Accepted Remove the Player Console message when a TB gets killed

[Niox]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Makes it so that when a Type-Blue gets killed, it does not display "{player} left CI - TYPE BLUE! (banned for 7200 seconds)" in each persons console.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
From the search I did on the forums, no.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
Less metagaming, as subconsciously or not it naturally occurs because it literally pops up in the bottom right when you kill a Type Blue.
More chances for investigative RP regarding D-Class Type Blues, as GSD would have to ensure they killed the correct one without a doubt, rather than simply checking for if they got a kill log.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Technically a buff to two of the strongest jobs
People being unsure as to if a Type Blue slot is open

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Kind of just thought of this, but this information that does not need to be given out to players. Realistically when a Type Blue dies should just be kept to staff logs, and that's it, as it can give metagamable information to multiple players in active combat.

Yeah, this functionality is pretty much just a leftover from base DarkRP systems, but honestly we don't need it - There's no reason for players to know this (aside from knowing whether or not a TB slot is open, but they can just check in F4 - IMO, D-Class should be able to sign-up for notifs for a D-Class TB opening), this is only really important info for Staff, and it's really only something that should be generally visible to them for moderation purposes. The notification harms more than it helps.

yeah the f4 menu needs to be adjusted so it has like a question mark on the type blue slots unless you're a d class or something in addition to this

this doesnt actually happen for D class TBs. just CI TBs

no reason why there should be a console message leads to metagaming

Accepted, thank you for bringing it up. I wasn't aware it did this for players in console.

We staff get a pop-up.
