GLOBAL ooc/auction. Poll time.

[MogManX44]

yeah, people wont shut up about it

[feanan]

good luck finding a rez or port as well. every druid and cleric will be /role or /anon.

i really wish people would stop using "its classic" as their reason for wanting it off. i think we can agree that there are enough things on this server that aren't classic that this shouldn't be a battle cry

but, yeah, this all ready sounds like a done deal, so just do it all ready

because they dont want to rez or port? :P

[Phallax]

I voted no, but im really agnostic on the poll.

If it werent for me talking in OOC and /auc'ing somthing I wouldnt have had the 10 or so people I knew from live reconize my name and send me a tell thus Id probably never know my old guildies / friends from my live server played here.

finding a rez or port in classic was tough, just like traveling, leveling. ect. ect. why should this aspect be changed for conveniance?

I use global auction all the time- not to sell, but to keep an eye out for things I want to buy. Global allows me to do this while soloing. I use global ooc all the time to amuse myself reading the funny and sometimes asinine things people say, and sometimes even getting into the conversation myself.

Limiting these to zone wide channels will definitely be an inconvenience to me. However, I voted: yes, limit them. It's part of the classic experience. It's not convenient, but there are a lot of things about classic EQ that aren't convenient.

Also worth noting: I think everyone here knows that the moment we no longer have global ooc, we're going to have an irc channel that everyone and their mother who currently talks in ooc joins.

There already is an IRC channel. When this goes through (which looks inevitable at this point) expect an #auction channel to be set up as well.

irc.eqemulator.net port:6667 #project1999

Yep. Pretty much. The 15(?)% of the population that uses the forums and the 1% that uses IRC will use it for auction. Everyone else will most likely use a trading area in game.

Oh no the horror :P
