... which is global-only, completely undocumented and does not appear to have an off-switch other than muting your sound. This just gets better and better, doesn't it?

For those who don't check the old forums regularly, here's the link. And Voxel1ty? Trying to convince people they have schizophrenia is bad and you should feel bad, even if they're cunts. Green_tongue

Look, all I did was ask him what the voices were telling him, which I think is a perfectly reasonable question for someone who tells you they're hearing voices. :P

Then I asked, what he expected us to do since he had no video proof and it could just have as easily been a video playing from an open browser window. Ask tech support about it.

I mean, what would you tell me if I found an Easter Egg of a flying pink elephant in-game but I didn't have screenshots and I couldn't tell you how to replicate it?

So, sure the OP was right apparently but just saying. There still appears to be little information about it and it seems like it only functions erratically/buggy so it would still be nice to hear tech support weigh in on this "feature".

I'm really looking forward to the cod kiddies yelling. You could just imagine.
CaWaDoOtYkId kills someone: That's right noob f-g!
CaWaDoOtYkId gets killed: F-ck you hacker f-g!
CaWaDoOtYkId gets mad: You're all F-cking N-gga F-ggots!

Yeah, that's pretty much what text chat is like in most games as it is.

Only if listening to squeaky-voiced newbies shout profanity and threats at you for having the temerity to be better at the game than they are is your idea of a good time. I'd find it very useful and game-enhancing indeed on a server where high standards of civilised behaviour were rigorously and consistently enforced (ie making homophobic or racist remarks is ban-worthy and there are admins around to enforce this most of the time), but we've always struggled with that in AoS; the only really civilised English-language servers were the now-defunct Goon Haven and Sham's Little Pony, which is sadly diminished these days.

If you guys want to be trolls with children in AoS in Spring, pretend to be the Easter Bunny and tell the kid that they are not getting candy.

No way man. That is way too harsh. You could definitely do some major damage telling kids that sort of stuff.

Well they shouldn't be playing if they're younger than 13.
