If I'm sitting in Dodixie... mission running... why can't I join the VFK-IV chat channel? or the Jita Chat channel?

Could you imagine what would happen if you were allowed to cross talk another local system? You would have people in local that aren't really in the system.

Doesn't Chribba have a tool which he uses to see the content of all the chats?

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

Not ALL chats, but every chat he has a bot in.

So...im sensing that you just cant get enough goon propaganda or you are horribly addicted to Jita Bot scamming. You may want to check into rehab.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

chat channels log to your hard drive if you have them open. No bot required. :)

Why would goons post propaganda in their own system?

Or if you really want some quality entertainment, try a ratting system.

Because local chat channels are for gathering intel.

Because calling it local would be a lie

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

Covert Ops is a ship that can be fit to scout out systems.... It is not an intel gathering System...

Local Chat, dscan, and your overview are the player tools used to gather intel...

yes.
You could have one as well but it violates the eula due to using injection software.
Basically you would need CCP approval to do so.

Still I would like it if local was mirrored into the constalation chat so that you could converse with others.
Well except Jita
