I wouldn't know anything about AOL chatrooms as I don't have AOL and I didn't go to their chat rooms when I did.

AH is a social experience, not a boxed game.  AH really isn't even a WW2 game; it just happens to feature WW2-era equipment.  We make our own war, fight our own battles, write our own history.

CH1 is perfectly fine.

I dont like alot of the chatter myself on ch1, thats why I squelch it most of the time, but, just what does anyone think its for if not silly chatter?

For squad stuff, we have a squad channel.
For country stuff, we have a country channel.
For missions, we have a mission channel.
For private stuff, we can comm private.

What is ch1 for if not all kinds of weird stuff. Sometimes it can be funny, sometimes off-topic, sometimes related to a just completed fight.

But, I dont see any reason someone should take it upon themselves to decide what is proper and what isnt proper as long as it isn't profane.

I dont think ch 1 should be racist, off color or vulgar, but other than that, I dont object to off-topic chatter.

exactly..  but... there must be a way to balance their lack of skill on channel one and their need for attention with gameplay.  Right now, the fluffers have too much effect on channel one for the skill required.   If channel one accuracy and skill were needed to fluff then wed would have no fluffers.

A valid point - One wouldn't talk about game ops on 1. A permamanent squelch list would be the ticket...
