This sub-forum is for suggestions, right? Well this is a suggestion. I understand that there are more pressing matters that need to be attended to at the moment but that doesn't mean that other things should be left undiscussed. We can still talk about it and the developers will take care of it when they can/want to.

Sorry, but implementing this is just modifying one character (not one line, one character) from "0" to "1". It's so easy, a caveman could do it. We've spent longer talking than it would take to press backspace and hit the "1" key.

Sorry, didn't mean to be aggressive. I just voiced my opinion.

Not only.. as i said one would also have to check first if such a chance would allow bad effects like spamming. If so one would have to find a way around that. If not, then ofc the change itself is easy.

Didn't we already say that this is in the code anyway? The server just has to activate it? So what's the big deal? =P
RE: Ability to change votes in game - esteel - 03-30-2010
I really thought i was kinda clear enough.. I'm not sure if one can misuse that option to SPAM (iirc the server displays a message to all players when someone gave a vote).. so if one has checked that this is NOT true (maybe i'm just remember something the wrong way) OR writes some code to prevent misuse THEN it can be enabled without problem..
RE: Ability to change votes in game - Erusavion - 03-30-2010
I wasn't replying to you esteel. I was just saying that it's not a big deal to implement.
RE: Ability to change votes in game - esteel - 03-31-2010
Yeah, but someone needs time and do it
RE: Ability to change votes in game - Roanoke - 03-31-2010
I just checked, it doesn't seem like the server tells people who voted what, unless this is an git feature.

What? We're not talking about the server telling people who voted what, we're saying that it should allow people to change their vote.

Unless vote notification is a git feature, modifying one character is all it's going to take to make votes changeable.

Oh, I didn't really understand your post. Now it makes more sense.
