Players can no longer tune channels?

Channel 1 is "ALL" channel and can't be turned off at a player level. It was disabled in the MA in AH2.

Well it needs to be disabled, it's full of the same crap 200 is.

People don't use it much but when one person starts it turns into a crap shoot. Make 1 comment about the bish and 7 of them will be coming at you there.



ALL channel either needs to be detunable or disabled sooner then later....want a none toxic community that is the  first placentury a troll will start...I would know I am one occasionally ;)

Don't tune to the channel if it is that much of a problem......the rest of us like it.  :aok

You can filter out the All channel in the chat preferences.

Type ".squelch 1"
In AH II it stays squelched, but in AH III you have to type that every time when you log on.

Can't be removed from text chat. Confirmed. Guess I just wasn't paying attention. Mt text window is kept to minimal size. I'm into vox. Even then, sometimes that's painful. Sez lez vez.

Sounds like pre-flight to me.

Mouse over your chat window.
Right click on the "all" tab or right click in the space at the top and click "add tab"
Right click on the tab you want to edit, uncheck "1 and 200".
Click Ok.
Profit.

It's not tuned in but that means if someone sends a salute I won't see it, and I try be courteous and send those back.

If you detune the white channel,  you lose salutes.

Got to love it I admitted to being an offender in the quote you just took from me AND I even said on channel 1 that channel 1 shouldn't be a thing because you can't detune it...which I was wrong about because from this thread...you can BUT I would still say make it easier like 200 is

Come on guy, try to act like I'm a hypocrite or smear me please do it with something that actually works....I know I'm an A hole...but the people I'm an A hole to are also A holes :aok...looks like you may have made the list.

What he said.   I tried it early in AH3 and found out first hand.

Please get rid of all channel ASAP.

Yes, but doesn't this also turn off system messages as well?  Things like salutes?

I would rather not have to go through the time to turn off channel one and lose the salutes AH II had All Turned off in the MA.

This...I don't understand the logic by having it on when other decisions for the game are "rumored" to be made to create a less toxic community.

This is the only reason I still have it unsquelched.  Please remove all but salutes HTC.

How?
Title: Re: Channel 1 needs to be turned off
Post by: 715 on January 22, 2017, 02:18:08 PM
How?

Easy, when a person has ch 1 detuned don't block the .s name type salutes.  So <S> type text salutes would be lost but "automatic" .s name ones wouldn't.  Or is that the way it works now?  (I have ch 1 blocked and never get salutes, but then I never do anything worthy of a salute, so what do I know.)  I know there is a similar problem for people who don't want to listen to the base warning audio and block "Warnings": they lose audio check six warnings.

There is an arena setting that will allow (or prevent) players from typing on channel 1 (the "all" channel). Even if ch1 is disabled, it still allows system messages like salutes to be sent. I'm not sure why HTC decided to enable it for players.

Given HTC's penchant for "because that's the way it's always been before." I'm pretty surprised this happened and has gone on for this long if it was an oversight.

Maybe it's an experiment to see if players have learned how to play nice, and be respectful to each other.

I don't think player behavior will ever change...

Post by: Creton on January 23, 2017, 12:31:24 PM
There is absolutely no reason to even be able to communicate with the opposing teams. If you feel the strong desire to communicate with someone you shot down, then you can always PM them.

And don't make me be a starfish because I assure you I can be the biggest nastiest starfish on the channel. Butt I ch0ose not to be one.

Nope it won't, why games put measurements in place to try to minimize it. CSGO recently made griefing bans permabans....still have toxic players but those who aren't willing to do the work to have multiple accounts have stopped being as bad.

Bolded part, I fully disagree...  Respectful dialog is always fun, and I really do enjoy it most of the time.  The other day I dove down on TA57 and after dismantling his ride with my 8 50's I promptly ran into him, and took my own wing off... His comment on 200 had me laughing out loud...  I would have missed that had I not been tuned...

There's nothing 'disrespectful' about radio silence. There's a lot of disrespect in genital measuring in public (to the whole community, aamof).

That was the nice thing about 200.  You could choose to have it tuned.  With all channel enabled, there is no choice.  So we are stuck with the taunting, whining, politics and general sweetheartbaggery, just so we can witness the occasional niceties.  I'm getting ready to de-tune channel 1 again.

I think it would be fine for folks who do not want it turned on to not be able to use it.

No reason to salute across teams either. Once everyone knows it is off when folks do not tune in.
