13 years ago User created (ie, in-game) channels need to always have their own identifier - changing channels to it would require that id (possibly a name, but preferably a number)
Config-created channels have a name that can be used directly as a channel, such as "/chat", "/party", "/msg", "/reply" etc
Channels need to have a range, default would be "within range & on channel".
Some channels would be heard by default, and need to be turned off, player-created ones would be off by default and need to be turned on.
The API needs to allow automatic channel creation / deletion.
/party would create one for each party (when 2+ members), and limit the viewership to those people.
/tell would create one between the two people, /reply would go back to that channel. If someone else /tells you something then the first auto-channel would need to be deleted.
/ignore would automatically filter out messages by a specific user
