Shankveld 4,949 January 17, 2012 Share January 17, 2012 What if limits are put on those who spam ~ because 5 seconds is too long, and 10 messages a minute can be too little, especially when there are only like 3 active ponies in the chat. ~ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now there's no sequel. But the thing is I'm not doing that I'm doing this. Did you ever think I get lonely? Did you ever think that I needed love? Did you ever think, stop thinking You're the only one that I'm thinking of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps something like a 30 second chat suspension, placed on those who press the 'enter' button more than 5 times in fifteen seconds? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop 2,278 January 17, 2012 Share January 17, 2012 But the thing is I'm not doing that I'm doing this. Whether you may be conversing by means of one word per sentence or three, the negative impact of disrupting the flow of conversation still remains; whether posting in such a manner is simply a habit or otherwise, for the sake of avoiding any potential inconvenience to others, im sure that you (as well as all other members) are perfectly capable of writing out full sentences in order to communicate with others. While I understand that on occasion, the use of short sentences can be considered appropriate (such as for the use of emphasis, or comical impact), for the most part, writing in phrases can potentially result in chat disruptions, and such an issue can easily be avoided by simply refraining from overusing bite-sized posts as a means of discussing matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoop 8,384 January 17, 2012 Share January 17, 2012 That isn't too bad of an idea, I suppose something of the like could be arranged by Feld0. Perhaps something like a 30 second chat suspension, placed on those who press the 'enter' button more than 5 times in fifteen seconds? Unfortunately IP.Chat is probably the one thing on the site that Feld0 has no means to modify - the entire thing is operated entirely on a remote server with very little in the way of configuration or automated enforcement options.

I thought that might have been a possibility, but me being the optimist I am, I just secluded it in the dark part of my brain until confirmed.

KBz 499 January 17, 2012 Share January 17, 2012 If I was talking like this for example and the sentences were multiple and also long like this one then yeah that is spam But if I go like this, on the other hand It's not spamming, its a way some people think, in fragments. ...For some reason, I still think this is part of chat spam. Word by word is so annoying. … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Rarity Pony 4,892 January 17, 2012 Share January 17, 2012 Tis why I don't even hang out in the chat too much anymore. teh tulking likee dis iz teh mane reezzen Definitely something worth addressing as a few people continually write like this and whenever they're in the chat you will have this kind of spam. LRP's opinions are subject to change without notice. Fees and penalties still apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezynell 2,037 January 18, 2012 Share January 18, 2012 Possible solution: recruiting some more active responsable chat moniters that use it frequently. To the extent of my knowledge, there are only two. GAK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
