running dungeons.

omgomg

just like RL... we are coalescing into individualism now in UO!!!! Who needs to "socialize" anymore... just open a chat! So what if your SO is in the same room... use the UO chat to talk to them!!!



AAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUGHHHHH!!!

Thou speaketh the truth.

Me, I always prefer face to face or is that pixle to pixle interaction.

The chat cannel has it's uses, but, there's nothing in UO like the feeling of beating some dungeon or even just going resource gathering/fishing together as a small or large group.
