Author Topic: Server Blacklist-Not what you are thinking. Along with server categories.  (Read 1153 times)

This blocks off the titles of servers you don't like, or don't want to see.
I think this would be pretty useful and it would probably make it faster.

Another thing that would be good are server categories, where the host can put down something that would refine searches faster, such as-

RP
Family
War
Army
TDM
DM
Freebuild
Fortwars
etc...

Absolutely yes. It could omit servers from a query based on the host's BL_IDs or something.

I think it would do very well for some...

No, because then forgets like this guy will never join servers because of the host's ID even if it's a great one.

You do realize that this is your and whoever else's definition of "great", right?

It has nothing to do with ID discrimination, it's simply meant this way so that certain people's servers are blacklisted from the client's search query

So if I don't like BLID 2143 I can add him to the list and not see his server?

Oh, well I'm very sorry for what I said.

i didn't give any definition and i don't know how you got one out of my words...

That's exactly what I was thinking though.

The join server screen could indeed use some refinement. It was working great back in the day, but we have lots of servers to choose from and it would be nice if we could narrow down the selection to fit our liking by one or more criteria. Oh, and it would be nice if we could see the server-previews in-game.

Would be nice if you could search by keywords or player name/bl-id.  I'm sure it would be better for the younger players if the titles could also have curse-word filtering


Bump.
Seriously, this is a good idea.

no it censors out servers that have keywords in them, like if you don't want to go to an rp server you put rp into the blacklister and any server name that has the words "rp" in it doesn't show up on the list

Naw, it's the opposite of Server Favorites.
