Master ToF Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Hello everyone, I'm doing this topic because i do not know what to do. Since now almost 3 weeks, when we join the server, there is an ad with a VERY STRONG sound. It's unbearable and i can not stand it anymore. I do not want to listen to that anymore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bW_A1W7Ak4 I understand that hg need income but you do not have to put a sound. I am not the only one with this problem. So i began by asking staff who told me that only Homer can handle this. So i sent a message to Homer on October 22nd. He did not read it. So i made a video and this topic to ask to solve this problem please. Thank you . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brgr. Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Well, if Staff says only Homer can handle it. what was the point in making the topic if they can't do anything? I'm also sure you can turn off the sound in those motds somehow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValueSensei Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) +Agree Jeez, if money is what we need I suspect I essentially pay whatever we make on that ad anyway. It is so annoying. Kill it. Kill it with fire so that our ears may live, or die, in peace! Well, if Staff says only Homer can handle it. what was the point in making the topic if they can't do anything? I'm also sure you can turn off the sound in those motds somehow. Valid point but I still wish death on that ad.

Master ToF Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) brgr, if I do this topic it's because I do not know what to do. I CAN NOT ANYMORE. I have already tried FULL of things. I tried to see if the program was in the sound manager, I installed a program blocker to block awesomium_process. I have already tried to put the command cl_disablehtmlmotd 1. So yes the staff said he could not do anything, so we stay like that? No. You do not play zs, when you have that at each map, in the evening when everyone sleeps, it's unbearable.

ValueSensei Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 It is definitely a little annoying :/ I don't mind an ad but if we keep ads we should at least have ones that do not ear-bleed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Raper Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 It is definitely a little annoying :/ I don't mind an ad but if we keep ads we should at least have ones that do not ear-bleed. or at least be able to disable sounds on them... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValueSensei Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 or at least be able to disable sounds on them... Well yeah. But more importantly I feel like just between a few of us who donate we pay more then the ad makes, and I'd rather not lose any good community members over these annoying ear bleeds.

Yeah true, I was just adding on to what you were saying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 So i sent a message to Homer. He did not read it. Honestly, You're probably not going to get anywhere with this. Ads bring in $$$ and why would HG want to lose any more income. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValueSensei Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 i remember that.... a long time ago can the ad at least turn off if you close the motd , that would be fine This would also be acceptable to me. The irony being the companies that make these annoying ads just make me not want to buy their crap.... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValueSensei Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 type stopsound in consol Doesn't stop the ad sound for me. Idk about anyone else though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValueSensei Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 The MOTD sound is louder than normal at the moment because a setting is messed up. Homer needs to lower the volume of the ads, but after he does you won't lose your hearing anymore. I suppose that is good. As long as I'm not dead from ad noises before I even have a chance to let the zombies eat me.... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessica Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 it's a bit annoying , mine kept playing the god damn world of tanks XD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValueSensei Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Thats weird rip man im on w10 and it works to mute it in csgo and other games. oh well sorry it didnt work tho My solution is to dominate the world- I mean... My solution is to just mute all audio till the ad is finished. Although I unmuted too soon last time I played. For those reading - Sometimes (Not all the time) you are able to close out the ad after a few seconds. Although unfortunately, the loud intelrape ads wont let me till they finish.
