Admin Notice: Temporary removal of the Setmsg command

[Kauket]

You guys see something you don't like and rather than have an open mind you call it stupid and complaining.
What a toxic attitude.

Your argument is invalid.

Please detrail this thread even further,

can you take your biased crap somewhere else if you think this thread is linked to what you just blurted out? It's not
and Im sick and tired to telling you people over and over about it.

heee heee heeee








#returnsetmessages

the amount of times I've seen smugglers been able to slip by because of the police not being able to type fast enough is killing me inside

That is funny considering A/) spend most of there time in Kansas or Vespucci. So how does this work ?

OK. Rookie who joined a little after this was removed giving his 2 cents.

I'm of the opinion that it should remain implemented, people who say it makes those who would use it put more effort into role playing sounds kinda stuck up.

Not every one types at super speed, some people would like to make sure that what they want to convey comes out legible which during a traffic stop (Navy or Pirate) which is hard given that the one who was stopped may bolt at a moments notice with you ether dumping your dialog that you were typing to be able to pursue them, or sit there typing in a near panic because they are now getting away, thus causing typos which in MY opinion hurt RP more, the dialog which is vital to being able to engage due to the rules of engagement see 3.6. Look, I can see where you're coming from, but I also see the fact that it's cons are so minimal compared to the pros that it's not hurting anyone other then those want to use the enemy's time typing to bolt.
I feel that something like setmessage doesn't hurt anything, so might as well leave it alone.

You saw me in New York today. I could pull screenshots of us in Delta yesterday, or the Omegas, or Bretonia, or Rheinland.

I saw "A" (1) A/) in New York earlier who left to die then come back again which was hilarious, but anyway back to topic...

Setmsgs hurt interactions as it takes less than 5 seconds to type /l1 and /l2 for a average typer. Yeah it does have it's pro's and it's con's but the con's are what matter most, yeah it's good it can store roleplay for every encounter, it's good that you can use them to engage people, yeah it's good you can just use them over and over again with no cool down period.

Maybe if there was an implementation made for them to be used after so many lines of roleplay that are not /l1 /l2 or for engagement notices then yeah I understand, but a huge count of members use the setmsgs as engagement notices, are atleast 65% - 75% of players use them as engagement notices.

If there was a way for Admins, Devs, Mods to restrict what the setmsg says then yeah maybe. I understand slow typers trust me I do, alot of my family are like that and alot of them have played Freelancer, they couldn't type fast enough for pirates demands so they died and it was sad that pvp players used such things against the slow typers.

It's funny you say it like that, because you talk like I don't know or CR| don't know that silent traders are a pain especially without setmsgs, do alot of players forget Coronado had Baffin and Cortez JH only 15k from Barrier Gate Station, alot of traders would silently be on there way making it annoying for CR| players to try get decent roleplay. Someones we had to use /l setmsgs to get the ships to stop. It was annoying.

So I know both sides of the story.

Quickly though, let's stop the personal assaults, attacks, debates, but let's actually stay on topic... and give constructive responses which will help the Admins decide weather to keep them removed or add them back in...

I personally disagree with adding them back in unless especially rules were made around using them with some form of cool down period between each set message being used. Making it impossible to /l1 and /l2 within 5 sections, as there is a rule hidden or unwritten about engagement notices have to be after 10 seconds of roleplay or it could be classed as pvp abuse. So maybe if they were made 10 seconds for a cool down period and engagement notices were not allowed via setmsgs then I can see it being okay.

Remind me to open this thread on the 14th, maybe.
