This has absolutely no adverse effect on anyone. Quite the opposite, if anything.

You were thrown a bone that was long since overdue. The antiquated chat feature that has existed for years was rarely used. New players will be able to find their way to NEW or figure out why there are no guards in most towns, what's the deal with RoT etc, a lot faster, which could very well result in more players giving Siege a real shot.

Myself being someone who played here for the better part of 7 years am very familiar with the standard devil's advocate stance that Siege players tend to adopt when broad (prodo and Siege) additions are added to the game.

Personally, I think this is one of the better additions this game has received at least since I stopped playing a couple years ago.

Why don't you all just stop shooting yourself in the foot, give it a try, and have a few laughs at the wealth of entertainment and communication that can be had from world chat before you shoot it down and say how "trammy" it is.

Was cool see`in alot of Sieger`s BS`in back and forth last night. Definately helps to bring some life into a sometimes boring atmosphere. Nothing bad can come from global chat IMO. Love it!

For those that don`t.....ya got the "turn it off" option somewhere I`m sure. Where? No clue,mines never gettin turned offt!

I like see`in chatter even if I`m not involved in it. Some light entertainment while I mine,pick cotten,work RoT or whatever. Plus you know your playing with others and not all alone in that big room all by yourself! :lol:

Leaving the chat doesn't seem to end the agony, so what you have to do is find a channel where nobody talks, or make your own with a really boring name no one will wanna join.

Aye, the best part will be when people give their location away when they think no one else is listening! * evil grin *

I want to be able to make password protected private channels too!

He'll find out sooner or later, with his guild collapsing maybe he will start to understand why people have problems with him.

Use , in the old client or /c in the new one.

So that's 1.25 - 1.5 years for your next big 'score?'

I know US have a saying "Once a Loser, Always a Loser", in Denmark we don't have that saying, instead we try to help the guy to get back on the road.
If all keep telling a guy, he is a loser he will never find the road but always stay a loser.
If he get a hand he may changes and end up being a great part of the community.

Well. I am just a kid rigth now maybe ill change and be mature sooner or later
Bad excuse, "being mature" is not a gift you someday get. As long you say stuff like "I am just a kid rigth now" you may never grow up, you have to learn of your mistakes and wish to changes. It called "take responsibility for yourself and your actions".
Some do have parents who help them learn this others have to learn it the hard way and some never learn.

If you start to take responsibility for yourself and your actions and care for others, you will get there soon but if you don't, you may make a hell on earth for yourr self and feel all is against you and don't care for you.

Look like they solved the problem with UO not having unique names. I have 2 chars with same name, the one I made last get the name Crazy Elf2 in the chat, the first one is named Crazy Elf.

But what happens when you log them in in a different order?

*rushes off to create a Crazy Elf character so he can talk in chat about how awesome Wulf is*

From Uhall...

We are working on a feature to allow you to ignore other players in the chat channels. We will release it as soon as it is ready.

Keep in mind, you can petition on players in chat if they are violating the TOS. There is a new way to target players in the harassment petition system for global chat.

My concern is thieves using a disguise kit will be given away by their Character Number if the devs leave it showing.
