Talk:Global Chat Channel

o.o just for those who have never seen it, this was talken from the last AASQ rumble (in August, next isn't till Nov) and shows the one of the forum Cartels chat channels. Oh, and I'm in the pic as Ruri, with Cuppa commenting on the Heavy thats following us around.. --Sleepy Kitty 15:06, 26 October 2006 (PDT)

PDF link?

I recall that there used to be a PDF of the chat guide. From what I can tell, the link I just added is a verbatim copy of the pdf, but I was going to add a link to the pdf to be complete. Anyone have an updated link? -- StarGeek^{Talk page} 17:28, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

All of the links I can find to the PDF (GlobalChatPG.pdf) are from prior to the main site's overhaul. Looks like that document may have disappeared into the same vacuum that the original Paragon Times articles did. --Eabrace 17:42, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Icons

These two images appear in the game's resource files, but to the best of my knowledge are unused:

I know the "mute" image isn't being used - or it's being referenced improperly - since silenced players in channels have little white squares next to their names instead of icons. I've been hoping to catch a real, live mod on in the I17 beta at some point to see if they show up with a special icon in the global beta test channel list. --Eabrace 00:07, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

napping on the job

o.o;; jee.. I only created this about 3.5 years ago.. and promptly forgot to ever finish it.. Anyway, it isn't in any guide I know of either official or otherwise, but if I'm remembering a conversation from way back when, the Channel Op who created the channel has slightly different permissions than a normal op. That is to say, they're a Channel Op who has an extra flag. The flag in question gives them one of the Channel Admin abilities, that of being able to effect other channel ops. <.< more specifically, (and this doesn't apply to the GUI, just the commandlines) the channel maker can demote, kick, and silence other channel ops, even though they have the same rank. Not really sure if this info should or shouldn't be on the page though.. I've only used it once myself last year, and I have no idea what occurs when the maker leaves the channel as far as this goes. o,o we'd have to pester one of the programmers to find out. (oh, and I answered your post on my talk page Eabrace) --Sleepykitty 16:19, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
