Channel one, every sim has one.
I enjoy channel one and use it for to good fights, finding out who I fought when it was a draw, or throwing in a "funny" when it pops in the mellon.
It also can be used for talkin smack.
Channel one here has a decided lack of smack talkers. I really haven't seen one to tell the truth. A good smack talker is a pleasure to read.
There's an abundence of trash talkers here. Trash talking takes no brains.
What I see is that a fair amount of people here confirming their lack of brains on a nightly basis.
Thing is, they have no concept of how sad there attempt plays out.
Quite a few here have some years under the belt outta the school yard. Hell my kids have some years outta the school yard.
When your tits are no longer green, trash talk is a glaring admission to ones own lack of imagination.
And to broadcast that fact to the general population would...or should be embarrassing.
Saying "You suck HO dweeb" is a brilliant sentence. Quite alot of thought went into it, and everyone else really enjoys reading it.
Thats trash, thats not worth the read, that just fills up the buffer with Pap.
Talking smack takes some thought, and is a pleasure and amusing to read.
"Wow what a unique reversal barfart, you practice that ??" Is much better than "You suck HO dweeb"
Step it up a notch, let's grow.
I know we can do it...

.squelch 1
Automatically type it when I pop into the tower when I first log in.
Which is sad, because I have friends on all sides I like to talk to, , and occasionally talk "smack" with. Silat is quite good at it. :)
No amount of encouragement will elevate "trash" to "smack".

palef.

no, that was just dumb

.squelch 1
most times ignored, not squelched for reasons, but if I kill shane, I .squelch 1 so I do not have to listen to her.
-
We need an O'Club channel, deninitly, where all those "hey u moron our country is the best" talkers can exchange their points of view.

Shane is a GUY?!
My bad, didn't know. Sorry shane.
And flossy is a girl? Did not know that either.

Bites tongue REAL hard..
I think it's bleeding.......

It really is a shame there are so many that have to squelch ch.1. I understand why and am not debating that.
I'm one that gives out a when I can ref. what I think was a good fight, win, lose or draw. Lately I've tried giving out but no responces. Guess they had ch.1 squelched. Not going to bother any longer.
-
I see a few who squelch channel 1. I wish that was not an answer, as there are certainly a high number of times I log on ch 1 and stay there.
Quite frankly, there is no really good answer. People will be people. I see pilots who really get caught up in the moment and they express it.
In a perfect world, everyone would just respect each other and talk nice. It would be quite boring, but there is the other extreme, which should not be tolerated.
There is happy middle ground, and one day, maybe it will be found.

Apache, whether they are listening or not, please do not stop giving out the salutes.
We cannot hope to show new people how we would like them to participate without good examples. If all they have are bad examples, the situation will not improve.

Excellent point. You talked me into it, lol.

I .squelch 1 first thing because chan 2, 3, and 4 text rolls off too quickly if I don't.

I tried this, but got one too many back in response.
In the perfect world other people's insults would roll off like water off a Duck's back. Why put up with them if you don't have too?

Think he goes by Shane here.:rolleyes:

When I get the following replies after I kill someone, I have a standard answer.
"Nice HO"
"Nice chute killing"
"Nice spray and pray"
"Nice stick stir"
"Nice "
My reply is this: "Thanks, I have been practicing. Glad it is working."
If they can't take it, they should go play a box sim, because nobody here plays the way anyone else wants.
Other than that, I view Channel 1 as a couple things. An open mic for people to spout their views on whatever tickles their gonads. Amatuer night at the improv. An online chatroom that happens to have a flight sim attached. AH's version of WWF interviews with "Mean" Gene Okerland. A good way to talk to people that are your "friends" (I put it in quotes because many people I consider friends here I have never met, so I can't be sure that they really are my friends).

I'm good with Ch. 1 until the geopoliticaltheologicalgreenp eacehitlerwasageniousthereisn ogodanddon'tforgetthebushorclintonarebadpeoplerantings begin.
I don't login to the MA to see folks argue over that crap...we have the O'Club, which trust me, never disapoints.
-
I dunno....Channel One is awful entertaining for those long Lancaster sorties :)
Watching Shane and Whels share their secret love for one another last night was enormously entertaining....
-
Just ".squelch RaUml" and everything is fine.
-
And neither do you Rude! :D
I usually squelch it. It keeps me from laughing at little punks that think they are the toejam because they mention Hitler, etc. They never had many friends and "their parents hated them" so, now it's me against the world.
I squelch it, saves me from vomiting.
I will killer or killee.

Channel 1 was enjoyable in Beta. Now it's not.
-
I would say its been on replay since beta. just different idiots swapped in
-
You mean I don't have to suffer through channel 1?! Soon as I stop the bleeding in my eyes, I'm gonna start squeching it.
Slimm50:eek:

Actually, in Beta, it was small enough that a Zeroping AOL chat player would be bashed, or ignored off it in a hurry.
Beta Channel 1 made a small community of sorts, and also was a stage to setup great rivals which gave the game some sort of personal purpose, just as good gaming feuding should.
Now it's just a grey blur of impersonal whining, spotted with the 'annoying enough to make you .squelch xxx' some AOL chatboy.
But I havent gone as far as .squelch Channel 1... often anyway.

Macros that they say they don't use :rolleyes:

LOL—that’s an OL’ ONZ kill macro of sorts—it should be interpreted as a more like a . More than likely fired after a kill or an inside joke exchanged on Channel1.
In AW the way the kill buffer worked was that when you shot down Player1 –on your end you would see a message “A Kill Has Been Recorded” while the arena would see “Player1 Shot Down.” Many, many people in AW would fire a kill macro right after it on Channel 1.
So it would look like this:
Player1 Shot Down
Player2: You went down faster than Monica! –KILL--
Some people miss the clever little kill macros and I have seen limited attempts by some to try to resurrect it in AH!—I was never a fan and hope it never comes to AH.
:eek:

See?

:) Well it's settled now in my mind.
Every one seems to be agreement on this topic.
The choice being to listen to channel one as constant reminder of how far we've moved up in the food chain, with the benifit of giving salute's for good fights, or...
Turning off channel one and not being able to give a salute'.
Looks like turning off certain individuals is in order.
Doesn't really matter much, they like to hear themselves talk anyway :)
Wow got a few on the list without really thinking about it :D
