Reseting your squelch list
« on: May 02, 2006, 03:24:44 PM »
Is there a way to reset your squelch list once it is full other than exiting and reentering the arena?

Thanks.

Unsquelch voice/chat by right clicking the name on the ROSTER.
Not sure if .unsquelch command exists, but id guess so.

the text command also works.

Squelch lists reset each time you exit the program; not sure if they do if you exit the arena and return.

You can squelch up to 12 (? not sure) people at a time. Either voice or text (via the ROSTER) or both. That list gets reset every time you leave the arena.

I usually have to squelch 3 or 4 kiddies who can't tell the difference between T and F12.

Y'know, I was just aboutto post a question along the same lines.....

ie..how many can I squelch, and how long the squelch list exists.  I thought it might have been saved in settings.

2 questions:

1) does squelching someone also prevent them from sending you a check six?

2) is there any sort of permenant squelch list?

I'm asking these because I've gotten a few bogus check sixes when I was seconds away from achieving a firing solution on some bandit, only to have some $@!#%& swoop in and, for lack of a better word, steal my kill.  Sucks to finally "win" a dogfight, only to have all that effort go to waste.  

[RANT]
Last time was a day or two ago.  After dogfighting one-on-one with some nme for a minute or two I finally manage to get saddled up.  Now I'm just positioning for a shot.  "CHECK SIX"  I look around, can't see any bandits.  Worry a little, thinking "is someone on my low six?"  I stay saddled up, but focusing more on my six than the bandit I'm following, trying to clear my low six before going for the kill.  All of a sudden, bandit I'm chasing goes boom and a 51 swoops down thru the fireball.  I notice the name is the same as the person who check six'ed me, so I ask on range "what was that check six for?"  He says "oh, just letting you know I was coming in..."  WTF?!?  WT squealing F?!?  

I'm still fairly new at this (only been "flying" a couple of months...), was psyched about this well-earned kill I was about to score, and was suitably pissed by this turn of events.  I wanted to scream obscenities at him on 200 and call him out on his *******itude, but decided instead to just squelch the loser, assuming that I'd never hear from him again.
[/RANT]

Unfortunately I didn't make a note of his name, and even if I did, do I really want to go thru the effort of re-squelching him everytime I log on?  No!  I simply want a bullet-proof way to never hear from him again.  No VOX, no text chat, and no bogus check sixes!  Is this possible?
