I would like to submit a petition to AH that would create another 3 country channel. This new channel, frequency to be determined, would allow some of our more 'sensitive' players to monitor. Things get said on 200 that are sometimes less than flattering. This new channel would ban the words Dweeb, Ho, Politics, Religion, Sexual Orientation, Feminine Products, N00b, Pwnd, <-----, Owns, etc. All the banter that normally takes place on ch. 200 would never exist on the new channel. The new channel would be a feel good channel, where the honor and respect that this video game deserves could shine the brightest. What do you guys think?
-
why not just keep 200 ch and band the words on there
-

Because some people like those words.
-
Don't run from 200 change it from the inside.
-
so this would be like the elevator music channel for the community?
well actually for some of us it would be the dentist office music channel, soothing our way into a very painful experience!

Jesus H. Christ in a chicken basket - how can anyone actually get emotionally rattled / upset over something that's said on 200?
If you're that overly sensitive and easily offended, then don't monitor 200 - or learn not to be such a squealing pansy man. How old are these guys getting offended/upset over stuff said on 200? I hope they aren't grown men, but it wouldn't surprise me.

I'm about 6 months into the game. I tuned to channel 200 when I first started and couldn't keep up with it. I tuned out to focus on the game.
Now I tune to it because it's funny stuff. It is hilarious to see adults cry and whine about cartoon planes and intangible words displayed on the screen.
I hardly partake in the arguments but they are sure fun to watch.
-
??? you mean you want too use 201, or 202, or 203, ect.ect.ect, last i checked all the 200 channels work across all countrys. use just have to find someone one the other side that wants too read your posts! :aok

Ok, let's say that someone who plays this game is gay/overweight/a rape victim etc, and they see references to one of those things on 200, they may be (understandably) be upset by that.
As the people who say such things on 200 in the first place are very unlikely to be considerate to other people's feelings, I have to go with TwentyFo on this one, and I think it's a good idea.
P.S. I just find 200 funny, but not everyone will.

:lol I am Captain Awesome of the S.S. Badass - but my coolness pales in comparison to some of the popularity seeking uber drama queens that frequent these forums.

That's a rather extreme example, and that's just something they have to deal with whatever way they can, that's their issue, it shouldn't be cause for us to behave any differently. I don't condone the immature BS spewed on 200, but that is just the way it is when it comes to online gaming, it's terrible and pathetic, but that's how it goes. These special needs/sensitive people need to understand that the world is a harsh place sometimes, especially the world on the interwebs, but they are only words, and it's in a only a game.
Gotta have thick skin, and get a sense of humor about these sensitive issues.
Wow!! What did he do?
Well, I don't guess he had much to do with it actually, but I think that saying is just funny. Jesus, in a chicken basket, ha - how about that.

I agree with you, but I still think that if something can be done to help prevent people becoming offended in the first place (i.e. TwentyFo's proposal for a 'clean' channel), then it ought to be done.
-
Yea I agree - clean channel certainly wouldn't hurt. I guess everyone just needs to decide on a channel and figure out a way to filter it? Might be easier said than done.
-
Just get off 200. :rofl No one is making you read it....twentyfo what is wrong with you? Your usually the one I hear screaming that stuff you want banned anyways. :rolleyes:
-
:cry :cry :cry Mommy the bad men are talking dirty again.. Are they going to look through my window again. :cry :cry :cry
What a bunch a dweebs, Ho`s, Twits, and so on.. :cry :rolleyes: :D

Well if you're right then obviously this new channel he's suggesting probably wouldn't be his favourite place, but I still think it's a good idea.
-
Name the new channel the Rainbow Channel since it's fitting for those that would tune to it. I swear, for a game that is a war-centric PvP game, there sure are a crap load of limp wristed nancies that play.
There is already a feature in place if you don't like what is said on Channel 200 and that's the ability to change the channel or squelch the player that is hurting your sensative sensabilities. Or better yet, get a thicker skin.
ack-ack

it's already in-game. use CH 1 :aok

You've got a valid point, but this sort of stuff isn't only confined to 200.
-
Apparently the Aces High community does not understand satire.
-
No.. What makes you a third open channel would work when the first two didn't?
-
Absolutely horrible troll, even though you probably would like to see something like that in game. Wouldn't surprise me.

Isn't this what the O'club is for?
;)
-
Its a fine idea. It would work for maybe 24hrs before becoming Ch200 (blue) as opposed to Ch200 (red). Don't get me wrong, I like the notion of it.
-
I would be happy if a new channel was created for the politics and the quoting of song lyrics. Then ban those two things on 200. Then 200 would be less annoying.
-
Here's a proposition, let 200 do whatever 200 does, restrict country and what not. Make country detunable.

Would like to see options to allow you to squelch country and range channel. While we're at it, I would also like to see the MW and EW arenas have Channel 1 set up like it is in the LW arenas.
ack-ack
-
i'm all for squelching abilities of any sort... i only squelch 1 and 6 anyway, but.. i'd like the text buffer totally off my screen sometimes.
toggleable text buffer NOW!

Or.....HTC could ban idiot squads from their members spamming channel 2 with nonesense everytime one of them gets a system message :furious

This is what would prevent it from becoming like 200.

it will never happen :aok

Durn straight! "we built this city" or community and on rock and roll. I mean "people are people" after all. You would think people wouldn't call "the kommisar" just because "99 luft balloons" went by! "C'mon eileen!" Grow a pair! This is "Our house!" after all. "In your eyes" you act like folks would "want to pour some sugar on me!" Heck no! I'm like a "renegade that had it made and got hit for a bounty." Nay! "We are the champions my friend!" Sure we have differences but its like "ebony and ivory..live together in pefect harmony..side by side on my piano...now why can't we?" :cool:

Falc just because your a doctor doesn't mean that you should prescribe your narcotics. I'm pretty sure that its unethical for a doctor to self medicate in the doesage amounts you must obviously be taking!
good luck with those NA meetings

most of whats said on 200 doesnt bug me .The only stuff that does is when it is very crude and there are children present .
