Which will likely still occur. You'll have noticed by now the chat tabs? I do think of realm chat as 'trade' chat only insofar as it's communal. People are far more kind and respectful, the language rarely becomes offensive. It does, though, become varied. We have a huge number of worldwide players. I enjoy the music of language so for me, whenever a few people begin to speak Dutch or Italian or German or Croatian I just watch and enjoy. Most everyone does speak English too, though, and realm chat will be primarily in English.

You will discover, in the war zone slang, that a few Spanish terms are in use also on Horus, inherited from the player base that played on Ra before Horus was started. Most notable is the word 'aca' ( 'acá': here! this way!) used when spotting an enemy, and the acronyms for the bridges: "pn" for puente negro (black bridge) etc. Some people still call the vulcano crater in Alsius wz for "pozo" (the hole). Short and easy to type words stick, I suppose.

Apart from that, multirealming is a violation of the rules, and although NGD hasn't been enforcing it, they should. It messes up the realm balancing calculations; some of the more exceedingly lame multirealmers show up only for superboss killings (and then leave, potentially with a rare drop that never will be used for the realm sake in combat), some I suspect hoard around in all three realms in a pack creating momentaneous severe realm unbalance which makes the war zone acitivites predictable and boring. (you can't do much when outnumbered 5:1) Rumor has it however that they are banning players now who are caught using multiple accounts, so maybe they have finally started to do something about the problem with MR's.

You don't actually need multiple accounts to try out different realms. If you delete all your charachters, you restart from scratch and get to choose realm again. A fast way to experiment without losing you chars in the selected realm could be to toss in some cash for xims, and start new characters on the test server Amun when it is open for public (and buy an instant lvl 30 scroll etc). Xims spent on Amun are not spent for real.
