lol whats wrong with shout command it would help with communitcation and shard wouldnt look so dead, there are 41 people on right now and i bet 20something at least are macroing. with a shout command the rest of us could find each other

I'm having flashbacks of when Blizzard made the [LookingForGroup] channel hit everyone in the world. Tongue

I'm not sure how often you would need something like that TBH. I suppose you could do a .shout if you wanted to sell ingots, but then you'll have people who spam

.shout Selling Ingots!
.shout Selling Ingots!
.shout Selling Ingots!
.shout Selling Ingots!
.shout Selling Ingots!
.shout Selling Ingots!

Not a pretty picture. You'd have to have a countdown timer to make it feasible. Like you can shout every 5+ minutes or so. That would keep people from using it as a global chat channel, though it kinda undermines the usefulness of the trade forums.

I completely object to a global shout... I do not have enough aspirin for that.

I wouldn't object so much to the idea of a region shout for: minoc/minoc mines, britain and surrounding areas, ocllo, serps, etc.

Still, shout drives me crazy... plus chances are someone would misuse it or find it funny to say offensive things on it. I never found shout to be a healthy feature for a shard.
