The New Chat Restriction in The Feast

[loreleidiangelo]

From what I could piece together, while they didn't mention it, the community certainly didn't let it go unmentioned at all.

Also it ended after only an hour and a half. Turns out the Feast really isn't fun with the chat restriction and trying to PvP with/against an angry community that got ignored for so long wasn't much fun either.

I thought they were supposed to be doing Frontlines though? Did that change?

Ouch, not a good decision in a PVP team based game imo.

Don't worry, they will lift the chat restriction when the garo event is over. That's my guess. Look forward to it?

So...sometime halfway through 4.0?

I'm not sure if that's a soothing prospect for the people here.

If it was SE being proven right then I say ban chat in raids. People are as toxic in raids as you can say they are in PVP but lets ban the underdog content while SE's star pupil stuff gets held to high heaven on a golden platter.

Wrong, PvE is more toxic, so how come all chat is not removed?

It was a lot of people proving SE right.

How was SE proven right? It's not as if there was mass flaming/insults said in either twitch chat or in-game. The only response they gave in regard to chat ban was a link to this thread claiming they appropriately addressed the problem then ignored everything else. If you're referring to deleted measages on the twitch it's more likely due to "Long" messages because people were trying to be heard through a slow down mode that forced you to wait 90-120s just to talk again. People saying "Unable to use chat" is about as "toxic" as chat got, and it wasn't even toxic lmao. I doubt the reps even understood the meme.

Pretty sure the person you quoted is just there to provoke arguments. They addressed me before without real point while not addressing my real point before while being provoking like the post you are quoting. No idea what Moonlite's goal is in acting like that but, I given up at this point.

When people are mad for so long with no outlet of course they are going to riot. It is just human nature, no one is proving anyone right. Them not seeing it coming is the more interesting part. The Community Managers are not to blame, but they are literally the only outlet between the NA players and the devs. Maybe the outrage is a bit more understood now that the biggest PvP datacenter in NA showed their frustration.

Snip

Oh I'm positive they are. There is another person on these PvP threads that go out of their way to contradict logic with theory and no evidence.

[Moonlite]

The twitch and Balmung was spammed with nice job and unable to use chat. Other people were going out of their way to make sure they died repeatedly. That was all we could see, we could not even see the in game chat they saw. They ran a little of frontlines and feast. Also some of the more bent out of shape PvPers were using the stream to try to chase them into matches. Lucky for them they pop almost instant and randomly. Unlucky for them they are not very good at some basic Frontlines system, (like don't mount and try to run through 8 players).

Kuso no spoiled people fail to see what is in front of them. And to AMA you and I fundamentally disagree about vote kick. I think a bunch of stuff I can't type. Because I have the personal restraint not to type stuff in chat that would cause problems. You refuse to see one has a tool if it is good or bad and one does not. No amount of "oh people get together and vote together", changes that is the way it is suppose to work. So no continued response to you is necessary, you will never agree one has an option and one does not. So we have no where forward to move.
