I don't know about this...what if you have to go do something, but you wanna keep talking to somebody? you would have to stay in that zone=/ I think it would be better to just have the option to approach a player, and then send a request to chat with them, then if other people want to join in on the conversation, then they do the same. This way, we wouldn't have to listen to all the other conversations going on while trying to speak to a friend or something.
