Muting ammo requests

Hi,

I would like to be able to mute a player in game, and have that mute also effect their ammo and med requests, as it seems it have become customary to spam med and ammo requests until i take my headphones off, and play in silence.

This should also disable centreing on them when one presses space.

I would also love a device to enable me to reach through their moniter and punch them in the ######, but one thing at at time.

    Maybe limit it more, so it can't be troll spammed, muting it all together seems excessive.

    Perhaps make it more of a pinching device, starts out as a small pinch the that gradually increases with each following pinch, also make it so it can't be spammed, maybe allow once per minute. Also include a message with it for the reason.

    I'd rather just have an option to be auto-alerted like the auto-call in TF2 for medic. Maybe like 1 clip of primary left, or less than 90 health and 0 armor as defaults. Something like that would be nice. Would be nice to have auto-alert for players evolving into higher lifeforms for enzyme clouds as well.

    Because we totally didn't have that a few builds ago leading to stupid spam when people don't actually need it

    In tf2 you can turn it off or on unlike that beta build where it was forced on and couldn't be disabled

    cool story, have you ever tried not being arrogant commander so people don't feel urge to annoy you in anyway possible ? might help.

    edit : but you're right, having mute button for ammo / health requests wouldn't hurt ofcourse, afterall, marine's have option to mute annoying commanders so it's only fair.

    The most annoying spams come from people who have armories nearby...

    Sometimes (well, many times) I press Q by accident, like, when I want to switch weapons (those old habits).

    And auto request is definitely a bad thing. When I do rambo runs, I don't want any tres wasted on me. If I succeed, good. I don't, well, at least we lost nothing.

    There's nothing wrong with an auto request you can disable or enable and modify as well as you can modify TF2's auto request.

    there was a USB-connected nerf S.C.U.D. launcher mentioned on the Reg once. the tricky part would be to sneak in to their house and set it up...
