Declined JB Spring Cleaning (overtalk plugin adjustment) (1 Viewer)

[Bananawastaken]

Since this thread is over 8 months old, I would like to gauge feedback on adjusting the overtalk plugin with new regulars.

The result of that thread was the overtalk plugin getting a duration and cooldown, since we have had more time to play with it + new group of regulars I would like to reassess community feedback.

Should we rather just ask kevin if its possible to add these implementations before even making another poll asking if we still want it?

Sure we still want it, what point does it make if kevin isn’t adding the update?

People leaving it on is less of a problem these days since not many people use it, but it still happens

You don’t need more than 45 seconds to prove a point with people that are overtaking at all.

warden's abusing overtalk i have not seen with the exception of 1 warden who leaves it on the whole rounds ends up dying and it causes the system to bug
overtalk is not on but players are told they are muted because overtalk is on

with that said however they is no issue with overtalk abuse given we can just report it when required
for now I have voted NO

Most of the time overtalk is used too much, its a complete accident, so I think the timer is a good idea. HOWEVER, the other times overtalk is used too much is when there is a mic spammer, so I think that the cooldown is a stupid idea. Warden should be allowed to reactivate overtalk immediately.

Agreed compintent wardens don't abuse it with ill intent (accidents happen) and most wardens will enable overtalk to prevent mic spammers in short terms while the issue gets handled (admin requests/mutes etc etc)

I have once in the last 3 weeks asked a warden to turn off overtalk, and they did. I don't think overtalk is problematic.

I honestly prefer it like it currently is, but the cooldown/timer is a fair compromise for others that don't hold my opinion.
Dunno what other timezones look like, but I think I've had maybe one or two instances of a warden leaving it on more than a minute in recent memory.

I personally enjoy being able to toggle it without worry of a cooldown as I will use it to give important orders when others are overtalking, and then turn it back off.
So personally I might use it 3 or more times in a couple of minutes just to give clear orders when needed, and a cooldown has me somewhat concerned with that.
I would be more in favor of a timer. Maybe like 1:30 of being able to toggle overtalk on per round? Idunno spitballing here.

I prefer it as is, but I understand some of the complaints we had before with the plugin. Overtalk is unironically the best addition we've had on JB in all my time of playing, and everyone can agree that the pros vastly outweigh the cons. If others express interest in modifications then I am all for it, but as of now I prefer the status quo.

I feel like overtalk is ok as it is, it lets reds know what the warden is saying and don't have to ask for a repeat.

yeah going to need to agree with @PistolPoppinSince02 here its becoming a common place for reds just to scream or do something to make alot of noise though the mic making it very hard to hear the warden
(what did hawk1 say....) its annoying and i think if the overtalk was to be restricted we would see an increase in mic spam reports , freekill reports and general confusions as a whole in tickets.

Plugin will remain as is
