    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Network Wide
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Questions Channel
    What are you suggesting:
    A separate chat channel for questions and answers about the server.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    Every time I go to ask a question in the general chat, I worry I’m being a nuisance to others. If there were a separate channel for questions, people would feel more comfortable asking.
    Other information:

    Plugin or custom addition:

    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    I personally do not mind having players ask in global, very often you will ask a question that other users may be afraid to ask and you would help them! On top of that users may not stay in an additional chat channel, asking in global allows them to help out when staff may be unavailable! I personally dont think this is necessary altho I can see the appeal to newer users!

    A questions channel could mean that the questions are coloured differently.
    The different colors can then stand out in the general spam of the chat.

    I've seen many times where questions go unanswered due to the spam of the chat and the player will need to ask again.

    By just having another channel, it could mitigate that issue

    The majority of people who ask questions are new builders. They won’t know how to switch channels and will still ask stuff in global.

    You're right it's not, so now it becomes the question of how much will it get used? who is it benefiting? Having made a similar suggestion months ago i now see how limited it would be in both capacities

    Builders won't immediately know how to switch channels. /ch global is fine for your questions. :)
