Meos, from your post I understand that you are for Global chat. I can prove that Global chat is Evil. First of all, in other MMORPG's when you need to buy something, you just watch the global chat and write what you need. Where the hell is market, player interaction? In old days of Ultima Online, when it was beter, when crafters meaned alot, there was no global chat at all, only the text appeared over your character head. People walked and speaked to each other to get items "face to face". If you need an armor you always know that in that blacksmith shop you can almost always find John Smith selling his items, or if you need reagents just go to that house near the city, you can find alchemist Benny Weed who is willing to make some money there. What I mean, that it makes economy more interesting, more player interaction and such.

I am for limiting all chats as much as POSSIBLE. Not adding the Guild chat would be fail, same as private messages.
