Custom voice message spamming

Post by wanker »

Is there any way to limit the amount a player can use the custom voice messages? The problem is that when the server has lot of people in it, players intend to spam. This really bothers me, because I like to listen music while I play. I don't have anything against the funny custom voice commands, I sometimes use them myself, but they are tactically irrelevant and should not be allowed to use so often and freely. One command per player in minute should be ok. Here is a screenshot of what I mean.

to console:
/seta cg_novoicechats 2
This will disable sounds of global voicechat. [not teamchat]

/seta cg_novoicechats 1
This wil disable sounds of all voicechat. [teamchat too]

/seta cg_novoichats 0
This will enable sounds of voicechat. [In case you want them back on]

Thnx for your help, but like I said, I like the custom sounds. I just don't understand why people have to spam them. I find it a bit weird that the server has vote calling disabled for regular players, like myself, because it allegedly leads to vote spamming but the voice spamming is completely tolerated. Why not make the custom sounds available for Himalians only, like vote calling.

Spamming of that extent should be muted by admins. There is no perfect solution to this. If the voice chats would be limited with 1/minute it would affect the teamchats as well. There is no way to make a distinction between custom chats and other chats.
