Jagex is misunderstanding the point of Xserver chat. The point is to be able to talk to anybody anywhere without having to be standing right next to them. Rather than doing this, give us a standard global chat and an Xserver chat you can function with without actually seeing people. It's just going to get confusing like this. We need to move away from the absolute need to be standing in a populated place to talk to people. Gather in populated places to do things, sure. But at least allow us to talk to anybody, anywhere without being right next to them already. Leader of The Enemy ||

Yeah, Clan Citadels are setup so you can talk to anyone anywhere on the island as well. Something I like about them. Dungeoneering is like that too. You can chat with somebody clear on the other side of a Large floor. Saves time in getting through things. Leader of The Enemy ||

Actually, saying that something just hit me. Clan Citadels are shard Worlds. That means each instance of a Citadel counts as being on it's own world. That means Jagex already has the tools built into the engine to do a Global chat. And with this work they are doing here, it shows they already have the tools built into the engine to do a Xserver chat. So why don't we already have these as part of the game right now?

A player who is truly lonely can always choose to log in to a highly populated world and find plenty of others to chat with.

Some other players don't particularly care to socialize, and intentionally play on less-populated worlds so as not to be bothered.

Both styles of gameplay are fine, and ought to be respected. If you want to be social, that's fine. Just don't force it on everyone. The G.E. doesn't have to be packed on every world as it usually is on World 3.

This game is too laggy as it is. No need to increase the lag.

This feels like a bad idea - one where the drawbacks outweigh the benefits. Sure, it might give the illusion of each world being heavily populated, at least in the shared areas. Will the player counts for each individual world be accurate, or will they all be inflated? Aslon Dak: Still 'Scaping after 19 years!

A better use of this feature might be a minigame lobby. People could tag their interest in a game so others would know they are looking for players. Eventually you might get enough to actually start a minigame. NO dancing here, even with 2 people. It's a serious place full of serious people.

Runescape could hang out there and learn teach people how to play.

This is going to add confusion to the game in areas i need to know if it's empty or busy, i can see this being used by crashers to troll players btw....But FYI...I WILL NOT waste my time right clicking all players near me to see if they are in my world.

If i deem world hopping a waste of time again due to this change, i'll just resort back to crashing that unlucky one that is not an orange dot.

I support OP, Lets not do this Cross World BS.

Oh, and please do clues next. Game jam, everyone can play Treasure Trails. See if you find anything that can be improved. Manually. No guides,etc. No overlays.

regarding overlays for clues, nothing jagex can do legally about that. They sealed that coffin in stone with OSRS clients that do way more than ANY overlay can....they allow that, they can't turn down a simple overlay like alt 1.

^choices are everything, some come back to haunt you.

Speaking of choices, you wouldn't want jagex to "fix" clues as you state, "fix" in the eyes of jagex is "break". ;)

It's an RS3 thing on the homepage. Highly advanced stuff, I might be the only one who understands it. NO ... you have no understanding of this matter ...

Oh wow, thankfully you have come along to enlighten us. If you have any further concerns I will refer you back to page 1 post 4.
