"REPORT CHAT" command. it works !

[Shane]

The main reason I wanted to mention this is because in the past, I've seen some players complaining about HTC not doing anything about players going foul during game play....(when using the REPORT CHAT tool)

The inference here is that those .reported not actioned on, probably weren't valid .reports, i.e., people reporting for non-reportable stuff.  The stuff that is truly overboard will get action on, as evidenced by your situation.

see what i'm getting at?

HTC didn't do anything, at the outset. Buncha people report someone, 'someone', can't talk anymore. (HTC digs into it later on, of course)

[Yossarian]

Good for you!  I for one am very tired of the conduct of online  gamers.  Foul language, threats,  personal insults to peoples family, religion race etc etc.   The surprising thing is that many of the people who exhibit these types of childish behaviors are actually adults.

 I will say that for the most part the Aces comunity is better then most.  Keep up the good work!



Helm ...out

I agree completely.  Why people feel the need to make sexually inappropiate and rude comments to 13 (and under) year olds is just beyond me.

[TheflyingElk]

I totally agree helm.  Vulgarity is the first refuge of the mediocre.

Kinda like your avatar

I will say this about the "chat suspension" thing.  I believe you should be able to type on your squad channel (Channel 4) and be able to use the .s command while chat suspended

no... you're assuming vulgarity.   


which dovetails nicely with my location.

The idea banshee is to make the punishment severe enough, that most people will not become repeat offenders.  As such loss of ALL communication is part of the "punishment". Soften that and you accomplish nothing. Heck if it was up to me, I'd make it so if a person got "reported" they'd get booted for an hour first, then lose comm privs.

Yes Phil it works, it always has worked. It takes a number of people to act in a given period of time.
Which is why most often people who report someone don't see any result.

I suspect HTC can also pull logs of those who have "almost" been reported. Along with exactly what was said, by whom, etc.

DrDeath, remind me never to share airspace with you sir, your a waste of good skin.
You may be a good stick but your a lousy community member with that attitude.

[SlapShot]

I bet noobie Phil doesn't realize that now that person cannot type and he may not relay pertinant information to his country via chat like and NOE ALERT BASE A17.

I'll bet he doesn't give a crap ... and neither would I.

Thank you Sir for your comment !
Still not sure why DrDeath has this negative approach towards me wanting to share good input on the reaction of HTC staff !

Salute Sir...

Ghost makes some good points here but....

This is my favorite part!

He's far from a good stick.   Unfortunately Ghost, the majority of Rooks allow his juvenile behavior to happen.   Also the same for Tripl5 and valdals.   So, the rest of the Rooks are just as much to blame as the three offenders.   Quite pathetic too if you ask me.

True.  But during the holidays or weekends or whatever when HTC staff is not at work, there might be an incident where someone false Mass reports you out of spite or some other dumb reason.  Then you have no way of communicating with private tuning.

 Good of the order...
   I was in the MW last week when us Comcast users were having such a difficult time staying online. Had been discoed half a dozen times in 20 minutes so my frustration level was peaking. Another player and i got into it and with my frustration level already near flash point I may have said something about corn and a fok that really was uncalled for. I was immediately text banned for a week.
I did something wrong and totally uncalled for so I took my punishment and "hopefully" learned from it. 

  Now for my 2 cents...  It would be nice to still be able to .s while on restriction, my squadies were very kind and put up with my requests for them to <S> others for me Thanks Guys!

 Phil, I'm not sure if this was others that reported me or if a moderator threw the flag on me, either way it was the right thig to do.

You must send Rodent some flowers
