Many might not know this but global was changed to level 13+ every under 13 level holders is "stuck" in newplayers chat

Newplayers chat should obviously be for newplayers only. But its also a shame to punish level holders to fix thisV

Update: theres now an "exceptions list" removing players selectivly from newplayers chat. Now this would be a big win.. buuuut you just lose newplayers chat and do NOT gain global. I feel this is unfair of course since my enjoyment in torn comes from level holding and its the same for many others.

 

 SOLUTION: Revert back to the old age limit or as WD suggested 45-60 days. Or some sort of Active age (may not work for people who rarely come on though) or make it so this "excptions list" gives global?

 

WOO FREEDOM: - Changed New Player chat restrictions to force serious level-holders out

The changes have been reverted! So we're back to this.

Mentions: Patch list #33 : 20/02/2018

R+ It doesn't make sense for someone with an age of 1870 to be in new player's chat. With the ability to level hold, it should be based on the player's true level and not their displayed level. Or based on their age, as it was before. 45 or 60 days as per Wardog's suggestion sounds good to me.

NPC is supposed to be a place for people who are new to the game to learn together, to make friends and rivals in their first few days that they can grow along side with. It shouldn't be the level holder's chat. OP is a 5 year old experienced player and he along with other level holders like him certainly shouldn't be in New Player's Chat.

Heres a holder who ABUSES his powers and baits the new players into attacking them DISCOURAGING them from playing the game!

Because if a level 1 can beat them theres no hope for success?

Its not fair for us to soak up defends from new players.. Set us free!

It would be nice if NPC had a day limit like it previously had, I agree with WD's suggestion of 45-60 days old

Stop holding at 6 and 9 you weirdos.

In all seriousness, its a shame this has happened. I agree with the suggestion of 45-60 days.

New Player Chat should be for that -- thus limited by age, not level. If a player only plays rarely and comes on for assistance and is days older than allowed, there are other venues to get questions answered.

R+ this change.
Mlkey [1915577]

going buy a players age doesnt help either , when you have people that stop playing the games for months / years and then start playing again

R+, I think the days should all be active days, though, and maybe the trigger to Global could be time played and not days...any noob can sign up and forget about the game for a couple months and come back asking lots of questions.
