Global OOC In Game vs. IRC Channel
Uh, guys, why don't you just set up an IRC channel for OOC and log into that whenever you're playing? Isn't there already an IRC channel for R99 that you could effectively use for this purpose? Is it incredibly important for this feature to be integrated into the game itself instead of using an IRC client?
If I'm missing something, please let me know. Just trying to help out. | ||

They know there is an IRC channel, they don't use it.

The irc channel is not well advertised.
I suggested they put the info in a sticky on top of the pvp forum but it never happened. Too busy not doing anything about harrison shitting on the forums maybe. Im sorry, that was a cheap shot. For god's sake, ban this fucking moron. | ||

lot easier to have an in game channel than it is to wait for people to download an irc client (isnt like the old days where everybody used irc) and for some of the younger folks learn how to use it/configure/whatever.
essentially how many people participate in something is directly proportionate to how much of a pain in the ass it is. this universal law of truth can be applied to anything, a good example is the 500 people that quit when they remembered how much of a pain in the ass levelling in eq was. | ||

Before this thread gets all shat up with people calling each other names and arguing about who exploited what and who cuts what kind of meat at where, let's just agree not to go that route this time.
Is this assessment accurate: the IRC channel is a viable alternative to OOC. Barring some deus ex machina scenario in which global ooc is implemented, it should be publicized more to let people hang out/communicate despite problems with a low population. Edit: Sorry Darwoth, I didn't see your post while I was typing mine. Maybe there are simpler alternatives, like a chat room service that runs entirely through a web browser, that could be used? | ||

If you have anything meaningful to say that is relevant (i.e. not related to somebody's reputation as a cheater/exploiter) feel free to say it. Otherwise we can look at your post history and pick one of about 95% of your posts and hear that sort of thing. | |||
