Couch Crumbs Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I'm starting this thread because a lot of people have been saying they're annoyed by people trolling and saying "stop" on good songs on warday. Personally it dosen't annoy me that much, but it does to a lot of people. I heard a good suggestion today, someone said that it should take something like 5 stop requests to make someone have to stop playing. Don't hate on me if you think this is a bad idea.

ExGBrian Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I like this idea, most of the people who say off are just trolls but other people actually hate the music. I think admins should have the right to make source mod command votes so we can see if the server wants it off or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youthedog Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 No.. off = off. Why do you want to make this complicated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Broken- Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Problem with defining "good" music is everyone has different music tastes. What is good to one person might not be all that great to another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couch Crumbs Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 Why do you want to make this complicated? Let me reiterate: it's not really my idea, I just want to get a discussion going as I've heard a lot of complaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Broken- Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 It needs new rules OP is correct, most of the admins saying OFF are just trolls or personal attacks Maybe it is differences in times being on the server, but roughly 8 times out of 10 when I'm on the server admins tell someone to turn it off because someone in dead chat asked for it off and the person playing can't see it.

mccaincracker Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 when theres 60 players in the server there's not a song or clip that will please EVERYONE. so in reality, HLDJ shouldn't even be used, ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EchoSniper Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Personally I don't like people just spamming off when music is playing. I have never said off to a song unless someone is requesting it to be off. I just take off my headset and listening to a different song. This is JB not hardcore CS:S. You don't need to hear footsteps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbon Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 on good songs on warday That's strange, I've never heard a good song on a warday. It's always stupid shit. Sorry boys and girls, I don't find sponge bob campfire songs, asian music, and "gangsters" singing how they fuck bitches, good music. how about just no hldj..... please? Hey look, this would solve the problem of people playing sihtty music, and our spam problem! HLDJ shouldn't even be used, ever. You deserve a medal. you can always mute the player through the esc menu :/ Instead of forcing your shitty music tastes upon other players, you can also press shift + tab, open up youtube.com, and listen to your own shitty music! Problem solved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RageQuit Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 That's strange, I've never heard a good song on a warday. It's always stupid shit. I hate to say it, but every thread involving HLDJ in some shape or form ALWAYS has to be derailed by the "remove it" movement. If it really pisses you off that badly, remove its functionality on the server or limit its usage to what JJK said a few posts up. I understand why some users dislike it, but there has been little effort (aside from JJK's experiment with it being off until 4 minutes) to change how it works in the server whatsoever so that it can be employed responsibly (see: new users on the server and those not in HG typically being the offenders). I like JJK's idea in making a rank requirement (or admin) to use HLDJ. As for warday music, I still wish there were a way to implement a quick voting system for songs integrated into the server so that HLDJ could be disabled entirely during a warday round along with users being able to toggle the song as well, but I'm sure that would take more effort than is desired to code.

Zezima Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 To those who say it should just be off all together have to keep in mind that HLDJ can sometimes be very useful, such as with dance party days, pirate days, etc. I agree completely that the useless spam is not needed but isn't that why the admins have a mute function? Personally, I enjoy keeping a good variety of music in my HLDJ list so that I can actually play good music on wardays because it's enjoyable to me. I like the idea of changing this rule but removing HLDJ really isnt the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine a server, without HLDJ, where you can HEAR ORDERS clearly, NOT have your ears bleed because of shitty quality sound clips, THIS IS THE FUTURE, EMBRACE IT.

JJK Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I haven never seen a server limit hldj. they have it either on, or off. and ever ther jb had it off (we are unique and spammy) Why not try some restrictions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RageQuit Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 dont force us to listen to your music because not everyone likes the same kind Why not try some restrictions? Why are people so unwilling to look for a compromise that suits everyone? JJK threw out some potential ideas, and I gave a suggestion at the end of page 2. I don't understand why people are so adamant about all or nothing, thinking ends justify the means, when it's possible to please more than just one group taking a stance on the issue.
