    No? Small group conversations don't work in global or pm, and the fact of the matter is if I want to be able to talk with a group I play with on the server, I should be able to do that on the server. The small niche communities that town chats provided help maintain the community as a whole, and that's what should be our #1 priority.

    All I'm trying to say is there are alternatives to this. I have objections to bringing them back, but they were removed because the hub was coming. These channels could interfere with the hub somehow so I was just saying to figure out the hub first so that it can be tested to see if there are any issues. If there are none then I'd say +1, but I don't know if it will affect the hub and that is why I don't want them to come back just yet.

    Well - I have a few ideas, most of them not part of the suggestion but somewhat related to it.
    1. Change VIP chat to dark green. It is too similar to parties as it is.
    2. Change SG chat to purple, like the PVP world, so that the chat can stand out.
    3. Allow chat channels (server-exclusive unless Jamie can code something) to choose a color like before, but one that isn't used for a chat. Currently that's only codes 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8, however, and they are all fairly dark colors. I could definitely see Auction color as a viable option as well.

    They'd only have a chance of coming back in the very, very far future.
