Question Server Wide General Chat

While playing, it can be very quiet in a zone (like BB for example), I could be all alone late at night and there's nobody to talk to.

I am new here so I am wondering is there a reason why general chat is disabled?

Appreciate any replies.

Thank you.

It was enabled when the population was very low (<200) and it is still enabled on Red I believe. But at this level of population global OOC would be unreadable due to volume. Even EC OOC can get bad sometimes.
I recommend joining a leveling guild if you're looking for people to group with and chat with.

Classic or not, i really miss a global chat, or several for that matter.

The biggest problem with global chats, is that they are bound to end up being used for trading, making EC as a trade hub less and less used.
Thereby making people hug less and less.

And as we all know, a person without hugs is a sad person.

I know, just thought it might help boredom, LOL.

But I'll live with it.

I usually have some combination of Pandora or talk radio going in the background. I also have different twitch streams in the background on occasion for something to listen to / interact with while playing.

Or join any guild really; even a mid-sized guild should have plenty of guild chat to keep your chat window filled while you solo in remote places.
