Hercules comes with an inbuilt channel system for global chat[1].
You need to join a channel to see messages in it; when logging in, you will automatically join certain channels, others you will have to join manually.
These settings can be changed via the Titan Guide, which will open an NPC dialogue where you can toggle autojoin for every channel in the Login Settings.
