I was going to address this, but it’s already covered.

Thanks @zelfore!

Can we please blame the devs anyway? I’m sure it was Global Chat somehow!

We should get everyone to go to one global chat channel, like 001, and flood it until it crashes. Sounds like a good April Fool’s joke. xD

Even if everyone in the forums did that, it’s unlikely to affect anything. The forum’s participants are probably less than 0.5% of the total player base.

A channel can only have a certain number of players in. If you try to connect to a channel that’s already full you’ll get a message about it being full, and the chat will ask you to pick another.
