Feedback and Suggestions / Re: Captains to be able to kick players off of ships.

The only problem with kicking people is that you assume that only people who are justified to kick people will, what about the same trolls who will undoubtedly start up games as captains and then proceed to kick whole crews from games, I agree there needs to be a way to handle disruptive trolls but I do not see a kick button working very well, unless like I said earlier was based on a majority vote of either crew or captains in the game.

I also do not mind people not looking up a translator I just don't think people who speak another language should be kicked if that is the only reason that they would be kicked, just like I would not expect myself to be kicked if I do not speak, for example, Russian.

While I am very new to this community I do not think that the proposed "kick" button would be a healthy move for it.

Try looking up a translator on the internet and message them during the wait for the next game

4/5/6/7 Just kicking them won't change their attitude either, if they are trolling purposely then it will only encourage them, maybe report them to a CA mod?

please make this kick button reality.

reasons why you should make this reality:

1. Who likes having stubborn little kids on their ship?
2. If the person doesnt speak english and just goes gunning with a pilot class.
3. Captain Phoenix.
4. When you notice there is a screamer (random guy who flames or screams all over the chat).
5. When you have a Wanna-be-cool-kid (thinks hes cool and pro, but guess what its just talk and no balls)
6. When you have a White-kid-who-wanna-be-black-rapper (no comment needed on that)
7. When you have a little cursing brat on your ship (GTFO!)
8. When people on your ship start to speak russian and dont understand a word english (same with other languages)
9. Stalkers!
10. When someone is so bad that you want to cry in a corner and that same person wants to fly with you again.

Most of these problems could be solves with a "mute" button instead of kicking people, furthermore

1) try talking to them and explain in a calm and concise manner why you want them to do something.

2) Try looking up a translator on the internet and message them during the wait for the next game

3) Don't understand this sorry

4) See mute button idea

5) See mute button idea

6) See mute button idea

7) See mute button idea

See translator option, you can't just kick someone based on their native tongue!

9) Try blocking them in the social section and then just ignore them, if you are an adult you should be able to put up with this.

10) Why not try helping that person and teaching them so that they improve and then you will want them to fly with you again.

Think positive 

Your list did not make you seem smarter than anyone else, I did mine in a list to show you that.

The Gallery / Re: the YOLO. Why not.

« on: May 21, 2013, 12:45:42 am »

My regret today.

Clicking on a thread that used "YOLO" in the title without being apart of a joke or used in a ironic manner.

I should sleep more often, these kinds of mistakes I make shouldn't be tolerated.

Yep same here, near 6am where I am, this is a sign for me to head off, night everyone.

All sounds very interesting, might get difficult to identify teams though, might need to introduce a new marker for your allied ship if we are going to have changeable ship colours, can't wait to make my ship look all pretty though.

Nice guide, a good few things I picked up despite playing for 2 weeks, nice to know the moonshine and rubber mallet repair per second info.

Unfortunately, that info is out of date. As of 1.2 moonshine does more damage than the mallet can repair.

Darn, Oh well, the rest of the guide was still useful, thanks for the clarification.

I agree with the near certain overuse of a kick button that some people will use for the wrong reasons, maybe a system where 3/4 members of the crew need to agree to the kick or maybe even 3/4 or 5/6 captains etc, I only say this as I had a guy join and just jump off my ship all game yelling "weeeeeeee" in the chat, still won but it sure did not help. Maybe just a way to downvote people so that they can be alerted to CA members or something where they can either be helped or politely disciplined depending on what is needed.

Feedback and Suggestions / Appearance and class settings

« on: May 20, 2013, 11:19:52 pm »

Hi this is my first post here on the Guns Of Icarus Online Forum but I have a suggestion about the appearance of character and the role of character, specifically regarding how the sex of a character affects classes, I play a male captain but a female gunner and engineer and as far as I am aware I need to go into my "look" options and change my gender in order to get access to my costumes for that specific gender and class, I recommend the ability to set a gender for each class so it is easier to be the class and gender you want, So I could set my gunner to female, and my pilot to male, so that it is easier and faster to change your appearance for the next battle.

Thanks for your time

Sir Hawkeye
