Could we have these small changes? Add an option to not show global chat at startup. Save global chat chosen colour selection, in user settings. Global chat is an easily verifiable source of casual misogynistic statements. In order to avoid the constant barbs, we switch it off, however this has to be done every time we launch the game reminding us how much BS is out there. If it stayed off we’d play more. As a soft off, I select the grey (just before the red) so that the contrast with the dark background is reduced. This not only looks better but allows me to ignore global chat most of the time. Unfortunately this setting does not persist, please save it. Add a “Block Voice” option to the list of _Inner Thoughts_ options on another player. Have this only active while wearing a helmet, for immersion, and blocking only prox comms only. Add 1.”Stop” Halt Hand, 2. “Warning” Finger Shake,3. Arms Crossed 4. Fingers in ears; “/backoff1,2,3,4” warning emotes. Verbal sexual harassment is commonplace in high traffic areas mostly toward players with female avatars, such as the GRIMhex terminal. Please provide tools to deal with this in game. Currently the only way to avoid this sexual harassment is to log off or server swap. Please allow us to mute these players. The mute should expire automatically in 5min to 1 year, and should extend itself exponentially (doubling?), on re-application. Optionally; by any player, but apply for all players who have muted the harasser. This is easily developed requiring only 3 extra data fields per player, Date muteExpirery, and Duration nextMutePeriod, along with a myActiveProxMutesList The above emote can be used to warn harassers that they are about to be muted.
