Executive Boss 319 Posted August 6 Executive Share Posted August 6 As the title states, should we remove OOC chat in-game? Feel free to leave an opinion down below. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoshGrovesMusic 0 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 +1 yes it is used for powergaming and people just whine and cry in it instead of /report Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muds 7 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I feel removing it may be a little too much. But perhaps, if it is possible, a slow mode for ooc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rock 5 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 +1 Everyone uses /ooc incorrectly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CubixNZ 31 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) +1 would like to see OOC be removed in-game but perhaps relocated elsewhere such as a discord channel or introduce a way to toggle twt, ads, ooc? Don't toggle staff announcements so people can still see when they're being summoned by the lords. If OOC were kept in-game have a slow mode over say 30s - 1 minute per new message?

pinejack 11 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I think it's a good thing to keep around because it allows people who are unsure of something to ask ingame instead of having to go to either discord or TS. An example would be a newer player asking what key to do something that might not be obvious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big Sauce 0 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) people that use it for genuine questions tho? And people will start using twitter as OOC Edited August 6 by Big Sauce Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kraze 62 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) I think OOC should be removed. Whilst sometimes it can be used for good, such as a new player asking questions, it seems that the majority of the messages coming through are either complaining, beefing, or players using OOC where twitter should be used. Questions and similar appropriate messages can take place in discord. It clutters the HUD, with chat updating constantly because of it. Really no need for it beyond adding the slightest convenience of not needing to ALT + TAB to send a message. Edited August 6 by Kraze 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
worthy 2 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 -1 If you don't like it don't read it.. Maybe be more strict on people using ooc for unnecessary shit 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
duqz 24 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Remove it and have a hotkey to show the guide so people dont have to ask ooc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dream 13 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 -1 Just be more harsh on people not using ooc correctly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chow Lee 30 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 +1 Remove it people are abusing it, spamming etc, if they have a problem /report it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tawtis 9 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) I get the idea, but I think it would be more suitable to possibly have some more rules put out against it? Maybe only for stuff that is super relevant to what they're doing? We just need to stop people from whining in it instead of going to HD. Edit: -1 from me Edited August 6 by Tawtis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mystimate 39 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I feel like it might be easier to restrict it or improve upon the act of having the option to toggle ooc chat. +1 overall. There is way to much bullshittery in ooc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dawson 27 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 remove it for non staff, make sure staff only use it for appropriate things Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Logan M 12 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 -1 It's easy and convenient for people who have been around a long time to not want ooc anymore, but for players in their first week ooc is needed for quick solutions on genuine questions, having to go to TS or dischord just for something basic like flipping your car/transferring ect will be very discouraging and frustrating for new players, ooc is often used for players to help other players so admins don't have to waste their time, a slow mode or punishment for not using ooc correctly like suggested above seems like a much more suitable option 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ragnar43 13 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 100 agree to remove it for non staff, keep it for staff use only Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ketzo 17 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Leaning more towards a no. Yes, OOC can feel like you might catch a disease from it but it is often used for actual questions that need answers which might not be at the level for a HD visit but urgent/important enough that it is ideal to have it answered sooner rather than later. Yes, discord exists, but genuine questions on things can sometimes take ages to be answered, which isn't the end of the world but that's when OOC in-game can help, especially to help give new players an understanding even after reading the rules. Just immediately mute those actually using OOC incorrectly and move on, because there is just as much nonsense in Twitter as well and those who use OOC incorrectly will just move to twitter at which stage you are back to square one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kraqed 12 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) In regards to twitter, Should add a twitter app on the phone If possible. It would be alot better imo rather than seeing it on the persons hud and more immersive rp Edited August 6 by cup Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LiZi606 44 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 (edited) Maybe change OOC to a question channel? As far I’m seeing the OOC channel is full with questions. and arguments... or maybe add a slowmode like discord Edited August 6 by LiZi606 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
