Fix help channel already!

Srsly. When you select the "Help" channel as your default channel for a tab, and then select that tab as your active tab, and then select "Active Tab" for where you want your chat to end up, it is still broken, over a year later.

It is still using /help, which is now used to access the support window. When noobs attempt to talk in their brand new game's Help channel, they get told they're using too many args, because /help takes 0, because it isn't for talking in Help channel anymore.

It should be using /hc, which is the new command to send text to the Help channel.

For the love of Cheezits, fix it already!

/signed.

And actually that message should be more "player friendly" versus "tech error message," IMHO. "Using too many args? What?"

This.

The /help command should accept any number of arguments, and ignore them. Then, when the /help window opens, the first line should tell you to use /hc if you meant to use the Help Channel.

And the Active Tab setting for the Help Channel should definitely be fixed.

I will also support a user-friendly error message for the /help, or redoing it like Roderick says. Anything as long as newbs can use the options provided them without making things more difficult than they already are.

I personally am annoyed with the supposed "fix" that introduced this mess over a year ago. Making this suggestion should have been done when the change was first put in place. I know several people (including myself) that have told the developers and community reps about this to no avail.
