You can use #spectator which allows you as many people as you want.
Just make it so we can use osu! in-game chat like it was IRC. Let us create channels and moderate them. Some groups of users who have enough knowledge to do so already do this on IRC and don't even use osu! chat. If a channel is 100% private it shouldn't need any kind of moderation. Of course, peppy should have administrator privileges and access to every channel just in case. But really if I make a chat channel with 10 friends and we want to talk about porn then why do you mind, we already do this for talking "forbidden matters" on #spectator or other chat platforms.theowest wrote:
Saten and I had an interesting conversation about this.
There must be an limit of some sort. Or else this would start to require moderating if things happen. I think one of the reason why people don't like to use the multiplayer chat is because there's only 8 slots. but can't someone just leave in case they're not having the conversation anymore? Not even #osu has conversations with over 8 people at the same time.
but don't get me wrong. This would be amazing for me with my closest friends since we're all connected in a way and we'd all love to discuss with each other in private, together sometimes.
Perhaps but its limitation comes in when you want to spec someone else you get booted from that chat.Alpaka wrote:

Yeah but then if you actually want to play/map/mod rather than spec someone, you leave the chat.Alpaka wrote:

Wow, I've been wanting this. And finally here are people with the same idea \:D/ Support.Ephemeral wrote:
This would be useful for IRC modding collab maps.
If the channels are created by users they can be self moderated by the user who created the channel by simply restricting the channel to be invite-only. The creator of the channel could have the power to silence users within the channel, remove users from the channel, blacklist users from the channel, limit the size of the channel, set whether invites can come only from the creator of the channel or from any player in the channel, and pass control of the channel to another user within the channel. Self-contained, non-persistent, private, and self-moderated. I don't see any problem with it other than implementation, and while this obviously isn't a super critical thing to have it would be a really nice feature if it were implemented that would surely see plenty of use.theowest wrote:

You've hit the nail on the head. By default on any IRC server you are allowed to freely create rooms on (or at east every one I've been on) when you create a new room, you are appointed mod immediately, giving you full moderation privilege across the room. Hell, technically speaking someone could actually write a an IRC moderation bot that can log into bancho and moderate their room automatically. It would involve having the bot log in as an existing account, or require making a new account, but it stands to reason that this is perfectly doable and probably a good idea if private chat rooms were to be allowed.NarrillNezzurh wrote:

Why should private chat be a supporter only feature?FireFoxZX wrote:
its a very good idea but it should either have a people limit or be a donator feature, either way there should be some type of moderation or moderation group to supervise the system. if it does come to that i will apply for the PMGroup moderation PMGM for short. it would be a good feature regardless of the complications and it would greatly enhance gameplay.

That's not a valid reason for it to be a supporter only feature. Being a supporter doesn't mean that he/she won't abuse a system.FireFoxZX wrote:
not player moderation im considering another moderator group entirely
and it should be a supporter only feature due to the possible misuse of this feature.
if anyone will be doing that, it'd be the chat moderatorsFireFoxZX wrote:
not player moderation im considering another moderator group entirely i have read this topic thoroughly i am suggesting another type of chat mod that can group jump to check on things also it should be a donator feature to limit its use so mods are not overwhelmed
i disagree. this should be an option for all players, not just supportersFireFoxZX wrote:

it would be difficult to moderate for all players supporters or not and if we just added the chat moderators it would be no different than a new chat roomdeadbeat wrote:
