Broadcast Bickering 

What is up with all the fighting on the broadcast channel in Justice as of late? I dont care what one player I have never seen said to another player I have never seen about something I dont care about. And the usual third-party chips in to yell about being on the broadcast or to side with one of the players only to be bashed by both. And that only prolongs the arguement. Things tend to deterriate into petty name calling and lame excuses. Thank god I can jusy leave the zone to get away from it.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

I completely agree. I have most of my characters on Justice, and as of late, I hear constant flaming and bickering, especially in AP. It gets very annoying, even though the only reason I am usually in AP is when I have a new toon, guess I'll start bringing them into Galaxy or some other servers, and hope its a little calmer there.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

Its happening on Freedom and Protector to and its really getting out of hand. Why do these guys think it needs to be on broadcast anyway?

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

I have toons across the board and can tell ya it's not just localized to certain servers. I'm building low alts on all of them and spend a fair amount of time in Atlas. It is getting pretty annoying and my iggy list is probably bursting at the seams with how many names I throw into it a day.

Maybe a bunch of regular players gave up and moved on and gave their accounts to their 11-12 year olds. And if I have to hear one more sexual induendo about someones mom, I'm gonna lose it.

What about all those "So-and-so is the worst such-an-AT I've ever seen." messages. Oh, and my favorite, "So-and-so fights like a white belt!"

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

I've never seen that one happen. It sounds pretty childish.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

Saw it on pinnacle one day found out later that one of the people involved was 34 and the other was 12.

Edit: sorry numbers here are age not lvls my mistake.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

I wonder if that started with an argument about power leveling?

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

Its not limited to Atlas Park either. I was forced to endure a pitiful dialogue on the pros/cons/methods of PL'ing while in PI the other day on Virtue.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

I've heard that one before. What about, "Don't let So-and-so team with you! He's a (string of names not even related to the game)!"

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

i know it is mildly offtopic but another peeve that is happening more and more lately is spamvites (unrequested team invites). Not only is it rare anybody asks anymore they send invites over and over as fast as you can decline them. It has gotten to the point that i am just putting the senders on /ignore before i decline the first invite. As much as i dislike the idea of slowing down log in maybe one answer would be the occasional additional screen while logging in of ettiquette lessons.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

Hello,

I have observed numerous bouts of 'yelling' across the channels. If they spend more than three lines on my screen doing it, I apply the /IGNORE command, to both people. If they are that petty, I don't care to be involved with them in any matter. I certainly don't want to team with them!

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

Happens because you have a whole bunch of nine year olds thinking they are bigshots. Why cant people understand that no one cares that one person hates another and there is no reason to put it on the broadcast, request and arena channel...keep it to /tells.

On the issue of spamvites why is it so difficult for people to read the search comment "PST FIRST OR IT WILL BE DECLINED" in my oppinion if the team leader has the time to search for people they should have the time to send the player a tell

Champion is getting horrible as well, but I can't get away from it by leaving the zone. They've gotten to the point where they do it on the Arena channel, which sounds through all the zones, following me everywhere. :(

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

I hate people bickering on the broadcast channel. I really don't like people spamming it in general never mind bickering. I play the game for fun, and the broadcast channel is for important messages, like monster sightings. It's no good to me to have to wade through a load of drivel just to find the important messages. Bickering is just a bit pointless too, if you have problems with someone there are countless solutions, theres not a lot of need to resort to bickering. Mind you there are younger players out there, some people are hotheads in general...

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

I'm afraid a lot of the bickering seems to be from the younger players, though.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

Ive gotten alot of invites that just send the invite without a tell. Some Ill actually accept and play with them for a while but I actually want a tell sent first. Ive also had to put a message on a couple of my character.
Ive never been spamvited before but i expect that to start happening any time now.
Back to the main topic ive noticed that on all my chars in AP that alot of griping and complaining in all forms has been going on an its starting to expand to other zones on Freedom server.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

Spamming the broadcast channel with crap like that is silly but on Liberty I encountered something even more strange. Two guys were using the Request channel and were spamming it. Each seemed to have bound a macro to say something. One would say, "I know you are but what am I?" and the other would say, "A @#$!" or some other stupid insult. They went back and forth so much my request channel was constantly scrolling. If someone told them to shut up on the Request channel, their message would scroll off in about a second.

Re: Broadcast Bickering 

On the English servers most bickering seems to be about teaming. Eg

P1 - Don't team with P2 coz hes ****
P2 - No i'm not!
P1 - yeah u are.
P2 - U can't even hold a group of mobs
P1 - yeah thats coz u go in and **** everyfin up

After this it usually desends into a mass of abuse. Oh and iggy lists being increased by another two.
