So I got to thinking about this and thought it might be a cool idea. I'm not sure it's possible or it's something the Lord's would want to do.

Whenever the Lords are on the Lords of Minecraft server, chat gets crazy and impossible to follow along with. And numerous times the Lords will silence chat for whatever purpose. This makes it hard for players to continue playing and communicating back and forward between people.

So my solution to this was that in addition to the global, region, and local channels there would be a fourth channel specifically for Lords. They could make it so that in that channel only Lords are allowed to talk unless they allow others to chat as well. Thus whenever the Lords are on, members know to tune into the Lords channel if they want to comment or talk with Lords. This way the global, region, and local channels don't have to be silenced and can be left open should people wish to still talk while the Lords are around.

Not sure if this would be useful, but it seems like it would be more convenient instead of silencing all three channels.
