Server World Chat Changer (NOT CHANGE SERVER)
Many games that deal with several servers and a world chat option have something like this. Instead of being limited to one world chat server, there is a scroll option to flip between server chats. Say like server 10 is a annoying chat to be in. Were known as spammer central and mute city. I could just switch over to server 8 were I like talking better.
I know I know people will object this because a lot of people will try to abuse this. So this is how to counter it.
1.) Experts will have same powers in all server chats. (A LOT MORE EXPERT LURK)
2.) If muted in one server, muted in all servers.
3.) If you are a constant offender, you will either be reduced to be able to only talk in your own server. (If continued, then complete server ban like usual rules.)
4.) Advertising a Alliance in another server to pull in multi-account players will not be tolerated. (Example: GotMoWang in Server 10 can't advertise GotMoWang in Server 1 to try recruiting a player in server 1 who has a server 10 account.)
5.) To prevent one server from being too full and flooding, there will be server limits to how many people may enter that server. This is unlikely since not all players are online at once and not all players are going to be in server. But this does eliminate the risk of it happening and crashing the chat (or making it too crazy to talk in.)
Overall this will stimulate the World Chat experience. I know that certain times of the day, my server is almost silent. So players who are in uncommon time zones can switch servers to find a more active server.
