Title: Channel 1
Post by: Raptor on November 18, 2006, 10:51:45 AM
Why was Channel 1 brought back? (Not complaining, I actually prefer it to 200).


You know you've been playing AH a long time when you have to explain to someone what Channel 1 is. Had someone PM me asking how they could see what I was saying even though I was on a different country.

I found Channel 1 enabled in EW, not that sure about the other arenas.
And I do prefer 200, because you can turn it off :aok

err it's ok as it is.  Please don't make it default.  All the blasted newbies pick up the bad things quicker.

You can turn channel 1 off as well.

How do you turn it off? I was enjoying EW and MW recently, but channel 1 was changed to 200 for just this reason, wasn't it? Just fills your text buffer with the same annoying arguments and whining.

Just tune it to another channel.  I think thats how I turned it off back in the day.

Wrong.

It is not tuneable. You see it even if it is not selected in any radio. You cannot turn it off, which is why I asked in the wish forum to make it optional. The only option is to squelch, and squelch and squelch... ;)

I think eliminating channel 1 in favor of a tuneable choice was a very welcome decision for many.

While that works very well, it sadly squelches the ".s"  command too.

So everytimeI do not want to hear all that bragging, the pointless talk about american domestic policies or pseudo-sports like football (j/k), I also appear to be arrogant & rude for not reacting to after a fine fight

Thing about it is I have not seen many people abusing Channel 1. Most still tune to 200 and I tune to channel 1 whenever 200 becomes too serious for my taste.

Not many know about channel 1 yet. Most even think it to be 200 when they see the letters in white, they donīt notice the absence of the numbers "200" after handle when someone types in ch 1.
Most people Iīve seen typing in 1 yet were newbies.
