No battle cry in General

[TheMoneyMaker]

There's no battle cry in General chat channel, and that's fine, don't need people accidentally shouting their battle cry over and over in the General channel. But I noticed that the reason given back when attempting it.....

 

Incorrect format: try /general  (Command synonyms: /gen, /z /general)

 

It looks like trying to keep the battle cry out of General created an error for trying to do something in the wrong way. We don't need an error message, we should have text telling us not to use F10 in Gen.

I'm not one to try using battlecry at all, but does it do the same thing when you try to use it in /help or /lfg?

Politeness remember!

If you are creating macros, never use "say".

"say" makes the macro send the text to whatever you have selected.

Please use "local" or - better yet - "team" when you want to put a text message in a marco.

This stops you from accidentally spamming your macro message in channels that you don't intend to send the message.

 

"Have a taste of my mystic blade, Gravedigger Chopper!"

"Have a taste of my mystic blade, Gravedigger Chopper!"

"Have a taste of my mystic blade, Gravedigger Slammer!"

"Have a taste of my mystic blade, Death Doll!"

 

... can get old even on /team pretty quickly. On /local it is only annoying to those local to your character.

Anywhere else? People will be sending you /tells or just putting you on ignore before too long.

Can you elaborate about how getting this error message has impacted you?
