As I have played on a private RP server, it was confusing because the General chat was also used for RP messages, so it would be nice to have 2 separate chats, one for General OOC messages and one for General RP messages.

Maybe the server admins should be allowed to configure their own chat channels.

Local chat?

Also being more relaistic as you can only "hear" it when you're in range.

Sure, role-play in local channel, so if you are holding a market in one hour you will need to travel to every settlement and make a RP announcement.

Now, you're going to tell me that I can use the global channel for that. But the mix of rp and non rp chats in global is quite annoying if you ask me.

That's why when I was playing Neverwinter Nights, the hardcore RP servers out there were simply forbidding the use of Global channel for any non rp purpose. Personally I think that it's better to have two separate channels.

Roleplay: in-character
Not roleplay: out of character

So, either way a Role-play or an OOC companion chat to the global would be handy.

Use global.

Don't make redundant channels.

Okay one says "Use local", the other says "Use global", what else? Use system channel maybe?

Could just make it a server side option to add chat boxes such as a OOC chat or a In Character Chat? All the server host has to do is pretty much check a box or something of that nature for any additional Chat boxes he would like just my two cents....
