.a Won't work for alien hivemind.

Bug Description: .[radio key here] can be used instead of :[radio key here] (But not for common channels.). It's more convenient, and you won't ever go ;g ABSORBING AI IN MAINT or what-have-you. And it mostly works here, except with alien hivemind.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Be alium.
2. Use .a.
3. Cry as you suddenly look like a giant fool to all those in range, as you say ".a Let's build the hive." to everyone in range.

That /does/ work, but .a should work too, is what I'm getting at.
Unless .a was purposely revoked and all the other radio keys (Marine stuff, for example) were left in, which would be kinda odd.
I can use .h, .q, .a, .m, .p, etc.. for talking in marine squad chat just fine, for example.
Not very many people know you can use '.' in replacement of ':'.

Not a bug i belive
The hivemind isnt a comms channel
Its a special channel in the same way for the :g for lings and :b for borgs

.g and .b work on other servers. As does .a.
