Title: "Why don't you do it yourself?" System Wish
Post by: Eustace on October 07, 2008, 02:53:38 PM

If, for example, someone says, "NEED GOON TO A47 NOW!" three times, they automatically spawn in a C47 with troops at the nearest base.  Also needed for the person demanding destruction of ords, guarding of map rooms and turning of CVs.  Should work retroactively for the person wanting to know why anyone didn't do any of the preceding.

I think the request comes because the person making the request is busy defending or hitting another base and that person cannot make the attack or goon drop. Its a team work thing.

I understand what you are saying Chalenge but the constant all caps texting over country about getting troops to a base is a little rediculous. Which is what I think the OP was posting about.

Once is asking for help
Twice is making sure anyone who wants to help, knows you need it.
The third is just starting to get aggrevating and typing in caps pushes it over the edge.

Just my take

What we need is a 30-minute auto-mute for sending three ALL CAP messages in a row within a 1-2 minute period of time.

Anyone who texts in all CAPS gets text muted for 5 minutes. :P

I usually call a "Need ord dead at A###" on my squad channel if any are on. If they are busy/not avail/not on I'll type out a request on country. If I don't get a response in a minute or two I'll ask if any are available. Soon I'll just up and do it myself. I won't just sit there screaming for someone to do it.
