[quote]To prevent spectators spoiling games for players playing them, would it be possible to implement a function, that when some spectator wants to write something that even players can see, at first the message appears only to other spectators, then there is like a 10 sec delay when other spectators can press a button that prevents that message from showing to players playing the game, and only after this interval it appears to players?[/quote]

What happens when there is only one spectator in the room? What reasons do people have to write things as a spectator in FFA that players can see?

[quote]As an example of good solution against spec cheats: Famous DotA game has a mechanic that plays current game to spectators with 30-60 seconds delay. This delay eliminates any possibility of helping spectators to match participants (via chat, discord any other audio chats), but this is deep engine feature, don't think Spring could provide it(?).[/quote]

Given that rejoining an ongoing game as a spectator involves watching and catching up on the entire game it seems like it should be theoretically possible to just... stop catching up a bit early, but I have been told in the past by people familiar with the Spring engine that it would not be easy in practice.

[quote]In my opinion the whole thread is about a disagreement on what are the most generic rules of the FFA. Is it fine if you communicate via another channel (voice versus chat)? Is it fine if you play to support one specific player without planning to win yourself? Is it fine to resign but give strange orders to units?

[b]Any answer is OK (there is no good/bad), but people playing together and thinking the answers are different is a recipe for disaster.[/b][/quote]

I
do
not
think
that
this
is
entirely
what
the
previous
thread
was
about,
but
it
is
certainly
a
pertinent
comment
about
how
we
should
move
forward.
