Since channel 1 is the help channel, I think the game should reflect this by labeling it [help] instead of [1]. The /join command should also be updated to accept "/join help" as a way of joining it (assuming it doesn't already).

This would make it more obvious what that channel is for without us having to inform new players all the time. That should result in less off topic chatter.

YES. People often mistake that for the main channel, which is annoying to constantly have to correct.

Hmm, noted. At least some sort of title display, like "1 - Help Channel" would be good.

Additionally, relabel channel 100 to "100 - /b/"

Yes leave the number, add a title, that would be good. Label other dedicated channels too please.
