what they need is a #tell with multiple recipients feature.  like #tell pecker lastwish ozzy particle, hello. sort of thing, that would be handy sometimes, then it would be worth turning on global ignore because you could still chat with the people that you actually care to chat with without the annoying global bull and without having to go through adding everyone to group or party and using those.

But unless they tell that person back, they are stuck out of the convo.

You might #tell Ozzy, Pecker, Lastwish

Where I would #tell eViL, Pecker

Mainly because I don't know who you are talking to, That is unless it said who you sent it to.

It is still too much of a pain in the ass to keep up with.

Just use #group, and keep the people you want to talk to on it..

A nice idea would to actually clear everyone's group list everytime they disconnect.

OldWorld had a good system. Have a group or buddy list set as a command system. For example...

#buddy [person name]
Would add that person to your buddy list, regardless if that character was online or not, and regardless if that player even had a character name. #buddy'ing a name that was already on your list would remove that person. Simpy saying #buddy would pull up your list in a box, similar to the box that contains your stats on call.

A system like this removes the hassle of navigating your tab menu, and allows you to edit your entire list even when none of your buddies are online. It's a much cleaner system, to say the least.
