A ban mute? --- End quote --- --- Quote from: Pulchritude on April 25, 2011, 10:02:48 PM ----How can you censor the chat? You'll have to ban or mute the guy spewing a gratuitous excess of cusses -How are we to drama people? Will we have to record them, and have Badspot add a feature to the forums whereby you can add audio to a post? Do we have a chat recording ability so we are able to do so? We might not be able to hear them over other people. -How are we to censor it for the soccer-moms who are afraid of their little darling child hearing someone say something inappropriate? -Will there be a mic sent to you when you buy Blockland, and will those who have one already need to drive to Badspot's house to get them? Will there be a Blockland approved mic, or will everyone buy their own? -What happens when there are thirty or more players, all trying to get heard by screaming? Even fifteen people is chaos. -How are we to tell which voice belongs to who in a server with thirty players? You can't remember what everyone sounds like. -Suppose the server lags. Instead of idiots typing "LLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!" You'll hear idiots screaming it. -Consider the problem of team chat for deathmatches and voice commands and chat-related events and mods. -Consider the problems for IRC. -Consider the fact that there's both music and miscellaneous sounds on Blockland. If you're next to a brick playing loud music, will you have to shout to be heard over it? What about in a DM with thirty players, with bullet sounds coming from every direction? -Consider the fact that adding a mute feature won't loving fix everything. Over fifty prepubescent forgets all screaming conveniently into your ear. --- End quote --- Fix this stuff with a goddamn mute button |

If the HOST/ADMIN has an option to force everyone to MUTE, the screaming, and music playing, would STOP. |

You can record audio with Fraps / X-Fire and upload it to a media-website such as X-Fire or Youtube. -How are we to censor it for the soccer-moms who are afraid of their little darling child hearing someone say something inappropriate?

Will there be a Blockland approved mic, or will everyone buy their own? No, mow some lawns and buy a mic. -What happens when there are thirty or more players, all trying to get heard by screaming? Even fifteen people is chaos. Local Chat Radius. -How are we to tell which voice belongs to who in a server with thirty players? You can't remember what everyone sounds like. Voice tags appear on the screen. -Suppose there's an argument. Do you ban two people just debating worthless bullstuff, or do you mute them? It's up to the admin. -Suppose someone has a cold and is coughing/sneezing constantly. You won't be able to hear anyone over them, so you'll have to mute them, won't you?

But it will, you just don't seem to see that. --- End quote --- By the way, Voice Chat should be optional, and clients should be able to mute people client-sided. |
