Horn Spam


Recommended Posts

Suggestion Description: a thing ingame where you can only press horn for like 2 minutes max and then you get a 10 min cool down then you can press your horn again for 2 mins max

Why should it be added?: cos its amazing and it'll stop horn spam

 

k thx bai

I agree, but I think 2mins is far too long. Horn spam starts from like 10seconds, so for a constant horn of 2mins it too long. Maybe 30seconds, then cool period.

Hello @Herr Panda  this is a good idea but 2 minutes are too long  to the highest 15-30 seconds however, does this already not give possibly in the multiplayer? I have only seen, however, with some players the symbol of the horn there appears no tone 

 
Sry for my English!
 
 
 
Best Regards

How about only allowing the horn to beep for 5 seconds max per 2 clicks of h rather than kicking?  That would stop the spamming for sure

The title of the proposal: Protect horn spam
Offer description: If the horn button is pressed down 5 seconds or more for the last minute, automatically kick the player.
Why should it be Added?: This will prevent the spam mountain, especially in the traffic jam on the roads of Duisburg - Calais and others. Disable using TAB of course true, but for violators it is a small cool period.

Great idea. Although I agree with the majority that 2 minutes is too long. @oolala11's suggestion is more practical :)

It has been heavily discussed that users should only use the horn to warn other players of danger not to say hi. Flashing your headlights is a much more logical alternate option to do this.

Five (5) seconds should be long enough, following a two (2) minutes cool-down phase.

 

I've been thinking about this and personally I would make it a 5 minute cool down phase. 2 minutes seems too short of a time before re enabling the horn usage.

This would be a great idea, but then two horns must be counted as one (the main horn and the additional airhorns on your truck), but the thing is with airhorns you have a 3 second delay until it's finishing it's tone. So if the spam prevention is set on 5 seconds, you'll get kicked for using your airhorns too while you only wanted to end the tone of your horns when honking.. Isn't that unfair? 

 

Now we're discussing it anyway (I don't want to go off-topic ofcourse, my apologies if I do I'm not that familiar with forums at all) would a cool down in text messages be great too for that same reason (spam prevention)? Like the YouTube system in livestream chats where you can send 5 messages at it's most and automatically be set on a time-out (or cool down) when doing it in a row? I see many spammers around Rotterdam or other busy roads promoting their VTC's and/or YouTube/Twitch channel who are dangerously spamming the chats causing an even further drops of framerates and really annoying if you're right in the middle of a dangerous situation or traffic jam..
