Title: Squelch Squad Command
Post by: Shifty on August 14, 2009, 07:22:13 PM
I'd like to see a dot command where you could squelch an entire squad. Not having to go through the whole list of pilots.
There's some squads that like to provoke and there's some squads that like to give their squadron instructions on range channel so everyone can see how cool they are. They end up jamming the vox up so much nobody can communicate.
 .squelchsq <Squad COs Name> would be a nice tool to have from time to time.

yeah, that would be cool.  I have a button on my throttle where I've got a macro programmed with a list of those I regularly squelch (kind of like my own perma-squelch list) but it would be far easier to just use a single command for that.

Sorry if it seems I'm hijacking the thread but I have a question on this topic.  How does the squelch command work?  Once you squelch someone are they permanently squelched or do you have to squelch each time you log on?  Once someone is squelched how do you unsquelch them?

Again, Sorry for the hijack.

they are only squelched for that session, and to unsquelch, you type .unsquelch xxxxx

I wish when you squelch someone its remains in effect until you log off.

Right now they can re-log and become unsquelched.

Does said squelched person get some sort of indication that they've been squelched?

1+ this as well, the squeekers need to know how many hundreds of times they are squelched so hopefully they get the message.

What's confusing about his post Oleg?   Right now, if you squelch someone and they log out, then come back in to the same arena.  They are no longer squelched.

Always thought they remain squelched until I log off  :huh Never checked it actually, but dont remember I need to squelch somebody twice per session.

Well well, you learn something new every day, don't you? Might have to take that into effect if the squeekers begin catching on...

If that happened no one would ever hear a word from AoM  :devil
