brady's full of misleading propaganda...  ch1 has merely moved to channel 200 due to the sensitive,  yet clueless souls, who populated ch1 previously and never figured out the /.squelch commands.

HTC has decided that ch1 shall only be for faux 's to appease this thin skinned crowd.

Ch200 is now the "all"  channel.  simply tune one of the radio buttons to 200.

i.e., /.radio 1 200
Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.

PapaTramp, the common channel (1) has now been disabled due to the high amount of trash talking that was going on there, giving a bad impression to new players.  You can still send an Salute to a player (enemies only) with a new command .s [GameId] but otherwise it is no longer possible to type on it.

Instead many of us are now tuned to 200 which is one of the all-country channels, and which is becoming more popular as others find out about it.  The difference is you have to tune to 200 (only needs doing once) rather than having to squelch channel 1 if you don't want to see it.  Puts the onus on you as the player to make the decision to access the common channel.  ;)

LOL yeah, and it does for the most part.... but keeping family happy sometimes has to take precedence (anything for a quiet life).  :D

Look forward to seeing you there Xargos.  ;)

I thought this would cause problems for newbies, the default radio channel does nothing.
