Seems that mostly the crap talkers want ch1 back. They now miss urgently their audience?
Imo a perma squelch function would be better.

Thanks for pointing that out.  You need to pick a different avatar or do some editing on your current one.  That language is not appropriate here.

I won't miss channel 1 in the MA.

However, in the SEA, where I am a CM this is going to make it a little bit difficult to communicate with both sides of the event. I can obviously broadcast in the CM mode (blue text) but its going to make it awkard for people communicate back to the CMs while running an event (guess they have to private tune to the CM.

Or is there another methodology / function that covers this for the CM and CTs in those arenas?

Guess will have to wait and see until the full switch over.

No worries ghostdancer. There is a ch 1 toggle in the arena setup (labeled  communications flags) that I assume will be available for CM's. :)

Post by: Mugzeee on June 17, 2004, 03:55:18 PM
HiTech said he was going to remove Ch1 from AH2.
Im willing to bet. Most ppl thought the return of Ch1 in the beta ,meant it was here to saty?
It looked as if HT was thinking about leaving it. But pulled the plug at the first sign of stupididy. WTG HT

"Seems that mostly the crap talkers want ch1 back. They now miss urgently their audience?

Seems like all the people who simply could not use the squelch command, for whatever reason, are the ones who want chn1 off.

Regardless of what happens, there is a large number of paying members who do want chn1 reinstated.

I just dont understand the reason for this, why have blocking features built into the game. Those features are moot now.

So you are upset because instead of choosing to squelch channel 1, people have to choose to tune to a specific channel to chat with people in other countries? I don't see the big deal. People tell those who don't like channel 1 to squelch it. Now it seems that you don't want to spend the 5 seconds it takes to tune to channel 200. Seems a bit hypocritical to me. Besides, you only have to tune to channel 200 once. It stays tuned when you log out and back in. Those that wanted to squelch channel 1 had to do it everytime they entered.

BTW, I was a big talker on channel 1 (trolling, joking, chatting with others) and do miss it. I just don't see the major problem with having it gone. I tuned to channel 200 on the same radio thingamabob on which I had 1 tuned.

I am too lazy to type the same basic thing all over again, so I just copied this from a post I made in some thread in the GD.  Oh, one other thing.  I am laughing at the people that think this is a major issue that ruins the game.  I hope they don't quit.  A good whine over somethig that is nowhere near as important as the whiner seems to think is always hilarious.   channel 1 whiners!  Keep up the bad fight!

I think the difference is that when new players came into the game, the first thing they would see was all the channel 1 chatter which sometimes must have been quite off-putting.  This way, they can get used to the communication system and the game in general before finally choosing to tune to 200 once they are settled.  New players are more likely to stay if they aren't bombarded with political and religious debates and general trash-talking as soon as they walk through the door.  Also, as stated already - 200 only needs to be tuned once.  :)

Had Pyro confirmed that we can activate channel 1 in the SEA yesterday. So I am happy now .. only need to use as a CM to answer queries from both sides.

Otherwise as a player in the MA I just tend to squelch it.

If you delete your first post, it will delete the thread. Or at least it used to. If you can delete your post. May not work at all anymore.

People who are mad about channel 1 can only be angry because their captive audience is gone.  That is absolutely the only thing that has changed.

This was more practical than forcing people - newbie included that don 't even know how - to every time type  /.squelch 1 (with a missed key or two thrown in thats a lot of typing).  This way much more economical, people who enjoy the trash need only tune a channel once.   Instead of a daily tune-out it is a once in a lifetime tune-in.  Quite sensible.

I guess from our side of things hitech could have just reset the channels to default and taken channel 1 off the default channel list - but this must have been more practical from their side.

Zanth, you hit the nail on the head.  People confuse the right to speak, with a right to be heard.  Well, there is no right, Constitutional or otherwise, to compel people to listen to you.
