I had not played in four or five weeks, jump on the game and killed the wrong socially retarded misfit.  Three, two, one and here comes the pms explaining to me what an absolute piece of garbage I am.  Why is this even a feature in the game???  I see absolutely zero merit in it other than running off players.  I have even had them get me on personal voice ranting obscenities.  Can we please just disable it already???

To squelch a player, simply type ".squelch GameID" into the radio text bar using the player's game id. To unsquelch, type in ".unsquelch GameID".

Also report function is good.

No it is not because if reporting something actually had some consequences people would not feel so comfortable rage pming people all the time.  They should have no opportunity to contact me with out me approving or allowing it.  Just kill the feature and we solve the problem for eveyone!

To squelch a player, simply type ".squelch GameID" into the radio text bar. It's probably worth the minuscule effort. Also, try de-tuning 200. If the PMs bother you (and I guess I can't blame you) then 200 is probably a bother, as well. You have the power.

There was one player that I would do that to EVERYTIME I logged on. Run through the roster to see if he was on, and squelch him if he was. I wouldnt wait for him to type at all. This player would take the fun out of the game as soon as he started typing. He is no longer playing..... was kicked out of the game imagine that. 

It works, so does the .report. I just wish the punishments were made a bit more public the the rest of the players would see that it works and that there ARE consequences to their actions, even in a game.

The report feature works great. You will not get feedback but it does work.

Understood.  Why should you even have to listen to that in the first place?  I suppose it's possible to insert a step in the PM process - "Oldman has sent you a pm, do you wish to accept?"
 We have that with the ride-along feature.

But I doubt that would solve the problem.  If you've just killed, say, Oldman (and who hasn't?) and you get an "Oldman has sent you a pm, do you wish to accept?", you might reasonably assume that the pm says "Congrats Dougie!" and click on the "yes" button to bathe in glory.

- oldman (and only wieners would send a nasty message)

reporting does have consequences.  they just wont tell you.  seen guys get squelched for days at a time, like that red hat guy.

Report and squelch.. if they continue, id assume it would be dealt with.  I kind of like when they get mad at me, so i vote to keep open communication.  Ill also get friendly PM'd too asking about settings, or how i accomplished something.  No need to remove it from the game.

/. report Lazer. Seems almost natural!

I have friends on other teams.  Sometimes we like to PM and catch up. 

My advice: Grow thicker skin, use the squelch command.

Put of curiosity if you report someone for a voice pm is it recorded and sent for review? Or just text
