maybe you should purchase a mic

also

) Just typing a bunch of stuff to spam the chat

doesn't count towards this as it's not being typed, it's SM saying the command that was used.

they have to type the command, or type the button in the bind, its typing either way, and i dont have to buy a mic i am perfectly capable of typing, way to address the issue by completely ignoring it, admins spamming the text area so players that dont use mics cannot chat, ya, that seems against the rules to me. maybe im missing something, are admins allowed to spam like that? are admins actually above the rules?

it is mostly newer admins, and really, the new admins dont need more than mute/kick/ban, obviously they are going to play around with their new powers, but there is no reason to do it every time they are on, every map, every round. like i said, ill get demos, it wont be hard unless they actually stop because of this thread, it happens every time certain admins are on.

people want me to stop bitching, then stop being fucking stupid.

lol.... there's a reason you're the only person having this communication issue, once again, buy a mic

admins slapping people around at the end of GG rounds has always gone on... it's nothing new, nor does it mess with the game or the persons score in anyway, so it's not an issue.

I am an admin, and I normally never use a mic. I've only used a mic twice in the past 6+ months that I've been playing on Ibis. The only times that admins, according to you, "spam" chat is either at the end of a round or at the end of the map. Either way, guess what I do? I patiently wait until the next round to express whatever opinion I may have in my head. Why are you so pissed off because you can't wait for 5 seconds for the next round to start or for the map to change? Personally, when I"m having a conversation with another person or a group of people I don't stand with them in a tiny room filled with 15+ other people. If you want to have a conversation with someone, add them on Steam, and then talk to them via steam chat. If you want to have "social interaction" with a group of people. Get out. Or blog. Or go on forums. Don't go on a CSS server to PLAY A GAME and then complain on our forums because you can't have a private conversation with another person in a public area.

There may be a way to get it so the slap message only shows in console or something. I will need to look into the configuration options.

[maynard]

the only issue with that is no 1 else can then see people casting slap. someone could be abusing slap in an actual abuse sense, and you wouldn't even know it till the person freaked out....

I think given he's the only person 2 EVER complain about this, he should just buck up.

who cares. if you must use text chat for convos in-game, maybe it's better to use steam chat.
