ttlanhil Report post Posted October 11, 2007 1) You can name any channel, or change their names. Just edit channels.xml . That works with the shortcuts like "#jc group" "@@group message" as well. 2) There aren't many colours available, and many have other common uses in chat already. 3) I guess using short-names for the channels could allow more use of "shortcuts", but I don't see it saving much time, compared to typing in the number. 4) Eh? You mean like being on more than one channel at once? Or being able to have a shared channel with a bunch of other people? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanyel Report post Posted October 13, 2007 I suppose he meant being able to speak in other channels not entering them. Not really sure what's the sense of this suggestion. I honestly fail to see it. Must be I'm just really stupid lil' person:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
falonor Report post Posted October 23, 2007 Thank you all very much for your answers 4) Eh? You mean like being on more than one channel at once? Or being able to have a shared channel with a bunch of other people? Indeed , being able to message other chanels by using a special comand, very much like the #IG works between guilds , ..... Not really sure what's the sense of this suggestion. that way you can still talk to a lot of people at the same time not having to leave any of your active favourite chanels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not really sure what's the sense of this suggestion. that way you can still talk to a lot of people at the same time not having to leave any of your active favourite chanels The reason you have to be in the channel to talk to it is because of spammers. But you can be in three different channels at one time. That at least slows them down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torg Report post Posted October 23, 2007 that way you can still talk to a lot of people at the same time not having to leave any of your active favourite chanels Read the in-game help. As Learner said you can be in 3 channels at once and #gm and view/talk in each of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sadarar Report post Posted October 23, 2007 The reason you have to be in the channel to talk to it is because of spammers. But you can be in three different channels at one time. That at least slows them down. A feature to talk across several channels at once would be a big attraction therefore to somebody who may be inclined towards spammage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
falonor Report post Posted October 24, 2007 (edited) i guess this is a closed topic then. everyone familiar with the chat sistem knows that you have a maximum of three chanels availavle to use for chanel talk... Read the in-game help. As Learner said you can be in 3 channels at once and #gm and view/talk in each of them. so i really do not see the point in reading the help , when the game is here to develop and is subject to change Edited October 24, 2007 by falonor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ttlanhil Report post Posted October 24, 2007 While I don't necessarily think 3 channels is enough, at least not for the busier people, I don't see a valid reason to be able to send message from outside the channel. What'd the message be, anyway, "Yadda yadda, PM me to discuss"? Better if you're in-channel to hear responses. As for the help... If you're not going to read it, you should not be making suggestions. If it's out of date, post about a correction. If you disagree, search forums and maybe comment. But apart from the newbie-related suggestions (like how to make it easier to find help, get started, etc, simplifying things the oldbies already know and take for granted), you must read and search before posting.
