[Resolved] [IRC]Main Chat re-added in #echo
« on: 06 06, 2012, 07:20:14 am »
Title says all... It was useful to have the chats in echo, it gave us something to do in case we could go to IRC but not IG.

Some time ago I asked why it got removed, and answer was "the spam".

Isn't that the same spam we get IG every day and work and live with it?

I don't know about you guys, but in my screen I see every day and at the same time Main Chat of LV, SF and LS, Teams Chat, Support, Spanish chat, Group Chat, CIT chat, and add emergency chat when cop job.

So I don't see "spam" as a valid argument to remove the chats.

And if you want the spam reduced, well, at least Main Chat would be good, so we can handle support and main chat mutes from echo...

Opinions?

I would like to see it re-added in a new IRC channel, such as #IGchat, but if it lags too much (which I can't really understand why it would if it's connected to the same server as the ingame server), then I guess it cbf.
Need help with something CIT-related? Answers to many questions can be found in the Tutorials & Guides section. If you can't find what you're looking for there, ask about your issue in the General Support / Questions section and someone will be happy to help you.

It would be way to much spam. And currently, if the bot in #echo is spammed way too much, it'll have delay, and having 1 minute delay on the bot in #IGchat would just be too much, imo.

It was too much spam when it was Main LS/ SF/ LV + Team Chats + Support.

What if we just re-add Main LS/SF/LV? In a separated channel as Rusty says?

I believe the IRC bot can be modified to work in multiple channels, although im not sure. I do like this idea though.

No.. To much spam. Bot cant paste messages from 800 players. It'll lag so much and messages will be delayed with 30 seconds or even more! When it got removed messages sometimes was 10 seconds delayed, that's pretty much. Well know we got double as much players, so it'll be double as much spam. Yes, it is removed cause of the spam. The IRC bot can't paste that many messages without lagging, or at least delaying them, which is why it is removed.
You forgot that people doesn't talk in mainchat as much as they did before due to the 250$ fee.
