What about the idea (not mine, but I like it) of turning them off on a trial basis: say 2 weeks or a month, then running another poll to see how people are liking it?

Although this is a decent idea the poll is probably going to result somewhat the same.

It should probably just get removed, though I highly doubt we are going to see anything like EC/NFP/GFAY back in the day. In fact it might discourage new players as items to buy will become far harder than it currently is, or it was in classic. Regardless of where people gather, we will not see(with the current pop) the 100-200+ people trading in a zone like there was in classic. Having to run to a zone to see <50 people selling items and not find what your looking for will be discouraging.

i voted to keep it.

many people look back on the game from 11 years ago with very rose coloured glasses, myself included. I think there is something positive in the game that it was magical for many of us back then...and that magic is still there, but simply put, we can't remember it exactly, no ones memory is perfect, so if some things are different for the better (in which i do feel this is for the better) I don't see an issue with it. There will always be spammers etc. But the server population is small enough that global is a greater help than hindrance....I know tons of people that want to pretend they are on dial up again....but I can't. I came from too many cold efficient mmo's where no one chats or bs's while grinding... I like having an active and chatty community, in fact that is what i downright missed from eq.

keep it.

Aww man - that would be the best. I still remember the rush I got at level 35. Love that UI. Very very very very good.

Yeah i like classic and all, also voted for ooc to be removed. But the first ui and the "stare at your spellbock" thing is just too much imo. Im very very happy this is not the case here. Also i dont see any problems with item-links, they just make the auc channel less spam.

I voted no i like being able to form groups and sell items from any zone. not everything has to be classic for everyone to have fun. I think if you got rid of the global chat people would quickly quit due to the difficulty in finding a group or the forums would turn into a lfg site. If you do choose to get rid of the global chat could you keep a global lfg channel please? If you people dont like spam i dunno why you dont just filter /ooc chat into a different box of its own.
