Why do we have 200 ?

[Leisure]

yes.   .s <playername>  sends a salute that he (and everyone else) sees.

you can instantly return a salute with .rs (no name needed) that everyone will see... or you can use the  .s <playername>

Thanks, it's good to know people not tuned to a specific channel can still see kudos sent their way.

It can be a whinefest sometimes, but I like to talk to people on the other side sometimes and we can’t PM any more for some reason.

YOU CAN'T PM ANYMORE!?!?!

Damn, I've been gone for a while, but I didn't think that this game changed that much. Why in God's Green world did the PM get deleted?

Its to have competitions on who has the biggest e-penor

Only cross-country PMs and that was years and years ago.  Same side PMs still work, even across arenas.

we have 200 so shane can have something to post  .

Seems like the better move would’ve been to remove pm privs from people who cannot be trusted to be normal humans but not my call. It’s a shame, I liked talking about fights with people without it seeming like a “look at me” post on 200.

Yes but sometimes you shoot someone down and then got a stream of insults from them 

Some people have thin skins.

And here you are on my ankle, lofl.   

It sounds like Shane is Shane. Since 200 is opt in no problem then. I am not going to tune in but I think its fun for people like that sort of thing 

Is there a text squelch for those who don't like being poked ?

all kinds of squelch!!! well, two basically.

dot command typed in text buffer: .squelch <playername>  (text)

And we have 2, yes 2!!! clicky click squelch options from roster on <playername>   squelch text and squelch voice

See how easy it is to click squelch player text/voice as it is to click .rpt? Easy as pie!  Annoyance vs offensive, innit? 

[Shuffler]

The .s and the .rs do pass the restriction of the "ALL" channel so they are seen.

HTC turned off the "all channel" because  tuning 200 means you are willing to take the crap that sometimes flows there. You have voluntarily tuned in, the "all channel" was forced on you.

200 isnt all that bad, but a few apples ruin the fun, like any time Shane is on. 

Indeed......

Pick any .2xx channel, get all those cross-country friends there and have fun. Call it your crew channel or whatev...

Cross-country PM's were removed because there were some people who were being egregiously foul and abusive via PM.  It's a shame.  There were times I liked to give more than just a <S> to an opposing player, or apologize for being a lousy opponent.  But a handful of jerks ruined it for everyone else.

Tuesday is usually nice and quiet as I forget to change back to 200 from being on 223 for Monday night madness..

200 is wonderful.  The cross-country comms and vox make the game more social.

I like telling gp5 he's the fightingest guy in the game after he turns into a 1v4 on the deck and kills 'em all.  Or have Humboldt make fun of me for not checking 12 and augering.  I've known 1ijac and Oysters for years (decades?).

I find it off-putting that grownups cannot ignore the children and socialize cross-country. 

Don't feed the trolls.  When ignored, they go play Rock n' Roll Racing with cheat codes or something to prove their magnificence.
