DM to playe

Hello, I would like to propose some changes and improvements to the game. There should be an option to send DM to player from the score table.
I hope that my feedback will be helpful:)

That is something we need to be careful with, I think we all have seen what kinds of messages are posted in the ingamechat (especially in enlisteds brother: warthunder). Giving these players the ability to chat privately with other players, would pose a major risk to user safety (bullying, insults, discrimination and more). This would require a lot of moderation effort, and considering the amount of players enlisted has, it would not be possible to suppress all hatespeech. A chat function limited to friends or people in a squad on the other hand, would be a very helpful feature that is easier to moderate (less likely to be used as a platform for harassment).

Apart from the awful grind, another thing that put me off from continuing to play Warthunder was getting harassed via private messages after loosing matchs. Private messages should be a thing, but only between people you are friends with, preferably added together with a system that marks you as “wants an invite”.

agree dm function, since the word filter added, Private messages and to team/all in-game chat should be release

I guess I should be happy that I have never played a game where I am in communication with or got messages from other players, because everyone sending me messages like that would get my typical three word response, “Go f**k yourself”. :blush:

At one time, I was getting messaged here on the forum from someone who did not agree with some of my ideas, and after trying to be respectful and telling him repeatedly to stop messaging me, I finally just had to use those three magic words, and the messages stopped. :wink:
