Global Option

What if we could have the option to turn off global. Some parents might appreciate having the choice to do that in the game. Some kids might like to have the option too. Ya I may sound weird and crazy but it could be a good idea right? You could have a password to turn off chat settings to keep younger children who play the game safer and less exposed to vulgar words and ideas parents should teach them to keep them from making right or wrong choices. I've ran into so many younger kids being teased and bullied because they can't spell or are new at the game. Please SC consider this. I love this game and a lot of the players do too ,this option would be amazing to have.It would help a lot to some players to have this option. I know the game has a warning on the chat but that isn't enough people have found there ways around the rules, starred out words, and other restrictions and it's making an unsafe global chat. I've read multiple times over and over threats as well as vulgar opinions and would love to have a choice to remove global or at least put a password to eliminate chat options for global.

Yes! global also drains a lot of battery and data with the constant updating

Yeah that too but if it had a password to keep it off would that be good too? Like say you choose to turn it off and put a password on it to keep it off, so only someone with the password could turn it back on.

Why turn off global ? Atleast specify a reason for somebody to comment on

You can also be reported for nothing thanks to trollers or false reasons. Such as people who like to see only themselves talk. Other reasons could be because you choose not to join their clan. Global could hopefully be changed in ways of removing chat like Boom Beach has no chat except for clan chat. Clash players have also found ways around cussing and using vulgar language such as using alternate letters. Lots of younger people play this game as well as adults. you can read things such as "Looking for a gf" or "DTF?" Or "do u have kik?" Or other inappropriate comments. Some of the kids on can barely spell or some are even younger than the age of ten. A few youngsers ask questions about vulgar things they read and are exposed to such things only a parent or guardians should tell them or teach them. Can there please be a change. Please SC talk this into consideration it's technically just as bad as a private chat room.

When I read all of this... the first thing that comes to mind is the mute button. Playing the game in general drains battery. The biggest way to save battery would be to just not play. :p

I think it just might be a waste of time and make the game complicated. Also remember this game is 13+ by then parents usually dont care. (there are 9 year olds playing minecraft with strangers out there) So if your talking about younger children, im sorry, they shouldnt even be playing.

Point executed perfectly Luiz. Very nice. :o:):D

That's true but parents don't read what kids ask them to download. Then after a while they know they are playing and see typing then worry about what they could be hiding. Even so global isn't an all around good place even for older players. You still read vulgar disrespectful and bully like Msgs aimed towards other players which is supposed to be a people friendly game that everyone can enjoy. People get frustrated from people just chatting on global when it's meant for strategies recruiting and other things. You read personal info, Bribery, and other things that shouldn't be shared.

I do see what you mean but this is from a Producers point of view since i am one myself. It is not SuperCells problem that thier game is being missused UNLESS it could get them sued. Also parents should pay more attention. Thats their fault. I never understood why students before 7th grade need a smartphone anyway. Also about being sued SuperCell cant because they put a warning. If the consumer ignored the warning then they are playing at their own risk. SuperCell could be wasting time and money making that feature. I rather that not happen. As for oldier players, pfft i think seeing a couple sencored swears on a secured online cloud game is much lighter then what most people watch at the movies.

Cell phones are a must due to that fact of kids being taken...did u get about the ring in Columbia had over 1,000 kids under 18 starting from age 10 selling them...such a thing as global is scary and can cause problems boom beach doesn't have a global making it more simple and safer. But if u could have the option it might make everything a lil better especially for higher lvl players looking for mature players rather than kids. Parents nowadays will barely read anything a kid shows them as long as it means they stay quite. Programming must be hard but even with rules and bans they aren't effective as they should be. Take these forums for example. You are to use specific places to post things nd do certain things to post but most people don't want to do that they just want want they want. If u were to a download a game U read description nd what the game accesses nothing else. The way U see it is as more work and irresponsible parenting but see it as in taking more time to improve something your already good at things may become complicated but you know you would rather have abetted program than before.

Cell phones i understand but not smart phones. Also programming, do you know how much of a pain that can be? Plus they are paying employees for making a feature for people who void there playing condition. (Also just saying, this is a company. Which means they need to earn money. They make games to make money. Not to please the minority that breaks the rules) Improving something that already exists like maybe implementing a auto ban for mass reporting of a player would be easier to code. (pretty much just using two pieces of codethat already exist and tweaking it so it changes the outcome of a report)



Also it should be obvios this game isnt for small children. There is a man without a shirt on with a sword as a logo. And the banner has people fighting with swords bombs and there are arrows flying. So parents are either lacking in common sense, attention or dont care. But noneof it should be of concern to supercell. When parents find out they should remove the game or talk to their child.

I didn't understand any of that...but think about it U only get a specific number of reports those players breaking the rules suffer minor consequences such as a 24 hour ban. Making players miserable and annoyed in a game that is meant for enjoyment. Just simply not having a global could keep things safer. It's painful work yes but that was a job you were hired to do. You get paid usually by in-app purchases or other things. You can't help the minority...but that's because the majority are breaking the rules. U can barely find one global that doesn't have one rule breaker on it.

What kind of job do you have? Or better yet how old are you? Doesnt matter if they where hired for that. SuperCell still has to pay them more for making stupid features. They need to make features that will improve the overall gameplay or product stability for everyone not the minority who broke the rule and played underaged. If 9 year old are miserable then so be it. They shouldnt be playing and can rejoin the community in 4 years.

1. That's personal info...so not answering that
2. it's their job if you were to refuse to do something told they would find someone else whenever they pleased
3. The majority is breaking the rule so makes it unfair to players who actually do nothing wrong or play right and get harassed and spammed on global by a majority who break the rules.
4.if it was a stupid feature like U say so then why is it on Boom Beach another game Made By SC themselves.

Boom beach A completely different game. It doesnt really have much of a global chat. Also theyve has some serios spam issues unlike clash of clans. You people keep saying the global chat is terrible. It really isnt very bad and there are not that many threating posts. As for swears. Grow up. Also your starting to bug me, your posts arent even based on anything important anympre so i will ignore you untill you come up with a really good argument. I will listen to the next person who posts along.

Then I guess U don't seem to play or read global as much as other players...its a real issue but if u see everything as nothing to U that's ur choice...boom is a different game but my point is they can obviously do have the ability to do what I request...they don't have to but they still see stuff covering such issues and may or may not decide to do something about it. Just because U program doesn't mean U are always right no one is perfect U have UR opinions and I have mine.

Don't bring this thread off topic, or it will be in threat of a Moderator closing or deleting it. Please explain all of the benefits of this update you are suggesting, it might help someone realize the Pros in the idea.

Nice comment above. (jules) But if you have a problem its not like your getting global chat notifications or that its not hideable. Just ignore it. Or mute everyone. Its pretty simple.

Also i understand you i have opinions but i do not think you have the knoledge lf how annoyingly difficult some things can be. This issue can be distracting to developers having them work on something like this instead of something better suiting of their time. That is not an opinion that is a fact. ✌️

Also plz dony use u for you allthe time. It becomes hard to read.

My whole point is I want UR opinions but just Cuz u have a certain job doesn't mean it can't be done. Another point was they can and have the ability to make this feature happen due to them having it in another thing they also run. People break the rules and its a majority of the players U can rarely get on global without reading something bad or against the rules. All I wish to have is an ability to not have global or a choice to have it off some players like it others don't I just would like that we could have a choice. Global is stressful to read and post on due to the majority not reading the rules. They may be warned but they don't listen. Some care but others just don't wanna have to deal with global due to these problems or because of the constant search for an update to what is posted it kills battery life...the game does that in general but it's an enjoyable game that people wanna play a choice could just make it so much better...

The deal with the "Job" part is that Supercell is the one paying these workers. Sure it can be done, but it is not benefiting Supercell at all to be paying programmers overtime for an update that the majority of players don't really care about (not meaning any offense). And you're right, people break the rules, they do all the time, and there is hardly anything SC can really do about it. Blocking global isn't really a solution to a problem either, besides shielding young players from seeing these people. But the game is 13+, so I think that there discretion is highly matured. Plus, the majority of players would not use this function, as good as it may sound, because the majority of them are on global. Updates are to satisfy the majority, not just you (and again no offense). And finally, the global chat has many myths on how it drains your battery, it really doesn't to be honest. Turn on battery savers or just dim the back light if you worry to much about it.

Wasn't taking offense nd it's not the screen brightness that causes it to die its that the game requires constant internet connection so it constantly finding the connection slowly things down and kills battery Cuz it's doing something U don't know that's why iPhones nd other objects charge twice as fast due to it not constantly trying to find a source. Global kinda always searches for that source to keep the posts on it current and "now" or "two minutes ago" rather than never getting a reply. It makes sense what everyone is saying but wouldn't it make it easier on programming though to have it off so it doesn't have to constantly update as well as sort out reported players or filter words. Or even just simply load a random convo with people all around the world with a certain number on each separate global chat.anything else my brain isn't grasping?

Because asking if someone has a Kik is inappropriate:rolleyes:

Actually that is not the reason why, in fact here is a link explaining ways your phone is always dying: Why does my iPhone battery die so fast?

i completely agree with you.

Just letting you know. If the chat is the source of thr battery issue (I HIGHLY doubt it, but anyway...) A global chat hide might not change that. If you know something anout coding or even computers in general you may know that even if the chat doesnt appear on the screen for you it may be loading in the background. Which pretty much means nothing would change whatsoever in terms of battery.

I'm lost..... Is the idea of being able to disable chat because

1. It Kills your battery ?

i don't know about this, unless you are actually in global, I dont think it's updating your device


2. You want to Save the kids from bad words ?

to quote Brian Griffin " Can you hear me back there in 1950?"

3. I want it gone becuase I keep getting banned !!!!!

If you keep getting banned somehow I think you know exactly what you are doing to get banned, either stop doing that or stay out of global, it is a cesspool, or as granny always said " lay down with the dogs, get up with fleas"


i cant make heads nor tails out of this thread.

As far as i know, sc is working on something to do with global. Could see something soon

1.supposedly kills battery
2.constant complaints in forums about the whole being reported by ppl "trollers" by people who did nothing wrong....I've seen a few actually some guy was like"join or I'll report U" it's kinda irritating Cuz majority of ppl on global do stuff like this
3. Kinda save the kids because even though it has an age thing no one reads it or the rules so global becomes an all around kinda bad place for most players(didn't say I kept getting banned btw lol)
4.even though ppl see rules nd read them global doesn't really do much to stop anything going on Cuz it only filters certain words not all convos Cuz of all desperate global chats so people found ways around the rules to insult and degrade other players making global a negative experience to people who are new or just like the game for wars,attacks, and the achievements/challenges. The whole point of it is mainly to vote or say why global should or shouldn't stay or if people should have a choice while getting online to turn it off to make the experience/game play better/more positive.

1. Doesn't kill battery, please refer to my earlier post containing a link explaining why.
2. Then don't talk on global if you're worried about that... Besides you need 10 reports on you before you get banned anyways
3. A rule is a rule, and it even asks you in a very brief way before you start the game. So people do have the time to read it, so they don't have any right to complain
4. Refer to number 3
