This was something I thought of as hot potato and clones ran today..what if we
could have an event channel or something that kept track of events like Gozgo
and Hot Potato, but without all the spam. I don't want to ignore other
conversations but some things like the potato are easily missed when I don't
put all channels on ignore for the duration. Maybe this would break the point
of the events, but I don't know, it would just be nice to see. Of course this
idea would work best in tandem with the option to tab the channel in the
client, so maybe it could be a client only thing, I'm not sure.

I would really like this too! I find it hard to follow some of these events
when it is blended into everything else. An events channel would make it easy
to route it to one tab.

I like this idea too. In fact, I liked it so much I created a similar feature
long before you even requested it! Check the board in Arelium's church.

Hmmm, maybe I'm not paying attention, but I was thinking more along the lines
of a channel where all the shout spam could go, for example Gazgo's "I am
moving" and the Hot Potato emote, etc, not just a board that says what events
ran/are running. I love the board, its nice to see that events do actually run
and I just miss them all the time, but it'd be nice to also have some place to
put all the spam so I don't miss it in context of xping etc.
