MrTouchdown Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 What are you suggesting? - have a chat feauture allowing an open comms that is in RP How would this change better the server? - we have no formal way of using open comms other than adverting and then puting [OPEN] in front of the sentence it would also make adverts stand out even more suuch as Hands up/Partial for Gensec, Self breaches, and raids/thermals. it could also help limit meta gaming by secluding certain people who can see the comms. Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain. - it would require some coding but i think its possible Who would this change mostly benefit? - MTF, CI, Research/RnD (for mass testing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) Oh we had that, there was just a flaw to this. People would raid the server by spamming racial slurs into that comms, and even muting or gaging the person would not work. It was too much to manage, so it was removed. The system was similar to that of imperial rp, I believe. Everyone had access to that comms. Edited December 23, 2020 by Hope osu! achiever?

Squash Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 -Support I'd prefer not to have people screaming over open comms, however it was extremely hilarious at times I will admit that. Just is way too mingey in my opinion when it was a thing.

Sparkle Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I think we removed the previous open comms because of rule breakers abusing and bypassing mutes to continue their spam. And we did nip the open comms thing in the bud. I don't want that issue to prop up again. -Support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief_ Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I would say +support. The reason why I am saying this is becuase that we already have a comms addon. What we could do is create a /comms that is /open. Which every job (Besides scp's/d-class) have access to. So that will prevent the raiders from being able to spam in the /open comms constantly. It would also prevent d-class from metagaming/failrping by looking at those comms to try and figure out what was going on.

Yato Sensei Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 - Support Adverts already provide a good visual whenever there is talk in open comms as the text is in bright yellow. Also old open comms was a bit... chaotic.
