#osu bugs me.
RandomJibberish
If we closed #osu it'd bring all the noobs to #modHelp

We must not alert them of our whereabouts

EDIT: Ohwait I misunderstood. Support.

Good idea.

Just make a secret channel. :<

Anyway, support.

Nono, Krisom, we have something to think about here. If #osu is closed, sure, we'll have no idiots, but we'll be screwed if they find #modhelp.

Screwed.

...the request is to close the tab, not the chat itself.

Aka, @osu will still exist, but if you never open it, you'll be able to close it.

(that's what I understood at least...)
James2250
Yeah we are talking closing the tab here, not the channel (closing the channel wouldn't solve anything)
Agnes
Ah... hmm. Then it might work. Support. (inb4 Rukarioman)

Support 8-)

Methinks peppy's !announce wouldn't work if #osu weren't open. :v

Anyway, what's the big deal? You can have other tabs open, osu! remembers the last active channel upon logout (so you don't even have to SEE #osu when you login again), and if you don't want to see chat in the first place, then you can just not hit f8.

Also, think of all the newbies that will accidentally close the channel and not be able to use their brain to open it again. *imagines Help forum spam as usual* "halp i cant tie my own shoes ): ): ):"

If it doesn't pass, then find an alternative to get the trolls out of there.

since all we really want is for us not to have idiots in our chat then i'd much rather go for a private channel thing where we can choose who gets to be in it

Split #osu to #osu and #english? Why not?

That would mean we will have 2 channels full of spammers/idiots to moderate.

Ehh.. no, thanks, we have enough with just #osu <.<

I would support this if we're suggesting to change #osu to #english, but as Derekku already said, probably peppy announces wouldn't be visible if people closes the channel.

So... no, I don't support this.

Well but who really knows on how the announcements really work. maybe it's a BanchoBot thing whihc sends it to every player but well, we never know if peppy doesn't clear this up.
If the announcements are binded to #osu then I won't say a word if this gets denied, but otherwise I see no problem why to not make it closable.

make #announcements uncloseable, and let #osu be closeable.

All i have to say is...

Support, it's annoying with all the spammers and trolls
peppy
I fail to see the logic here (and am reminded why giving players too much control can be a bad thing). Could everyone stop replying with "support" and give reasons as to why this needs to happen? Not reasons like "osu! has trolls", as you can avoid this by... you know... not reading it.

The only advantage I can see is slightly more space on the tab bar.


Also try and think sensibly when choosing a subject for feature request posts fixed).

#english for native english speakers (like other nationalities have their chats by now)
#osu for global logical (or not) discussions (GD/OT)

Another reason are Highlights ..
for example i have my name on highlight (alex) , i got highlighted many times when i play,

and i support about space, i hate when i go on second linee...

#osu is english channel, and i always see people talk in other language (like chinese or other) i think #English or dunno will be awesome D:

This is not a valid point, people talking other languages are redirected their proper channel, if they continue to talk in #osu they will be silenced.

This is infinite.

Your user name is displayed (and thus can be highlighted) only by which channels you're present in, correct? Closing #osu would allow you to prevent people from highlighting you except only from those channels you actually wish to be in, and your online status visibility can also be limited only to the channels you want to be a part of. I may have worded the latter half poorly: by being able to close #osu, you can limit who can see you online. If I'm only in the #french channel, then only my friends and the #french channel would be able to see that I was logged in.

tl;dr:
- limit highlighting only to channels you care about
- limit online status only to channels you care about

Wouldn't that only apply for irc, though? You're still shown as on at the online users bar no matter what channel you're in.

I disagree with this request, really, I see no reason other than "#osu is full of mean people, I don't like them". Just don't look at the room if you don't like it. If you have highlights set that are often said in #osu and it annoys you, change those. It just seems very unnecessary and will further split the community.
nate_old
Why is it necessary for #osu to be uncloseable? Is it a technical limitation or a personal preference? Is it because of announcements?

If it's necessary to make announcements, then personally I feel it would be better to make #lobby uncloseable and make the announcements in #lobby. Isn't #lobby the general channel? Also, it's not very parallel to have the English channel (#osu) to be open all the time while the other language channels are not.

But I'll withhold my support for now; I simply don't know enough information to sway either way (I would have to know the answers to the questions above)

oh god, no. #lobby is the channel that opens when you enter multiplayer and just gets filled with "join my game plzz" spam. #osu is the "general" channel.

Do you know how hard it is to NOT ignore #osu?
Once you look in there, like if somebody highlights and starts a conversation with you, it's impossible to not pay attention.

And of course, there are times when I want to close #osu and be left alone to play in peace without having people go E-HOOKER or whatever.

I'm also in support of changing #osu to #english and NOT having #osu/#english be the default. If Bancho can automatically analyze based on a person's location which channel would be best for them [#spanish, #korean, etc.], i'd be quite a happy person. [at least in theory it sounds easy but I don't know much about programming]

Make everyone go into #lobby by default and then people can go to their desired channel.

Rename #osu to #english

It strikes me as strange that the general channel is English only.

This is what I was hinting towards in my post I guess, if that's not workable then there's no reason to change it I suppose

Right click to leave the channel from the channel select.
deadbeat
i still find it funny you didn't know about that xD
also as a footnote: right clicking on any open channel in the channel selection(the above image) will close it. not just #osu
TheVileOne
Interesting how there was so much opposition from the admins on thing. I mean really, what reason do you have to be able to close #osu.

I'm not English. end of story. xD (I am English)
laport
you don't leave the channel, you just don't see it. you can still get highlighted after "leaving" it that way
MillhioreF
It still doesn't take up tab space, and I actually like being highlighted when I'm not there (because it means people are talking about me and I wanna be there)
