global handle and toon name 

I have seen it before but I dont know to set it up so that when you are chatting (as on the gameamp channel) you get it to show both your global handle (which is the norm) and the toon you are currently signed in on.

Can someone please tell me how to do this?

Thanks.

so if i want to bind my current toon name and server to z it would be:

/bind z beginchat /send "gameamp.com" [$name $server] *with a space at the end*

is this correct?

That you can. However, the purpose of the bind is for folks that jump around from toon to toon or game to game. It really sucks to plan a team-up, and then you realize that the player you're talking to is on CoV or a different server.

Doh..that was my problem....lol

I've found it quite annoying that everytime after I press my bound key, I had to press space to get the chat started...I suppose a programmer/genius like myself would have thought of putting the space in the bind itself.

RE: global handle and toon name 

yeah if you put commas in between and the lvl can be useful... that way everyone doesn't keep asking you what lvl you're playing if they want to invite you.

mine for GH looks like this:

/bind g beginchat /send "Global Heroics"[$name, $level,H]

with an H or V for hero or villian... sometimes helps.
