Furthermore,

/q question channel
/y (you) talk to the person nearest to you
/z1 chat with zones to the left and right of your zone
/z2 chat with zones above and below your zone
/z3 chat with zones diagonally up left, up right, down left, down right
/X silly chat (for when you want to be silly)
/O option chat: for when you want to chat about options

Necessary additions, in my opinion.

Great thinking, great ideas. Easily can be implemented.
