Chat commands in chat?
« on: April 21, 2010, 02:04:59 PM »
I don't know if there is a setting in some file to make chat commands not show up in chat? But if there isn't that would be nice. So players don't see a bunch of commands crowding the chat box.

If you want silent commands, use your game console.
Not only does it autocomplete, usually making it quicker than typing in chat (especially if targeting players with special symbols), it won't echo the command you used in chat.

Sleep? Please define.
Just kidding.
According to my stats page, it would seem I post less between 1am and 6am.

There are some other oddball statistics there too... the graph shows me most active at 3pm my time...which is odd, there's only two days a week I could post at that time, not counting sick days... work blocks the forums (EEK!)

I do agree with the top few 'most active' percentage ones though... FAQs, Developer's corner...yeah, some of my faves...though...Trash rates slightly above Releases and General Help and Support....that, that, that just isn't right.

Megiddo. Feed me.
Besides, pshaw, running...you're head zombie around here.

Rather then make my own thread about this, I'll bump this one.

I use chat commands because I personally find it quicker and easier, the problem is everyone can read what commands I'm doing, I suggest a flag such as "canseechatcon", where the groups and the groups that inherit from those groups, would be able to see chat commands, while the others would not.

I've had several people ask me for this lately, so it's going to be something I'll add sometime shortly.
