any more than 3 channels is abit excessive because I want to be able to see the chat in all of them.

Yeah but, "say if you did" it would look a bit silly with 5-6 different channels down your screen.

Nice quoting, bro.

Yes, it would look silly with 5-6 channels down your screen, sure. But that's like it is silly to have a skin with pink ponies on it. It is, but you don't have to use it.

It gives people the choice to be in as many channels as they like, if we want to allow people to use multiple channels, we shouldn't put a cap on the number.

Or a different colour (or maybe not), yeah.

Different colours sounds like an innovative idea too.

but how would you go about displaying 8 different channels on a screen efficiently?

And there arnt enough colours for the supposed 8 channels.

Yes, that is the only problem.

[[TC]►Ras◄]

Tbh, i don't think anyone would ever end up in that many channels. Maybe 3-4?

1) Team channel
2) Country/language channel
3) Couple of friends/party channel
4) MED/RES/TOW chat channel
5) ...hmm nope that's it.

I wasn't suggesting we use different colours.

A cap of 3/4 channels sounds like enough but if we can find a way to do it without a cap then that'll be an advantage.

About the lag thingy... It'd be nice, tho it should be longer than 2s. Personally i sometimes have issues with that, tho i cant fix it because there probably is a fault with my isp or router. Getting those spikes up for couple sec when everyone just disappears.. Tried updating firmware, installing dd-wrt (made it worse) - aint helping. Therefore by this kind of update, i myself would loose loads of moneyz :\

I don't think that if it was put in place, it would allow any COP's or robbers to loose any xp or money because it would be (in most cases) unfair to the person loosing the xp

Hey guys,merry christmas!

Today were thinking something new. I were looking if it were suggested it before but i never found nothing . I want to suggest the oportunity of have multiple channels. For example, if cant be unlimited number of chanels, only two or three.I suggest it because i want one channel for the SO team but want other for speeak with spanish guys without leaving always.
I want to suggest to add more commands like
!channel1 nameofch (for join on it)
!ch1 msg (for speak on it)
!channel2 nameofch (for join on it)
!ch msg (for speak on it)

Hope it like to others.

I feel it's already confusing with the !l, !pm and !ch..

[Dan]

It was suggested here: http://forum.city-driving.co.uk/showthre...?tid=11939

It would be nice.

[Borja]

Oh, i never found it Daniel.Thanks for aport it..

Too many people needs more than one channel. So thats my solution.

!channeljoin xxxx -> its your first channel
!ch1 message ->for send message to channel xxxx
[CHXXXX]Somebody: message -> For reading
!channelquit xxxx -> for left channel

!channeljoin yyyy -> second channel
!ch2 message -> for send message to channel yyyy
[CHYYYY]Somebody: message -> For reading
!channelquit yyyy -> for left channel

Goes forever...

I know that suggested 2 times but its 4 years ago. We really need this uptade in 2018.

This suggestion has appeared at least 3 times.
I have merged the threads together.

(For the record, suggestion #1 of this OP exists now)

[fWANKy]

great to see the only useful post i made was 4 years ago

[[TC]►Cam◄]

Just wondering if there's any update in regards to the channel idea, do we know if it's possible yet? If so, is it being worked on/time frame as to when it'll be implemented?
