Ability to text in channels without joining them - Add text channels to the server

[SYOX]

I would like to cross-reference my reply in another thread about general TeamSpeak feedback, which also touches on the text channels topic relevant to this thread:

@SYOX

First, thank you all for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

Global/Persistent text channels:
This has been one of the most requested features in recent times (next to screensharing ofc ^_^), and we’re aware of the gap it creates, especially for new users/communities coming from other platforms where voice & text chats are part of the server, rather than independent services/areas. We’re open to the Idea of having server-wide/persistent text channels on TeamSpeak. The question is not if, but when and how. On the server side, there’s real work involved in doing this right. And the last thing we want to do is rush out a half-baked feature, especially when it’s such a highly requested one.
