gadai Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Just wondering whether or not people would think it's a good idea for guild rank 19's to be able to mute their members both on #gm (as any Rank 19 can do currently) and (and here's the contentious idea) on local if they can see the member. I can't see the downside of the idea, so please enlighten me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acelon Report post Posted August 5, 2005 If you want to mute someone in #gm, change there rank to 1-4 As for local, that won't happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gadai Report post Posted August 5, 2005 I've muted people in our guild on occasion - usually if a disagreement goes beyond the polite or if some of the old members (some of whom are/were not particularly nice people) log on. Like the desc said - just a barmy idea I guess - the point of the idea was to make guilds more culpable for their members behaviour on local chat really.

MoJo Report post Posted August 5, 2005 vermor id quit a guild if i was ranking 4!!! 185840[/snapback] I've done this a few times, you won't be kept rank 4 only for a short period of time then hopefully if you behave you'll get your rank back. Thats just what i did of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gadai Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Pretty much the same here Mojo - used as a restraint/temp punishment - not ever without good cause. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanyel Report post Posted August 6, 2005 Setting guildie rank at 4 is punishment. If you leave after that you probably never should have been in guild. The good idea is to pm guild master or officer who lowered your rank and apologise for your behaiving. They surely will set your rank back (after some time - just to be sure you remember it).

Arnieman Report post Posted August 6, 2005 Yeah, muting people in guild, we can't do anything in the guild channel, but who really uses the guild channel? Almost everyone I know uses #gm, and guild officers (19 and Guildmaster) just change ranks down for a bit if we need to moderate our guild chat. As for local, we are GUILD leaders; no one made us EL moderators. If that job needs to be done by somebody, let's leave it to the people already set to do that.

Mar(c) Report post Posted August 6, 2005 (edited) Riva still uses guild channel. Why do I have the feeling that we're about the only guild who does... With the upcoming multi-channel support, I think more guild channels will be used again. That is, #gm's only for important messages, and the guild channel for guild chat. As it always has been supposed to be... And some guild channel mod commands would be a good thing to have indeed! Edited August 6, 2005 by Mar(c) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ttlanhil Report post Posted August 6, 2005 With the upcoming multi-channel support, I think more guild channels will be used again. 186020[/snapback] so you'd think. I thought a lot of channels would pic up after multi-channel was out and about. but they're looking at a max of 3 channels at a time... so the change won't be as big as it should be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
