Saysound spamming
« on: March 23, 2013, 02:00:08 am »
I love using saysounds, I love them. I don't love them when someone spams the same one time and time again, even after people ask that it stops. It gets REALLY annoying when the guy blows you off and calls you whiny for not liking the saysounds, or tells you to use the !sounds menu to mute saysounds. It should not be our job to mute saysounds because you are being annoying with them.

^ There is the link for the demo I took of the person I am using for an example, this kinda thing really needs to stop, its not a serious issue, but its an issue.

Eh I made this a rant for a reason, I am sure I am not the only person who thinks that sound spamming gets to be quite annoying. I literally changed some of the saysounds that I found annoying to things funny/awesome so it doesn't annoy me as much if they are played, but spamming them time and time again, such as scootaloo and dosh, it just gets irritating. There is a cap on saysounds, but it feels like there needs to be a cap on players use of them, so that they can't repeat the same sound constantly, and especially not 7-8 times within a minute.

This doesn't seem to be a pressing issue to me. If you can just turn off sounds until the spammer stops/leaves, whats the issue?

Some people like trolling and spamming a saysound if you say that it sucks or something, but I guess that just feeds them to make them do it more anyways. My main issue is that when a sound is spammed pretty consistently and more then 1 person is asking them to stop and they keep doing it.

Hate to give you the news, but that's what some people do. They act like dicks. Rather than complaining about it and giving them the fire to their flame, you ignore them and move on.

oh well, this is a rant thread anyway, feels good to bitch about something, lets other people see my pain and join me. That or this was a complete waste of time, either way, rant thread.

I usually ask the spammer to stop and if they don't, I turn the sounds off. I know it gets annoying, but there isn't much we can do about it. I guess if they constantly spam every time they are in a server, we could ask the admins to suspend/revoke donator privileges for a bit. I don't think that'd go anywhere, though.
