Sometimes it’s good for your sanity. Permasquelch would be great. Hard to remember and retype names every time you log on.

YA don't have to type anything. right click their name in roster, in the menu it has Squelch.

Well worth the clicks to squelch players who need bibs. That foamy frothing of the mouth has rabies

sometimes players get tired of peoples sheet. I have my moments when i troll or get tired of the hypocrisy and call out the bs going on in the game. But lets be honest, people disdain for me aint like 99capera or Shane. You see, I will send these haters back to tower with the quickness unlike other players they are used to. This creates suspicion which runs rampant on the bish with all their toxcitiy existing to this day. When im talking sheet and it bothers folks, there is some existing hate going besides my mouth. It aint the same...  :bolt:


The ones squelching me are weak minded or not invested yet want everybody to get along and show resorct whether earned or not. Lotta Karens these days.

I’ve never even thought of squelching you.

Anyone who has spent time with your well crafted missions develop a fondness for your presence. The enemy not so much, for good reason. Some think you’re just out to pummel a  country, and thats part of the art. Mostly what you’re doing is inspiring battles.

As I said when you weren’t logged in, you’re good people who has passion in the game. The group we run is top notch in my book, and where yall go my ars will follow to be shot down trying, because a battle is coming.

From now on, I enter game, look at roster, and start squelching before even starting my plane. I have a very low tolerance for nonsense.

It’s not that difficult to define. Not sure why some children have such a hard time.
Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

I only occasionally detune 200. I tend to have fun conversing with friends on opposing team. I’m not the best, but I hope I learn from the best and they are on opposing side. It’s just a few that occasionally need squelching.

To each their own.

If its simple describe how its done in AH.

Frankly, it takes me 3 seconds to squelch someone.

Some players, including myself, run hot and cold, not always a PITA.

I’m unaware macros can be run in AH. I’m not sure saying how is a good idea, it can open flood gates.

Some stick and keyboards come with software you can use to set up macros. Also 3rd party software like "Voice Attack" can also be used. All they do is run a set of key pushes when you hit, or "say" the macro hotkey.

I had a script my Xkeys would execute as a macro from a text file of names. However, I never had more than a name or two to squelch back then. Even if I had a perma squelch I would have maybe 5 people on it.

More often then not they would eventually either leave of their own accord or get banned.

However that was also before the current practice of letting the worst of the worst back into the game.
