lets go the extra mile~
 
with ooc and make it so you have to be level 4 to use it :D

would cut out alot of spammers /trollers

discuss.

I think that would be tough on the legit player who's returning but might have some questions out of the gate about the UI and such.
I certainly have needed a lot of refresher after being AFK for 6 years.
Would have sucked a lot harder not to have the friendly people shooting my hints
after asking for them in /ooc.

Did we really need another thread on this?

When population increases I think it would be good to only be able to send a maximum of 1 OOC message every 30 seconds, for example. So people will only use it for important things.

Let's make the ooc like it was ten years ago then.

newbie players can use /tell as well. Most people here are helpful with questions they can answer. I know I am.

I've never regretted posting on a message board before today.

Accidental genius.

My name is Hasbinbad, and I support restricting public channels until level 5.

I completely agree on the point that in it's current state, with a growing population, /ooc is going to need to be re-worked. Honestly, I'm not sure what the real reasoning is anymore for it being global. We have /auction for sales and /LFG for finding groups. Honestly, if /ooc were zonewide not only would it more resemble classic, but people might actually USE the /LFG feature for a change. And new players could still ask their "I dont' know/remember!" questions.

Now, I'm not saying this should be done today, right now, this minute. I just thing that at the current rate of expansion (in the last two months we've seen the the 400 and 500 marks set) we'll soon end up with too many people for this to make sense. I think the only people that could even argue that this should be kept in it's current state are those that have a need to argue about which flavor of gatorade is better or have to meet a quota of 10 smartass remarks to other peoples questions an hour or they're not happy.

Just food for thought!
