Rejected Limit private channels

Just think of teamspeak as highschool, you got all your little groups that you need to work your way into. Or just don't bother at all and try to form your own. Honestly isn't that big of a deal and if you hang around you will get to know people and they will bring you into the different channels.

 

One word: Drama

 

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

 

True, it's easy to be taken care of, but it's beyond obnoxious when you can't tab out of a game, and someone comes in spamming the loudest sound clips that kill your hearing @Yatty knows the feels.

 

I've personally probably banned at least 4 people people on Teamspeak over constant trolling/micspamming.

 

So make the security level 25 so it'd take 15 minutes per account for them to come back
Edit: Instead of just tossing a dislike, maybe explain why? It's a fair idea, spammers won't waste time getting into a community for their 5 minutes of fame.

 

You realize how easy it is to setup a VPN and make a new identity just to join back right? These people always come back every now and then just to troll/micspam and get banned.

Having private channels is a lot better than them spamming the General section of the Teamspeak. I'd rather them be micspamming in a channel that isn't the first channel you join into on Teamspeak.

 

You know when you ban a teamspeak account, you ban their identity (User Unique ID), VPN or not, they need to set level 25 security again (Which is once again, 15 minutes).

 

There are a number of Teamspeak exploits and ways around bans that editing security wont do much of anything but make things harder in the future for staff and players.

 

For me the longest it takes to make a level 25 security level identity is 50 seconds. During that time I could also switch my VPN and change my Windows Product ID (If that's still needed to bypass a ban).
For a person with a bad computer it would take longer just to join the server troll or not. I see no upside to this, if I join a server and it says I need a higher security level I won't do it (I won't have that problem since my security is at 30, but still).

 

Then set it higher god damn, security level 25 was just an example.

 

Feel free to make your own channel, you'll see after a while why most people don't.

 

Like I said, at this point it is not even worth joining as there is no one to talk too, teamspeak is all about making new friends, and forcefully barging/poking someone to get into a locked channel isn't the way to do so.

 

I think the solution here is to just try making your own open channel. Maybe it'll work out for you It does require some patience, but to be honest, I created my own channel the second I became a mod in the beginning of January, and kept it up until yesterday. It's how I made almost all of my friends on this community, and it really worked well for me for a long time.
I'm just saying, there comes a day where it grows tiresome to try and keep everyone in the channel happy and keeping it all calm and civil can be hard. That's why I deleted mine. It became more stressful than it was fun.
When you make an open channel, eventually a lot of people will come visit you and see what you're up to, natural curiosity I guess. And if you see someone in a "Lonely Channel" invite them into yours! (*cough* @Makuzi )
Anyone can make a channel, just be aware that channels disappear when no one is in them. If you want to keep yours up, you'll have to stay in the channel yourself, or have someone stay in there at all times, which in itself can be annoying to maintain. For mine, we ended up making bots to keep it open which was a HUGE pain.

TL;DR Try making your own open channel. Meet new people that way.

 

You're saying you want to make friends by forcing people to talk to you?

I don't know if you've ever been to a school or anything but that's not how life works.

 

That's exactly what I'm saying, if you poke people to join their channel, you're pretty much forcing them to talk to you, with an open environment, people can interact freely, and meet someone who shares common interests. And by the way, no need to be such an ass.

 

Since this thread is becoming us saying the same thing over and over, along with this already being suggested and denied I will be locking this thread.

If you have any concerns feel free to PM me.
