I’m less a fan of this, given it advertises player position, doesn’t really operate in an IC manner (I know that can sound like a lame complaint), is relatively spammable, and gives people a potential excuse/method to try and transfer gear more easily to their friends.
But on the other hand, I like what it is trying to achieve. While doing it IC sounds like a drag, I have personally found it is pretty easy. There aren’t normally that many people between 1 and 20, so calling to them, or requesting jobs of them is very easy to do with minimal tell-spam.
The harder part of that is that it requires more of an RP approach on your part rather than being able to put it into the non-conversational/interactive channel format.
As it is now, I see nothing stopping players from already doing this openly with each other. A channel doesn’t seem like the right answer to that.
Cool idea though.
