Elphinstone Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Seriously, st. Anger, sheesh. I agree with adam, and i too am against censorship, but tip.it is a site where around 20% of the people are below 13. So, he is right. As for team speak, i think it's a great idea, and that if you can run it through the scripting to get passwords up and running then it would work better.

Alduron Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Locking this thread. To the spam'ers and flam'ers you know better consider this a warning next time I will not be so nice. Such a channel will not be endorsed by Tip.it at this time. It would require too much moderating power to be able to follow our rules. The potential mass of individual users would make it virtually impossible to handle. Edit: While we will not be endorsing this, we will allow you to continue discussing it and form such channel on your own. Please do not continue flaming and use this opportunity to discuss and develop this idea. You are also welcome to attempt and convince us why such would be worthwile for our forum. Happy Posting ~Alduron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Hiya Guys. Hmm Team speak. I'm not against this chat service at all, though it does have its problems in keeping it running and out of trouble :) nothing much different from running irc. I did run one for tip.it a long time ago but did not have the staff to cover it for 24/7 and so i had to close it down. However that was back when we had very few staff here. Now i'm not jumping on anyone toes here i hope. and the suggestion and idea is a good one and would like to see it continue. However if it is run outside of our staff team then we can not make this a officail one for tip.it. For a number of reasons i could go into but it be a long list. You have a few choices , You can either use the one of who ever runs one. (which is fine by me as long as its unoffical) Or Prove to us Admins here that it be worth our time and money to look into getting teamspeak for you. Or If you wish to run a teamspeak server for tip.it offically then i suggest you come and talk to us directly (private message on the board) and we see if we can sort something out between us. Lightning P.s. we are always looking into ways to help you enjoy this site more and additions you may want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediasoldier Posted October 6, 2006 Author Share Posted October 6, 2006 Of course it would be worth while. Typing is of course much slower than talking, and people might need thing done/sold as fast as they possibly can, so think about it, instant quest support via voice chat, and if you do not have a microphone you could send text messages to channels. Also, following the moderation subject, I could hand pick a few people to moderate with me, in which case I will be watching over everything that goes on inside this server. This could also be a great chance for people to make friends. Please, consider this great opportunity for tip.it. R.I.P. Mediasoldier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityhunter25 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Whoot! Teamspeak for RS, The clan i'm in for a pc game uses TS so i'm used to it.

Sadly, we all know it takes just one bad apple to ruin it for all of us. :cry: I wonder though if I can get access to the TS thingy here... guess I have work to do. :( ~Mr. Devnull and normally with a cool mind.(Warning: This user can be VERY confusing to some people...

SwreeTak Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Ok...Is it just me who think Tip.It forums is much better than that program? Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aznmidget448 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Ok...Is it just me who think Tip.It forums is much better than that program? You can use the program just to chat with friends. I think it will be better for more immediate conversations. I like your idea. Mr. Devnull's acronym "TITANS" is really catchy in my opinion.

Infi Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Too much of a safety issue. There's young kids who'd connect, and it's extremely hard to moderate what people say. I'm not shutting you down or anything - I'm just repeating the reason I've heard before. Your acting like a concerned mother whos sheltering their kids. Its not like they havent heard it before. They see it in runescape, and the hear it on tv. Your not going to avoid it, and plus your on the internet where you can't controll other peoples actions. So deal with it Yeah well a couple of swear words can produce different outcomes on how someone's life turns out. A couple of swearwords can turn a kid into a bad adult, it's true. So there, bake that potato and eat it. 99 Hits, Attack, Strength, Defence, Mage, Summoning, Slayer, Ranged, 96/99 Prayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I know why I was thinking of a "shoot-on-sight" method to the whole "Tip.It Team Area Network System" ("TITANS") thing. Maybe give a second chance in rare situations. But other than that, you use foul language or verbally and personally attack another person with full intent to do so, then you get banned forever from "TITANS"... =; [bTW, I intentionally used 'my name idea' in place of the 'original name idea' for reasons of good language versus bad language. I'm sorry, but I don't feel like talking about female body parts. Get the drift now?] ~Mr. Devnull and normally with a cool mind.(Warning: This user can be VERY confusing to some people...

There was only one person in there :XD: Keep checking every day then. From what I hear, people who do those voice chats regularly end up finding others and getting a full party together. :) ~Mr. Devnull and normally with a cool mind.(Warning: This user can be VERY confusing to some people...
