    Default [Suggestion] Regarding Mute w/some item ideas!


    I would like a message to be posted on chat when someone is muted and when you PM them, you get a message saying how long they have left.

    That is all. XD

    SIDE NOTE: Maybe we can have a Dunce Hat like someone mentioned or a Space Chimp Monkey pets on our backs doing the see no evil, speak no evil, and hear no evil signs on us. XD

    Wow, that is a pretty good suggestion! I'm not saying "wow" because I assume you are not full of great suggestions... I'm saying "wow" because I can't believe I didn't think of it!! lol!!

    I just do the crying emote over and over again until someone says "Muted?" then do the "Yes" emote. Telling a story without words is what we mimes do best! That, and pulling on invisible ropes and being trapped in invisible boxes.

    Did a search for this and got a few different threads among the tons of people complaining about being muted. Seems it's been brought up before, but so far nothing has been implemented

    I'm sorry but that sounds backwards. You're happy, so you dance. You're sad, so you cry. Being muted isn't exactly fun....

    When I get muted (Not on purpose), I run around in circles, cry, and go around guild hall without armor. Still no one noticed lol.

    Should put like..a dunce-cap vanity on our heads while we're muted. Now THAT would be funny haha. Dunno if STS would want to code that though...plus I feel like people would get muted on purpose for the vanity cap, even if only for 5 minutes lol

    I don't have all of the emotes just the ones without having to get with plat so I just smh with the "No way" emote. XD

    I like the dunce hat idea as well! That would make me laugh hard each time. xD

    WIN! Loving this, though it would be abused and im sure if your muted a certain amount of times you may get "Look at me, Look at me im going to get a Dunce hat " Then.... they disappear from the face of B* with a msg BAN! ;D

    Still trying to comprehend how 2k+ can die from Barrels O.o

    Meh... Everything is abused in SL lol. XD However, I still like the dunce hat idea. Quite hilarious as it may be, I would get hella laughs with it.

    Maybe even a Space Chimp Pet on our backs doing the hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil signs. xD

    Yeah the unexpected (and oft unexplained) mute can damage the community. Perhaps rather than an out of the blue mute, there were some other disincentive which might not be subject to abuse and which was more understandable by other players. Twice, i was having very good conversations with ppl and they were unexpectedly muted and i had no idea. I think until we see the muting resolved the community needs to implement a *universal* mute representation.

    Any suggestions? Emotes might not work...for obvious reasons. Perhaps a muted character could remove all gear except for their helmet and run face-forward into a corner to show ppl that they have been stricken dumb? This might get the message across and is somewhat an unexpected type of action.

    Lets get some ideas and propagate a solution to this in the general forums!

    When I get muted I log off. And go do something else. Problem solved.
