Global ooc is whatevz, I don't really care if it's allowed or not since I won't be able to understand anything these illiterate mongrels are saying half the time, but yellow text is a horrible idea. Firstly, without yellow text people are forced to brag about their kills on the forums with screenshots, which is actually funny and livens up the server. Secondly, people use the frequency of yellow text in their favour as a gauge of their skill, which creates an expectation for everyone to attack everyone they see. It's okay to play that way if you want to, but it shouldn't be expected. This is the only server in my memory that has a real anti pk guild on it and I think the current ruleset helps allow for this kind of diversity. Diversity is good.
However despite me being opposed to both of these things, unlike most of the red playerbase I'll play no matter what the ruleset is and you'll never see me bitch about it.
