This is one of the reasons I tend to squelch Ch1...friggin macro dweebs.

I'll squelch ch.1 when the chatroom mode and/or schoolyard taunting gets to be too much.  I personally don't mind some of the ch.1 (ahem) humor but I record every fight, and I like to show some of the films to friends, family, adults with kids - you know, POTENTIAL SUBSCRIBERS.

HTC, could someone please make it so that whatever/whoever is squelched is kept from appearing in films?

BTW, there is a .vsquelch (voice squelch) command, although I very rarely have a problem with the range channel.

I am truley hurt (sniff!)  Grow a sense humor....It's a game and if your still running a dial up and text is effecting your band width, all I can say is Boo Efen Hoo.  Squelch the fool not the channel.  If you don't like me, I am fairly sure I will get over it.
  Well,  OLDMn must have really peed in some wheatys while I have been away and from what I have seen here so far, more power to him!  Take it to guns and save your flames for the Game.  You and Oedipuss are getting tired.

I always squelch 1 as soon as I jump into the MA.  The silly crud that seems to flow over ch 1 about 75% of the time makes me feel embarrased for AH, and I sometimes wonder what the new guys must think about AH when the read it, since they probably have no idea about squelch yet.  Perhaps ch 1 should not be on the radiobar as a default.  That way new pilots wouldn't be exposed to the sewer until they had already been hooked

[moose]

I shouldn't reply, cuz I *don't* squelch 1

but, i just realized something odd - i didn't think most of the guys who've said they squelch 1 in here still played AH

when you squelch 1, it removes you from part of the game i think.

here's to hoping people will grow up someday so that all you folks can leave 1 open

ROFL....Yaknow, I've kind of made it my personal crusade to keep the tradition of AW-RR macro dweebs in check here in AH. It's worked with the exception of a few in your squad.

If others start spamming Ch1 with macros the entertaining BS that goes on there will be camoflaged by:

'You Suck And You're Dead"

"My nutz are bigger 'n yourz"

"Another kill by the 9yo putz squad"

And let's not forget...

"GRINNNN ININININ"


The kill macro should have died with AW, please let it.

Oh, before you protest that yours isn't a kill macro think of it this way, ANY pre-programed macro sent over Ch1 other than a "Check 6" is spamming the channel. Just what do ya think Ch1 would look like if the same percentage of players from AW that spammed Ch1 with macros were here in AH where there are 3 to 4 times the number of players in the arena?

Lastly, if you want to say your macro lets others nearby know that you're engaging a target then why must it go out on Ch1?

Macros are in check for now in AH, berating those who use them is just my way to keep them in check here.

Nothing personal for sure.

Yeah, that's obvious

Hehe..... actually, I miss the kill macros, there used to be some really clever ones...    I never squelch channel 1 anyway, as I like to be able to chat to other players, especially those I know from AW, as well as others I have met during events, etc.  Never squelched anybody yet, either.  

[SPIKER]

I have to consider myself lucky that my squad and I do not see a problem with communication at all.  The people that we communicate with have been kind, helpful and respectful.  On occasions you would see someone get upset on the text because the opponent would ram.  
 
  Maybe the time, maybe the country that works in our favor.  Wish everyone would have our luck.

Let's face it.  Your Crusade as you put it will fail as they all have in the past.  If bothers you so much squelch us.  Our squad policy is to Never violate TOS, and we never will.  Twits like you and your stupid comments regarding folks displaying humor and fun in A GAME is truly sad.  And Please, do not try to Lump us in with the many Immature fools that Violate TOS with Vulgarity, or with fools like you that have a tendency to Punch out their monitors when they get shot down because they don't have the ability to have fun and take getting shot down as another aspect of the game that makes it fun.  
  I liked most folks that I flew with in Full Realisim while playing Airwarrior, and I played the game pretty much from the day it opened on GEnie and own all 3 sets.  Full Realism Folks didn't like it for bandwidth reasons.  I understood and recognized that UNWRITTEN rule when playing in FR or in Historical events.  But we have to take into account that when Airwarrior first opened on GEnie it was during a time when 2400 baud was the standard, and 9600 cost over 9 dollars an hour to play.  People wanted to squeeze as much as possible for what little bandwidth that was available.
 Bandwidth with the wide use of cable and DSL as well as improved hardware is no longer affected by this very slight burden.  So there is no longer a need.  But still certain Hardheads would want to shove their small minds down everyone's throats.  Sorry pal.  Just because you have a limited imagination, and a puritan need to stifle one of the more fun aspects of the game will not stop the rest of us from Saying What ever the Hell we choose without being Vulgar, and keeping in the traditions of FREE SPEECH.
 We didn't Macro up until this thread was created, but now that you made this an issue, I think I will start just to tick you off.  Keep in mind little man.  You and Odipuss opened this issue.  Not Us. Once we start though.  I would almost bet money it catches on.  Why?  Because unlike yourself.  OLDMn, DE'Ol'ONz and myself are mature players with very good sense of Humor and fun.

Here is an Example of his old Macro in AW.  �When my cannons hit your eye like a big Pizza pie that�s Amore!�  
Mine is in my Sig.  Even Frenchy, and many other FR flyers Macroed  in RR.  Why?  Because it was Fun.  Oh, I am not talking about the Vulgar adolescents, but the creative and Funny mature players that enjoyed this type of play.

Up until now my squadys used in greetings, and during conversations online.  Not in macros after kills like we did in AW.  

Let's make this VERY Clear for those that don't know us.  WE NEVER abuse people.   WE NEVER use vulgarity.  

Your problem Mrlars, is not with us obviously.  But with your stupid need to mold people into an image that you created in that peanut brain of yours.  GET help!

Yep, I always macro'd my kills from very soon after I started playing (in FR).  I "discovered" RR during my time as a Game Assistant, and loved the fact that kill macros were used extensively there..... with some very good ones being created!  I started flying there more often, and of course macro'd all my kills as well.    I don't remember kill macros being an issue until I started returning to FR occasionally and started getting comments when I macro'd a kill.... of course, this had the opposite effect on me and I just did it all the more....  I remember one person always came back with the same retort after one of my kill macros - until I pointed out that his was just as much a macro as mine!  ROFL!

TWOLF,
 
  Count me as one who hopes your squad of phony ebonics speaking children doesn't make macros commonplace in AH. While whatever is macro'd may be funny or cute the first time, by the 5000th time its just annoying.  I have nothing against the the majority of good folks that came over after AW folded but this is one of the childish legacys that should have died when it did.

Hardly.  OLDMn and I are from Chicago.  We were both raised in the inner City.  It has nothing to do with Ebonics.   It has a great deal to do with just having fun with our local culture.  Get a grip on reality.
