So… Sometimes when global mute is on, I want someone to duel me in build, but I can't type in chat! So what I was thinking, was if you could use a command such as /say or /speak, and it would show a list of things that you could say while global mute was on. Of course there would be a timer In between using this command, so that there wouldn't be spam during the mute. Some words that you could have show up that you could use could be like "duel me" "gg" "good fight" etc. Pretty much just do the command then click on the statement that you want to say, and it would say it for you in chat. There could be like a 20 second interval between using this (or more seconds) so that there wouldn't be spam. Another good instance is if there is ever a situation like when Star Wars first came out. People spoiling the movie here and there in chat, causing people who haven't seen the movie yet to become very aggravated. If there is ever a situation like this again, you could simply just use global mute, and have these commands /say or /speak to communicate in a chat filtered manner. Using global mute during these situations would stop people from spoiling the movie in the first place, and the /say or /speak would help them communicate anyways. +1 or -1?? Any changes I should make to this idea? Or just simply throw it out? Comment below!

Hmm, interesting idea…

+1, I guess.

Could be abused by people planning at the same time, then all instantaneously clicking a chat thingy. Maybe add an option for mods to silence that as well.

If you want to tell them gg do not spam the chat just message them, this idea will literally make global mute pointless. When it's muted, it's muted, and it's muted for a reason

Ok so I guess it wouldn't work well for global mutes that are caused by spam or something, but for the Star Wars spoilers thing I mentioned, it could work. I mean just keep global mute on until we are allowed to spoil, and we will still be able to communicate with the /say or /speak, and the chat would be 100% spoiler free, but this would only apply if this instance would ever happen again, maybe when Star Wars 8 comes out?? xd
