bump! Still think it's a great idea, admins need to see this. Woud be perfect as alot of people get 'idled' out when browsing the forums/other sites.

takes two minutes to log back in, not needed IMO.

I've been logged out a few times for idling because I was watching clan games. Very annoying when you don't get to see the rest of the game and then people have to invite you back after you've logged back in. Short reminder would solve this.
Good idea in my opinion.

keep a private message up with the guy your watching, will solve the problem if you speak

LOVE THIS.

why do i want to speak with him? A lot of people don't like to speak since they take clan games quite seriously.
Why no warning noise anyway?

Is there a way we can have the NO SOUND option ticked (just because i cant stand the sound of the balls clattering) but still be able to keep all the other NOISE notifications switched on please?

this is not about "balls clattering around" its regarding the 20mins idle log out warning

on options orchid in the game, should be an option for no sound.

when nick updates server he puts server restarting in 20/15/10/5 minutes could do that on here but a sound and saying you have 5/2/1 minute left (please communicate with the game to reset timer).

something like that?

She was meaning, no 'in-game' sound as in the noise of the billiard balls going everywhere and potting but still have private message noise alert etc.



I think..

there is options for them also just untick them all in the sound part

Ah ok, thanks guys... i'll give it a try

EDIT: Ok i have tried that, but the other alerts don't work unless i have the allow sound option ticked and then i have to put up the the noise of the balls clattering! I was just hoping there was a way just to turn the sound of the balls off?

Sorry if i have taken this off topic, was just trying to get an answer on a similar topic without startig a new thread!

Thanks

try allow sound unticked see if it works.

You have to have the main "Allow Sound"(1st tab) option ticked for any of the sounds to work. Untick that and you will have no sound at all regardless of what is ticked or not in the sound options(5th tab).

I believe the sound of the balls smashing, hitting the cue ball and sinking a ball comes under the main sound option alone. Therefore you can't disable that unless you have no sound at all.

Thanks Joker!


If Nick reads this i'd like to know if maybe he could introduce that option somewhere down the line maybe!

Thanks for everyones help!

Still want to hear Nick's view on this subject and if its possible to do ?

hes away for now, maybe on holiday im not sure.
