I was on then as well, all those people working together to explode the text buffer of everyone in game because they don't like one person, zero manners. What none of these people get is if they'd send PM's to him instead they can still get their kicks and leave everyone else out of it... oh, but that's what Dallas does and nobody wants to do what he does.  :rolleyes:

But HTC has given us the option to turn off the All channel now, which is what those are sent on. If I miss someone sending me a .salute in the future so be it I guess, blame the children giggling about how they think they're picking on one guy when in fact he gets more kicks out of that crap than they do.

The irony is that they text buffer flooders were making fun of excessive saluting.

It would be better if they just took away vDallas ability to PM.

How do I do that, please?

Right click on the chat tab and select "Edit" and then uncheck system messages and you won't receive any system messages including <Salute>.

I actually believe it is quite fitting. Its just like all the suicide Oompah Loompahs turning up at a base. Most of the names I see doing it have been around for a while and I understand what they are trying to say. Live with it.

I'm sure if vDALLAS didn't send harassing PMs each time he died this wouldn't have happened.  Sometimes people reap what they sow.

dude lighten up we call it the vdallas wave, it doesnt happen very often only seen it twice and the first time it lasted about 30 seconds and I dont know of anybody on any country that wasnt laughing about it.  shoot I bet even vdallas cracked a smile since it was so stupid you had no choice but to laugh.

How about you squelch someone  :huh and it sends that person a message saying "you have been squelched #1" :uhoh. The next squelch sends a message with a #2 :confused: and so on. When it gets to 10 or whatever number HTC  :noid decides (yes they are capable of doing this without the drama i'm sure), you lose text AND vox for 24 hours minimal  :ahand. If we are going to police ourselves than lets not be half assed about it :O. You see the number and it sticks for that many hours even if you log off and log back in. If that doesn't scream "cut the crap"  :old: enough than the .report thing needs to be looked at again :neener:.         :bolt:

How about making the .S command only shown on the saluted player's monitor?  Not really sure why salutes need to be seen by everyone else.  :headscratch:

I was just thinking that too, I don't really care who salutes who, but I'd like to know when someone salutes me. Currently you see all or none.

you know, that's the first time I've seen that.  Must have been late war.  But, who cares.  Be realistic.  How many times does it happen?  If it happened several times an hour, ok, I'll give you that... very distracting from the game.  But come on... sorry.... stop complaining about little things.

How often does it happen? Very rarely

Pay less attention to the text buffer and more attention to your surroundings and ya wont die as much

.squelch 1 works for me. Hec,k I don't get saluted anyway so I don't miss a thing.  :)
Be nice to have an option .squelch 1 vdallas  and have that only turn off salutes to him.
