Unlimited Voice Command Usage
« on: August 13, 2016, 07:59:49 PM »
Just a random idea. Topic has been brought up in the past, but I wish to see the updated views on this topic.

It wouldn't have to stay permanently. If a lot of people don't like it, we don't need it.

I've had a lot of fun on servers with this feature.

I vote no, unless it has a vote for each use. Some people will have their sound up, so doing it without warning or warning through the use of csay/chat doesn't give people enough time to adjust their sound. In addition constantly making someone adjust their sound may annoy him/her. Overall it should be limited, athough it begs the question... why do administrators need this power in the first place? Sounds hold no ability to punish a player unless you are spamming them with it, even then they could just disconnect or mute their sound and just lay back in their chair without a care.

So my additional question is: why do administrators have access to this?

Like saying "MEDIC!" without a cooldown. Basically, you can spam it and cut into the voice line.

I vote yes, mainly because it's hilarious and because you can't go wrong with it.

Though I will admit it is a fun feature, my vote will be a no. Mainly because some players will be annoyed by the constant spam of sounds, especially those wearing headphones. But like you mentioned, if this gets added, we don't have to keep it if too many players don't like it.

Every time a person uses a sound, I always put up a csay telling them they can disable it if they don't like it.
I myself have turned off saysounds and personally I don't care too much about them.
However i do see how it could be annoying.
I'm voting to be neutral on this.
Go on then. You Pompous F***

I love spamming it, though I can only do that when no one else is using their voice commands. I'll be neutral on this since I do see the good and bad to this.

I do find this a fun idea. First of all, you can produce funny little skits or ear joys when you can do that. I don't see anything wrong with it at all. As long as wel can disable it coming up in chat, Im up for it o3o

I believe there is a mod that disables it appearing in chat. IF it isn't blocked, we are gonna have a FUN HELL to deal with. X3

BUt yes, I agree!

Sounds fun, but the chat box (Voice) messages may get a little annoying.
