Commander chat suppression
Solution :
Create a separate /say chat only for commander with a different color in which you can only type a pre-selection of simple and useful command for commanding.
Example : “Follow me”, “Build this”, “Take supplies”, “Stop! Wait!”
And… Done!
Unfortunately, as a commander, I have to repeat what I say in the /say chat to make sure people are building the weapons for the seige, taking all of the supply from the camp, or even switching seige targets and unfortunately, much of the time, I find myself suppressed because I repeat myself over and over and over again.
People don’t join squads often and having the ability to not be suppressed in your squad may be useful but until you have a sizeable amount of people in your squad, it is useless.

This is exactly why I propose this solution : The special commander /say chat won’t be suppressed and can’t be used by gold spammer because you can only type pre-selected command.
Since it is like /say chat, everyone around the commander should be able to see the messages in a little bubble above the head of the commander and in the chat. No need to join squad or anything.
Also, you can repeat as much as you want the basics command that you need to repeat non-stop (follow me, take supply, build) without being suppress.
Like I said —> problem solved.
Most of the reasons /say chat destroys squad in terms of usefulness every time, are that people will actually read the chat bubble rather than their chat bar, and it’s impossible to get people in your squad.
As of a while I’ve just said ‘screw this’ and moved to guild group and TS commanding entirely, you want to not wipe/know what we’re doing, what’s going on/win? Get the hell on TS then!
