Gobal Chat Question

I am looking for clarification on this point.

When i see someone ask for help on global chat, can i know that the person must be in the same league i am in to be seeing them on my global chat ?

or does Global Chat include players from more than one league at the same time ?


i.e. if i see someone ask for help on global chat when i am playing one of my hardcore characters, does this mean they are also playing hardcore ?

the reason i ask is i have not seen any definitive answer on this, only I THINK MAYBE answers.

if i am playing hardcore and someone in my global chat ask for help but are on a different leauge then i would not be able to help them with that character.

i look forward to a definitive answer once and for all to this question.

thank you.

Chats are league-restricted
And not difficulty-restricted (as some people thought earlier ^_^)
