Ok. Ive been holding this back for a while, but now im just pissed off.

Every now and then there are people joining the game, that has their MICs And VoiceBroadcast on, but not using it for actual conversations.

And so there are echoes of theit sound systems, voices of their friends, uncommon and strange noises are coming throu, sometimes even at ridiculously loud volumes that may tear your ears down.


Some of them switch their mics/VB off after being told about it. But most of them dont.

Some people are so ignorant that they refuse to turn their mics/VB off, or even dont respond in any way at all.


Of course you can MUTE them, but afaik their broadcast still ocupy traffic, thus increasing lag for all players (not to mention ear damage).

So here i suggest a discussion about how to deal with IgnorantNoiseBroadcasters (INB), or/and maby a list of them the same way it was done to Untrustworthy Weapon Traders.

Chances are if they refuse to fix the problem, they are probably an asshat anyways, so just kick them. ALWAYS host, it makes online more enjoyable.   Uberorb Bio melt  


I'm going to have to agree with Uberorb. Since communication in online play is key to success and people not getting pissed off, having someone who is broadcasting loud/obnoxious noises, not contributing to any conversation, ignoring requests, and otherwise annoying and lagging up other players, isn't worth keeping around. If they're not respond to you, kick, kick, kick. Diakonov007 15:01, August 21, 2010 (UTC)Diakonov007


Random mic spammers, intentional or not, have no place in this game. Kick them if they don't to fix the problem. They probably won't be fun to play the game with anyways if the mic is any indication.  Dr Hax headshot  Skeve613ask Dr. Hax  15:38, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
