Hi all!!!

Since this is my first post I gonna begin by first telling u that ure server is very fun and nice to play on.

Well but on the other hand I got some things I wanna complain about...

I got this "LOL" wich occupies all lines in the chat window, I got a reprimand from an admin telling me not to spam.
I was fine with that and we had a chat about it - resulting in that I could use it further on if funny events came up. (occationally)

Hmm..then I played today and got kicked for spamming when me and another player had a thing going on. well I didn´t se him warning me though, (was kinda busy finding a head) but I was kicked.

Then I got the advise to read the serverrules - And guess what I found:

"Some people somehow find it necessary to try to fill your screen with babble, sometimes even paired with the audio taunts ('Oh yeah' 'Boom'). Those people will get kicked for obnoxious behaviour. If the server is busy (20+ players) messages sometimes scroll really quickly so it is OK to send your message a -few- times. Dont overdo it."

reading this I cant understand why admins kick ppl without getting some respond first!!??How are we suppose to se a single row of warning when u have seen the chat window scroll..COME ON!!? OR...kicking ppl because flooding the chat window, explaining that we ruin log files...LOL....log files for what? bed time reading? cut N paste...cut N paste...

well I hope I didnt over do it...

you may complain about it but i also told you while we had that chat
that it would be okay to use it sometimes -for me!
+ i told you you may get problems with your keybinds again!
now we have following situation :u using your keybind
lt.cmd.starbuck aka OTC-Sir Twist using his lol-spammings
+another one spamming too same time !
guess what we get?
bullshit!!!!
we know you mr-guys love your keybinds but same to dmc-guys and otc's and a lot of other ppl
so how could any agreement look like if each player is only watching
himself ?
i would say no way!
90 % of our regulars dont need to spam to have fun
so what is the point?

Well we have multiple admins that don't know who acted on who and so its possible that you get different admins punishing you for the same thing afterwards.. such is life..

Basically I can only speak for myself and I near always tolerate people saying

Username: How are you doing -nickname- nice to see you
Username: How are you doing -nickname- nice to see you

or saying stuff once, and saying it again after a minute if there is no reaction..

But indeed I get more annoyed by the full-screen LOL things etc. But I can tolerate it if people do it once every 6 minutes.

Some people find something funny every 10 seconds and that is annoying. Basically I would like the chatbox 'clean' and I keep track of what people say. I know its 'handicapped' but I like the 'chat' to be that.. a place where you can walk around and chat at the same time, so I dont want people polluting the chat box with their own ego's Wink

(no offense)

So just keep it down, yes? Wink

And thanks for playing!

My call is simply use the big LOL if you really really REALLY fall off the chair laughing and are just able to hit the 'lol' key before you fall down and have to get medical care. I.e. use it like max. once every game Smile

Yep I agree. I find it really annoying when all you can see is a big lol.
Once or twice..ok, but when its over and over? and bear in mind its not just you Cleaner, but a few people doing it.
I would consider it spamming or flooding and you would be asked to stop then kicked if you didnt.

I accomplish the exact same thing with a small LOL.

The reason I see a big .txt file like the above as spam is because you are essentially just in need of attention, and you want everyone in the game to know how damn funny something was. When in all reality, only you and the person some event happened to knows the situation. So there are maybe 2 or 3 people who find the event worth a LOL. The rest of the people have no clue what happened. So why broadcast your big LOL, 3/4 lines of text, its for your own enjoyment? You know it was funny,other person knows it was funny, this can be accomplished with a one line text saying LOL, or haha, or whatever.

I consider Spam, 3-4 lines of something over and over........ and guess what a big LOL is? you saying LOL 3 -4 times.

simple huh?
