We're pleased to announce a new feature being added to the Mobile Armory: Guild Chat!

Coming soon in an update to the Mobile Armory app available in the iTunes App Store (http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSt ... 57000&mt=8) and Android Market, this new feature will allow all World of Warcraft Remote subscribers the ability to chat with their guildies right from their mobile device. Access to the guild chat feature is included for no extra charge in the €2.99 World of Warcraft Remote Auction House (http://eu.wowarmory.com/wow-remote.xml) premium monthly subscription. In addition, soon after the launch of the mobile version we're planning on adding the ability for premium subscribers to use Guild Chat through any browser on the Armory website.

Guild Chat will allow you to chat with your guildmates via Guild Chat, Officer Chat, and Whispers. Now you can stay connected with your guild or update them from anywhere if you're going to be late to a raid! Stay tuned for additional information about this service and the upcoming Mobile Armory Guild Chat beta test.

... I know you haven't been playing a lot Pincus, but if people start typing like that in guild chat I'll kick them out of the guild - simple as that.  Typing like you have some form of education is a requirement, after all!

There is an RP room on the chat that we have. It's empty. I don't see any attraction here.

^-- This.

The last person to use our in-character room was, in fact, Abric, making a very OOC post.

Regardless, I'd like to see how Bliz handles it. Is it 2.99 to chat and move stuff on the market.

Since, you know, I wouldn't want to make an interface to our anyone's chat server for any reason. None at all. .>

Completely different than what they are proposing here.  You get to talk in guild chat (and whispers) to people ingame via your mobile device... vice having an RP channel on a separate chat client that more than half the guild doesn't don't know about or are unable to make it work. 

I doubt I'll be using it on my mobile, but could be interesting for anybody who does a commute in the morning or evening - or people who live on their phones while standing around doing stuff.  More opportunity for the talkie-talk.
