Archived Add A Screaming Cooldown

[taintedly]

I honestly can't count all the times my rp has been interrupted by unnecessary screaming, like:
Hoodie Vamp: OMG!!! Edward Cullen dumped meh!!!
Hoodie Vamp's Even Noobier Friend: aw I am sorry for u!!!
Hoodie Vamp: Thank u!!!
Etcetera.
Needless screaming is just a giant thing that annoys me. The problem is that the people who scream constantly are usually the same people that refuse to read the lore and don't listen to advice.
I propose that a cooldown is implemented in local chat so that players may only scream once every five minutes.

Once every 30seconds-1 minutes would be more realistic I think

Yeah, I guess. I just want someeee sort of cooldown so I don't have to suffer through being able to hear a hipster sanguine get dumped all the way down the street lmfao.

I think it should be more like.. 10-20 seconds? Because in situations such as torture and getting kidnapped, it's kinda necessary.

True, 20 seconds would be a good number because it's also gives the other person time to react

Ex:
Making the screamer stfu

or we just do the easier way and just give them a friendly pm

You would want the cool down time to not impede those who actually need screaming for role play, but at the same time make the trolls just give up since they cant troll without waiting.. so I think about a minute would be a good time

Requested years ago. Probably not happening anytime soon because low priority.

There's mon's thing and then there's the ignore command
