BunnyHillPro 111 Posted August 7, 2012 It can get you blacklisted if the sidechat doesn't server a DIRECT and REAL purpose.Examples:Trading PostReddit Server Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

random51 172 Posted August 7, 2012 I played on a reddit server yesterday that had sidechat enabled. Unfortunately at least one hacker played there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

urbanfox 116 Posted August 7, 2012 It can get you blacklisted if the sidechat doesn't server a DIRECT and REAL purpose.Examples:Trading PostReddit ServerThat's not true.Enabling side-chat is a direct violation of the rules. It will result in a server being blacklisted. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaba01 4 Posted August 7, 2012 You could play on a private server with a private hive. Most of them have side chat enabled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrcrackerhd 7 Posted August 7, 2012 Whats this so called HIVE i keep hearing?Its the "Master Server" where all your player/server ingame data is saved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
urbanfox 116 Posted August 7, 2012 Ah man why you gotta go and ruin the fun part? I cant even enjoy this game without sidechat.What I would recommend is joining a clan or a server with vent/ts/mumble/etc. I understand the frustration, but side-chat was taken out for a specific reason and at this time everyone must follow the rules.

Sonova 5 Posted August 7, 2012 What I would recommend is joining a clan or a server with vent/ts/mumble/etc. I understand the frustration, but side-chat was taken out for a specific reason and at this time everyone must follow the rules. And that reason being? Because if you say shit-talking then you should slap yourself (Or Rocket) in the face with shovel, as this does NOT prevent shit-talk in the least. If you were not going to say that, disregard my previous statement and please explain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
urbanfox 116 Posted August 7, 2012 As I understand it global/side chat is not realistic in a survival setting.According to Rocket, in version 1.8+ new means of communication will be introduced into the game, however.Also, I'm not sure why you have to have such a hostile attitude.

Because I had a slight hunch that you'd use the word realistic in a game about zombies. But the hostility wasn't quite intended as you can't portray correctly a tone in text.
