<div class="IPBDescription">Love the game. Hate the community.</div> Except you guys of course <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
What I'm talking about is all the lame, trash taking, taunting opposing team members of a pub game. They completely RUIN this game for me! After every F-ing kill they have to type "HAHA'. WTH is that? Ever heard of good sportsmanship?! You win some, you lose some. Do I type "HAHA' after every kill?? No. It gets tired, FAST.
Anyways, I'm looking for a way to disable ALLCHAT. Or specifially, a way to mute the opposite team.

If you are talking about the typed stuff then I dont know jsut play on different servers.
And the 'tab' button only works for your teamates.
Or, if you want to make it stay on screen a shorter amount of time..
hud_saytext_time 2 (where 2 is the number of seconds it will stay on screen)
But I've already mentally banned myself from 2 servers, whose names I will remain anonymous or not if you really want to know. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Nothing is better than taunting those skulks (who had bitten you to arse just moments ago) to leave the server by saying such meaningless lines. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Oh, thats a great idea! I almost forgot about cheating death!
LOL, it can't be that bad just ignore them...
i personally haven't had any problems with the "NS Community" tbh... <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Prune Juice, the Old Fogies flagship server, usually has an admin on, and we encourage sportsmanship. pj.oldf.net
try it out, see if it's your cup o' tea.

It's so lame when the rines start cussing at the aliens when it's nearing endgame.
"haha stupid gorge" "Die F-ing nub" "LoL stupid f-ing Onos died" blah blah blah.
Lame pubbers like that make me want to quit this game over and over again. I don't EVER remember it being THIS BAD on the CS servers when I last played it -4 years ago.
A simple block_opposingteam_chat would fix this, but no such command exists. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo--> Thanks, though, for the "OLDF" sever suggestion. I'll try to make myself a regular there. Seems like the Cheating Death suggestion didn't help any. The severs are too far between and not enforced at all for some reason.
simple fact is it's the same in every single game
easiest solution is to find a server /servers on which there are regular admins who will keep things under control
best way of doing this is hopping on irc and joining popular clan servers - they *tend* to be the best quality... just create your own favourites list of servers that are worth playing on
my NS server list consists of 4 servers... i have slots on 3 of them, so i can always get a place, and the 2 i'm not admin's on are extremely well adminned.. i'm not going to paste ip's here cause thats lame advertisement (and they are UK based - i'm assuming that you're american? simply because majority of people here are)
Anyways, isn't it possible to set different display times for team_say and regular say? Just set the latter to 0, or 0.1 or so.
That stuff I hate. Pointless, repetitive gloating I also hate...however I also think a little bit of trash talk is ok, if not fun. It gets your blood boiling, makes you play better, gets you into the game, etc. If you really hate it sure block chat, but I always think it's fine for, say, a gorge to say "lol pwned!" if he web-spits two jps to death <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> . Which I have seen done.
Anyone with ethics knows where the line is, just don't cross it.
something like : Nub!
I would defenitly ban a player doing this
alias "chatoff" "hud_saytext 0; bind KP_PLUS chaton"
alias "chaton" "hud_saytext 1; bind KP_PLUS chatoff"
bind KP_PLUS "chatoff"
This is what i use anyway.
aviod your &^%(@!#NSSSVERSCOOL@*#(*&#† servers
like someone else said Lunixmonster is a good server,i play there(just won my first comm game)
if you really cant stand playing with other people in pubs,hop on #nspug
and get a game going
No, but you can have a list of favorite servers.
Also, I've never seen anyone in NS as annoying as people in WoW. Here's an example of a taunt that a guildie had (until I quit the game):
<!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->

His was a bit better lined up than mine. Note that this took up the entire height of the default chat window and was yelled (meaning that everyone in the area, including people of the other faction, could hear it).
He had several others, including ones that the mods don't want me to post here.

Just incidentally, muting their voice actually also mutes their text.
disconnect
Find Servers
Connect

Dont get disheartend, just play around and be dirty <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

You can't mute the opposing team. If there was a way, I wouldn't have started this topic in the first place. I like chatting with my own teammates and I enjoy a little trash talk, but sometimes you just want block out the idiots entirely.
I have no problems muting spammers, but I have a plea to pls not just mute people if you think they are young, because some females and young players like commanding, and it makes it difficult if half (or more) of the team has you muted.
