A while ago, our esteemed Allegiance developers at the behest of dogbones added a very nice feature that I will refer to as Easy Muting.

Easy muting is very easy to do, all it requires is two clicks.

JoeNewbie(0): spam spam spam!
Drizzo: shut up
JoeNewbie(0): spam spam spam!
JoeNewbie(0): spam spam spam!
JoeNewbie(0): spam spam spam!

In said situation all you must do is right click JoeNewbie's name and then left click (OR EVEN HIT 'M' ZOMG IT REALLY IS THAT EASY) the mute tab. There aren't even other options, I'm pretty damn sure even a caveman could do it.

So why, if this is so easy, do players insist of continuously typing, alt-tabbing out of the game, swishing and typing in all caps, and in essence spamming the Please Stop Spamming, when with 2 clicks they can silence said person for the duration they play allegiance?

I honestly don't know if it can get more easier than that. The only other reasons I see that you people are unable to do this is because A) You're an attention seeking sonofabitch who loves to bicker and fight with people for no reason. or B) You're $#@!ing stupid.

Smarten the $#@! up if you're going to even open Allegiance.exe.

I'm filing a grievance to the ACLU. Even a caveman could do it?! Your lawyers will most definitely be hearing from his.

I'm sorry I don't remember any of it. For you the day spideycw graced your squad with utter destruction was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Sunday

There have been some lobby boots for spamming that I seriously question.

if you want to mute them while in-game use "!mute anyoldjerk". Yes that is a ! not a #.

Also, unfortunately I cannot find an option to permanently mute someone. You will need to do one of these each time you log in. Someone said it resets each time a new game starts but I haven't confirmed that.

Are those my only options? Cause I know it ain't A and that only leaves B... not that isn't a reasonable option it's it's * burst into tears *

You know instead of 40 people typing mute, 1 typing ban is much quicker and easier.

People just take stuff too seriously I think. Except IB, of course.
