biggest thing that bugs me is the way in which we are actively encouraged to be ante social.
what am i talking about?, well i spent a little over 2 weeks on the starter island where i meet and party with a great many people, My feeling is that the very first people you meet in any game tend to be the people you will spend the majority of your game time with iether in person or just chillin and chatting.
whilst on the island there is absolutely no problem at all just chatting with said people as region chat is avaliable for this purpose, BUT....... i then leave the island and go to my race homeland and i am forced then to totaly forget the friends that i have just left behind because there is no facility to chat with them globaly, yes there is universal chat where you might be able to squeeze a few words to say hi to your mates but it's not designed for idle banter and you are very soon reminded of this fact.

Use tells i hear you say, fair comment but as you all know when someone /tells you a window will pop up on your screen and most likely obscure your view for a few seconds (usualy at the most crucial time), "well thats not that bad surely"!!

Try having a /tells conversation with 6 or more people then say that, my suggestion and the obvious solution would be to incorperate a "Global" chat chanel, this would work in the same way as the universal chat channel without the restrictions, i think this would solve 2 issues 1) the improper use of the universal channel 2) it would enable people to keep in contact with the friends they have made that are not in their region.
