@main

[Nidsrule]

You dont have to have all of their alts in guild at the same time. Kick/add their chars depending on what they are using. Stop making excuses for using main over guild chat for conversations that don't belong there.

Not to mention that @main in itself lets people make friends, and the such.
Although some people's behaviour may scare off some newbies, other people's may help them fit in.

I do believe Bloody just finished posting in other thread that part of the good point of private servers is how quick questions are answered. Have fun, especially with newbies, to do that anyway else.

The whole "helping newbies" aspect of main is the only thing it has going for it in my eyes. Thats not the issue here. The issue is people dragging guild chat onto main chat, having people outside of said conversation insulting people originally involved in the conversation and flaming/arguing ensuing.
