Auto ignore extra...."outspoken" players

Post by AAFitz »

<Subject>:

Have a list of players who like to mix it up with extreme vulgarity, abusive language, trash talk...etc.


<Body>:

* Suggestion Idea: Have a list of the players who enjoy having a blast without restraint that can be viewed (or not viewed) and auto ignored by any player

* Specifics: Have a list of players that have either proven their inability to show restraint, or voluntarily add their names to the list. Players on the list can be summarily ignored with one click of the button. This gives the people who never want to encounter such people that option, and it cuts down on the number of complaints an overly aggressive player might get.


* Why it is needed:The idea is that because some players want to say whatever they want, and others cant bear to read any of it, they can voluntarily avoid each other without ever having a conflict in the first place
Now granted, there are some players that enjoy instigating with people who dont enjoy it, but most that go nuts, would gladly just play people who can take it. It wouldnt necessarily avoid all confrontations, but would separate the two extremes of people on the site, quickly and effeciently eliminating many abusive claims, confrontations...etc.

It also gives parents an option for their kids to at least shield them from some of the habitual colorful players


* Priority** (1):



**Note**
this is hardly a polished idea, but it seems to me, it could eliminate a good amount of confrontations...possibly

myself, I wouldnt use it, Im guessing it would be more for people just looking for a nice peaceful game without having some 16 year old tell you to put your whatnot in your whippdi do and shake it till silly stuff shoots out of your wankyspots...

It would benefit the players who enjoyed this also, because they would possibly get far less complaints...

or just ignore them? and i agree, could you ban the word dice or any suggestion of them in game chat :lol: im fed up with people blaming the dice, and especially complaining the dice are not random. i personally find the dice very random and seem to get far far worse rolls in real life so i aint gonna complain :lol:

Major flaw

I might swear in a game with my friends or with people who I know quite well off the site but In other games I wouldn't because there might be a child whos 5 in the room

Very true, but Im pretty sure he keeps his rants in the forum. Im talking about players who go off on players in a game....and probably dont realize the other player is just a young kid, or the mother of 3, or midwesterner... :wink:

and im not suggesting everyone would use it...not at all...

its a preemptive ignore button....available essentially only for the two extremes of players....

again its not a polished idea...just something that would save a few of the abusive complaints from ever happening...

and max....you obviously wouldnt be on the list...nor would most....its for the players who want to occasionally go off...on the dice or whatever....and the players who will complain everytime they do....

everyone in the middle will for the most part be unaffected...

the other idea...which would be far more work, would be to have a kiddie area...where no foul language was acceptable...just a buffer for those who cant handle it...

I can only imagine the number of people who get turned off from the site because of such things...giving them a way to play without being exposed to the more colorful exchanges, just seems to me would keep a few more players around...

and again...I dont care about the chat...if I dont like what they have to say...i just kill them...easy enough... I even assasinated dug in the early days after one of his notorious threats/play suggestions...

i actually like this too....kind of like team chat....set it up in your settings...if its on you can see the rants...if its off you cant...

little messy though I imagine...its essentially a seperate chat window
