voice is only for people helping the member of 4PP who is playing the game and besides once one person gets voiced it becomes "VOICE ME PLOX I AR TEH BEST VIEWR VOICE NAO"

And those people can be timed. The mods decide who is voiced, it shouldn't be "I asked for voice nao gimme itr!!"

You haven't shown a reason to not voice people that will actually make chat not suck; Remember a couple weeks ago, when the mods were trying out voiced viewers on Wednesday, and it went pretty well, and not one person asked to be voiced, except a "regular" and only when an already voiced person was leaving. And that day went awesome. And then they threw it out the window, for whatever reason.

I feel like people that should be voiced, much like 4PP seems to view it anyway, are people that aren't complete assholes and won't abuse it. It's really up to the mods who they want to voice..like Brad said, they can voice who they think is right and won't abuse it. If it seems like playing favorites then..eh. It happens everywhere though.

I think the only reason why people are getting voiced less is cause they sometimes brag about it or even abuse it.

Again, yes, it's the mods job to do it, but I'd like to reach some form of consistency; Either all of them allow voiced viewers and don't mess with people that other mods voiced (unless it's abused or whatnot), or none of them do. Having some voice people, others not, and then the ones that don't removing voice from people that got it from another mod is just stupid.

I think that's something the mods have to do. They should talk to the other mods and come to some kind of agreement. I understand that it can be annoying, it's happend to me also.

We just have to wait and see, Dark.

I wouldn't mind having it be like it was a few months ago where a lot of the regs were voiced. It did get to the point where there were so many voiced users that slow mode was totally useless though. >_>

[Joyo17]

How about a list of people that should be voiced?

[mrfabulous]

That's a really good idea, Joyo. The mods could come up with a list of people they thing should be be voiced during broadcasts, and PM people if they're on the list or not.

[SnowOwl96]

I agree with joyo. I'm going to have to make a request though. Please do not voice me or make me a mod ever. I am not a hardcore gamer and chances are slim that I have played even half of the games that the guys broadcast. Also I would be a sucky mod. Trust me on this. I don't like to stick out, i'd rather blend in with all the cool people. Plus I know being a mod or voiced veiwer is an honor but I don't see me being good at it.

[Icarus94]

i gave up on the whole voiced thing after a while, a few months back David voiced e, then JTV f'ed up and i lost my voice, so david revoiced me, then the mods took away all voices, then voicing came back, so david rerevoiced me, but then i lost it when jtv reset again, so yeah i iss being voiced because i usually help with puzzles but lately i havent able to

but i like the list idea, i suggest we start with vets, maybe put it to a poll

I don't understand why some people think being voiced is the best thing since whipped cream in a can. Being voiced doesn't make you any different than the rest of the chatters, all it means is that you can talk more frequently than the other chatters. Sure, it's nice, but only people who have the mentality and intelligence not to be an idiot about it can be voiced. I agree though, that there should be a list of people the mods would like to voice and then they all come to an agree on it. I'm not saying all the people who are voiced are idiots, I'm not saying anybody who has been voiced is an idiot, it's just I know there are people out there who just want to be voiced so they can get closer to the 4PP guys which is totally stupid for the reason that the 4PP guys won't go "HEY, YOU'RE VOICED, HAY." it doesn't happen. Besides, why are some people so obsessed with the guys? They're normal, every day people just like us. It's nice to play games with them sometimes, but it's not like you should try to climb the ladder here JUST to be their friend.

They hate suck ups too.

Blah.

Oh god please no. It's bad enough of a hiarchy in the chat already... Adding an A-List of people will turn 4pp into the most unfair of chats if it isn't already.

[Miharu Yuki]

But the thing is, there shouldn't even be a hierarchy. Everybody is the same in my opinion, from the chatters [not the idiots..] to the mods to the 4PP guys. Perhaps we should get rid of the voiced viewers all together then? I don't know.

[pennz0il]

Just because one person is upset we shouldn't remove the priveledge for everyone. He'res how it goes

1. If you are voiced, the mods trust you not to be stupid, and say I voiced you it was probably to help post links to the rules. That does not mean to spam the rules like a mad man..

2. If you are not voiced, sorry. Deal with it. You are there to watch they show anyway, so enjoy the podcast for the minute you have to wait

This shouldn't be so much of an issue >___>

[Miharu Yuki]

Good point Pennz.

There really isn't a need for a voiced viewers list then. owo
