Chat Channels
The command /join <channel name> allow you to join a player created chat channel. You can be in up to 10 of these at once. These channels can be seen across all servers (for instance, serverwide.thebazaar), on the server you play on (for instance, a bazaar channel for auctioning gear), or be password protected (and moderated) to protect sensitive information (such as an officer meeting for a guild).

To talk in each channel, you need to find out what channel number the channel you wish to say something in is. To do this, type /list. That will bring up a list of channel names along with the number of people in each channel. Then, type in /# <text> (where # is the number of the channel you want to talk in).

To join a password protected channel, you first need to find out not only the name of the channel, but the password. Once you have both pieces of information, type in /join <channel name>:<password>. To join a chat channel on another server, put the name of the server in front of the channel's name (/join antonius.bazaar).

Player made chat channels are not permanent, meaning that once the last person leaves, the channel is gone, with one exception. Password protected channels last for 24 hours after everyone leaves.

Please Note: /chat and / can be replaced with a ;, for example: /chat set can become ;set

Ya I'm gonna be -- actually had stickied it before and then unstickied it for a few days, as folks tend to miss new stickies.

It'll be stickied soon :).

Very useful. Thanks Rezz, not just for the chat command list, but also for the link to EQ Commands -- hadn't seen that yet.

Two questions:
- How does a player create a chat channel in the first place?
- Are there places where typical channels are listed?

/join a channel, if it doesn't exist, it gets created. Cake.

There is no "server" list of common channels. Mostly by word of mouth or, since EQMac is still only 1 server, you can probably list them on here somewhere.

Typical channels:

Taxi - ports for plat
Resurrect - for free clerics looking to earn plat
Bazaar - for auctioning across the server

Is there anyway to turn off autojoin? So far, I have been able to tell it to join nonsense channels, but have not been able to turn it off.

(Once you invoke it, the autojoin channel turns on any thime you log onto any alt. Funny, there are other things that I'd rather carry over)

I think just /autojoin with no channels after it will turn it off.

I tried that. It appeared to give me one of those error messages that indicates it was expecting a value after the command.

You can edit the line out of your eqclient.ini if all else fails...

Somehow i managed to turn off autojoin for one channel. I'm not sure how i did it LOL

I think i may have simply autojoined the same channel again and it turned it off.
