    ET's don't understand that 50% of the players are afk, 20% do DM/TDM, 20% are questing and only 10% go inside the event channel so even if they announce it 50 times, playercount won't go any upper than that.

    I suppose it cannot do any harm to have such a checkbox in the options under 1337, I leave this one up to the admins to decide.

    Even though we all know 10x is largely exaggerated, I'll give an explanation from my point of view.

    1st notice: '*Event* @ the event channel': This is used to let players know which event is being hosted, this is said at the beginning of every event, because there might be people who want to play certain events. Which means if they play the 1st and dont play the 2nd, they will still be able to know which event is going to be 3rd.

    2nd notice: This could be either '2nd call for *Event*', '*Event* is starting in ~ minutes' or '*Event* is starting now! This is used to let players know the event is starting in a certain amount of time. The '2nd call for *Event*' is used when there are less than 6 players in the event, in which case there might be some people who haven't seen the notice and still want to join.

    3rd notice: '*Event* is still going on!. I only ever use this when the event has less than 8 players or if the event has been going on for a while.

    I personally don't think that these uses of the admin wall are annoying in the slightest. They're used with a purpose and is definitely not classified as spamming. However, if the devs are willing to spend their time on making a checkbox to toggle the notices, I'm all for it.

    You make it seem like we spam announcements for every event.
    The way my pattern goes is:

    1) <eventname> @ EVENT CHANNEL
    2) <eventname> starting in 1 minute!

    Eventually, if there are not many players

    3) Last call / Join now / More chances to win if you join early / Late join is off / Double points / some funny sht
    and perhaps <eventname> is still going on.



    Regarding Bunny's reply on Castiel, it's a good example of what the ETs shouldn't do, but I can vouch that Cast has understood the issue and stopped with the 'sixth call' announcements.
