Discuss.
Well, the problem is that they would have the exact same effect as the current channels do -- might as well leave them up and not waste the development effort on getting them to work properly. Also, its vague, but i seem to remember server instability related to chat channels.

More importantly, how is the server rebuild in the new datacenter coming? We still on track for friday, or maybe even a little earlier?

Inquiring minds wanna know!

Chat channels would also give guilds channels for raids. This is a great idea.

Surely this is an April Fool's day joke, 12 days too late? I would hope.

Not that I'm complaining or anything, I'm happy to see the server will still be brought up this Friday...but bonus exp week? That has SoE live EQ written all over it. Honestly, that's WORSE than SoE EQ...they would only have bonus exp weekEND.

Well there was no 1-week-downtime on live either. So imagine the server wouldnt have been down for a week we all would have made some exp. I think the exp event is for getting some "lost time" back.

I think the idea isnt that bad but i dont really care if we get an exp event or not(as long as we dont get exp events every few month).

I just want to play again im so bored [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Ok, if anything push the Kunark release up a week, along with any other upcoming updates...I'm sorry to complain, but bonus exp is just too WoW or live EQ.

True that, Instead of getting 3/4 a blue ill get about a full blue. Not that big a difference. Over the period of the week I guess it will match up perfectly as if it was never down. DDoS'er loses again.
Although honestly, I would be fine without the extra XP, you don't owe us anything extra [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'm a big fan of the chat channels idea, for me personally ooc holds nothing of interest whereas being able to setup channels to discuss shit with groups of people who aren't necessarily in my guild would be excellent.
