Good reasons all to keep the text buffer.  No doubt I am in minority on this one.

Most of the time I find I don't have time to look at the buffer until in the tower.  I will try to keep a better eye on whats going on the buffer.

Randy1, with that comment you've proved that mankind still has hope!  :salute

One hint: you know you can choose which channels show in your text buffer? Take the ones that serve you best, so there'd be not too much to read, allowing you to concentrate into fighting instead of reading. Most likely you'd benefit from knowing if there's someone trying to sneak behind you, or that there's a bunch of vultures ahead way up high, so Range and Country might serve you. If you're in a squad, then the squad channel can be of use, too. 200 is for those who love to die typing, it can also amuse during a long bomb run.

I've got an older system by today's standards that still runs the game well by my standards.

How long before Randy's follow up question regarding squelch?  Any bets?   ;)   :bolt:

Just imagine replacing the country text channel at peak time with a country radio channel. :)

WOW, HT would have to add 1000 more slots for squelch :frown:
