It will identify the spawn/runway campers/vulchers and the too often lemming that repeatedly launch into the camp.
This could be interesting to watch. :joystick:

yes being able to turn it off works for me as well, although it doesnt seem like thats possible

Mouse over text window/ right click all tab/ select edit settings. / Uncheck system messages.

Also if you wish you can create a new tab that then has only the system messages. And then if you wish drag the new tab out to make it's own window.

Most old-time players find having the text buffer flooded with formation of no reverence to them very annoying. It makes it more difficult to communicate with teammates, for one thing. More importantly, however, one cannot turn it off without losing other messages that actually mean something, such as DT command data and what damage (if any) you have done to an enemy town or base. Can this pretty-please be tweaked so that, if you turn off the "who killed whom" messages, that's all that goes away?

Disable it for gvs.. one or two spawn camps ruins the buffer.

Unfortunately, that is gv play these days.

Hitech literally told you how to kill it if you didn't like and and how to manage it so it doesn't interfere with player to player text.

and yet, the debate goes on... .

Completely simple to do and takes 30 seconds, then all the adrenaline slowly leaves after hyperventilating about it.
