As always I expect common sense in the first place.
If this fails, we have to check from case to case.
In that case it failed and turned into a mess.
@Kruzenschtern insulted another player instantly with “shut up” even though it was the daily common “russian in global chat” joke.
The discussion war happened afterwards is unacceptable.
Some guidelines and info:
- The Discord <> Ingame Chat integration is now only available for HWS Elite & HWS Meta Patrons.
- If you are ingame, you have to use the ingame chat! I see too often players ingame and using Discord to make their chat “special” over others -> abuse.
- Quick notes, quick help is fine. I consider HWS Elite and HWS Meta as loyal and “old” HWS players. Similar to the HWS Helper role.
The chat feature should not be abused for general chat, because - The API we have currently does not allow to split the incoming and outgoing chat into global chat and faction chat. @Jascha only have one way he can broadcast the chat and that is in global AND faction chat. A very bad limitation we have to live with it for now.
- That way some player don’t get irritated by “Server:” messages and think someone impersonates us.
