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.

I don't use a mic and I get along fine. Been on the servers for 1yr and 5mon. The zombie mod admins are a little more free with slapping/slaying at the end of a map, so I know what you're saying. Even though you shouldn't have to, there really is no harm in simply scrolling up? Or looking through console.....If it's simply at the end of the map I don't think it would be a problem, it's all in good humor, plus the map change would interrupt your converstaion anyway....and hiding admin commands in console make it more difficult to tell if an admin's abusing.....So, as suggested, use steam chat, buy a mic, or bear with it. It isn't a large problem and it's a source of amusement for regulars, so I say let things be
IBIS
well I say all this as someone who reads the chat non stop, and pretty much never uses mic... unless he reads at like a 2'nd grade level I don't understand what his issue is....
and yes, making it harder 2 catch admin abusers is counter productive.
apparently I can, as ive never once had this issue you're going on about
there ya go.

If you're too poor to afford a mic (which is probably the case) i can send you an old one of mine. I also have some extra canned goods that i can send sound Christmas time to stem the suicidal thoughts.

See, the problem was never like this in the past, there was never an excess of slapping at the end of every round. When it is done occasionally that is fine, but it is getting out of hand. There is no need to do it every single round, and that is the point all of you seem to be missing.
maynard, no one can read a sentence in less than a second, while it's moving, especially when it disappears completely during that fraction of a second. reading level has nothing to do with it.
How about admins just stop doing it so often, there is no need for it. And if I am talking with someone because I died early, and they did too, and then the round ends all of a sudden, since the admins have slap on a bind, if I am typing something, or the person I am talking to is typing something, our message will be lost if the slapping starts as soon as the round ends, which is what always happens due to the binds. So disflux tells me to wait until the next round starts, but if the person I am talking to posts his message, then the slapping starts right away, you're telling me I should go into console during the next round to see what they said? I don't fucking think so, and if that happens to a message I write, which it does a lot, I am expected to rewrite it at the start of the next round? Again, I don't fucking think so. Don't spam admin commands that spam the chat.
Oh and what's his face, dudeee or what ever, he has actually spammed slap during a round, on himself, but none of the other admins online at the time told him to stop, they just wondered what he was doing. He wasn't shooting anyone, just slapping himself.

the hell are you talking about, your msg is never lost... it's called console, you know that huge log that shows all the chat? push 1 button and it opens.
like I said, there's a reason you're the first and only person 2 have this issue, every 1 else manages just fine cause they know how 2 use the console.. maybe you don't have yours turned on, I don't know....

do poor people have access to console too? no wonder it's always so dirty...
