FireFox_uk 0 Posted November 7, 2003 hi bis, is their any chance of you delovoping a logging system for the chat type in Multi-player mode for dedcait server, as for the last two months now more and more people are goin on to the server and are spamming the hell out of it and because they type too much in the spam when you scroll up to see who spammer is, it doesn't show their name only the person that type or connected before their spam, so we can't kick them or tell them to stop, i know that thier is alreadly a log that logs everyone who connects to the server but their isn't log that logs the chat type in the pool,briefing and gameplay, could you developing a logging system for chat in the next update and for ofp2 please so that when these annoying people start spamming we can check the log and then kick them off the server for it. thank you in advance for any help you can do on this matter.

iNeo 0 Posted November 7, 2003 It's not likely that they would add such a feature as the only future patches (if any) will be released only to get rid of serious bugs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
killbox90 0 Posted November 7, 2003 lol, thats why its fun to be server admin...."kick....ban" but then ppl have no lives and they come back with a ID generator... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FireFox_uk 0 Posted November 7, 2003 well you see the problem is that we can't kick or ban them if we don't know who they are as when you scroll up it doesn't show thier name next to the spam. hence the reason y i was asking for a loggin system for chat. so that we can check the log and see who was spaming.

the_unknown_one 0 Posted November 7, 2003 wouldn't it be abit late then? and also, like iNeo said, its not likely Bis would impelement something as small as that in a future patch, if there are any. the_unknown_one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B-2-0 0 Posted November 8, 2003 I agree with Firefox. As the game is becoming cheaper to buy and the 'kids' are picking it up, spam levels are on a major increase. If there are any more patches in the making i am sure this would not be hard to implement and would be a damn good addition imo. It is a nightmare when u are admin and all u want is to have a nice game but u can't because some ass is spamming because he/she knows he/she can't be found out. This leads to innocent people sometimes being kicked from the server to try and root out the culprit which then gives the server a bad rep Why can't these idiots just grow up.

shadow 6 Posted November 8, 2003 BIS have said in the past that they will no longer develop features for OFP1 and only fix the major bugs that has direct impact on gameplay. Case closed. ...And so is this thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
