Your right up to the point

Post by Black Clover(O) »

that if you talk the right way (not quickly and used sparingly) you might only get silenced. I've never been silenced using this method. And yes, people do realize the * in the front, but it's still useful when showing people that you can get longer names (at a price). I asked because i know that you've made the name character limit for a reason.

You've just gotta ask if it's worth it.

Code: Select all

* Black Clover: Hey, I'm on your team, don't kill me!
Lucifer core dumps Black.
Lucifer: I won't kill you, but this character isn't grinding, and isn't talking, and if I don't kill him, I get core dumped right away.
* Black Clover: Well, run up a poll then.
Lucifer: Ok.

...

Black has been kicked from the server (reason: Wouldn't talk, wouldn't grind, kept getting his teammates core dumped).
You don't have to be a programmer to think about user interface. :)

I have no idea what your trying to say.
If you're talking about getting kicked for not talking then i still have no idea why you'd say that.

It's hard to understand, but you've just got to appreciate Luci's lame humor :wink:.

Lucifer is trying to make you understand that having a different name in chat and in the game is not going to be helpful in some situations :)

Yah, but think about it: getting silenced will not make those things happen. Unless I'm mistaken.

But your chat line will contain so many color codes that its spam value gets increased to a level where not even a single chat line passes the spam filter. The actual new implementation will not kick you, though (the old one would have), you get a couple of warnings.

Does this by any chance, mean that those rainbow colored instachats, and like 7 diff color chats, etc. wont be allowed?! =-(

You can leave out the "by any chance", it does mean precisely that.
