Some additional context, this stems in part from the many soundboards and in part from the "Killbot" debate.
Killbot returned to the server after a 3-month haitus. He uses a voicechanger. However, outside of his voicechanger, he is perfectly behaved.
He does not rdm, use other soundboards, talk excessively, talk loudly/shout, use slurs, harass others, or anything of that nature.
The only thing he does is use a voice changer, which fits more into the "gimmick" category than into the micspam category, if anything. Killbot calls all of his KOS's, does all normal voice actions normal players do, albiet in a robotic voice. Its not micspam, its a voice changer.
However, we currently define use of any voice changer, for any reason, as micspam that must be gagged.
Same applies to soundboards of any kind. I think soundboards should be allowed
My opinion? I think the rules need to be relaxed. Who cares if someone uses a voicechanger for a fun gimmick. The rules should be structued such that micspam is allowable under these FOUR (4, sorry Milly) categories:
1. Gameplay is not interfered with/obstructed by voice changer/soundboard
2. Dead chat/post/pre round chat is not made miserable by other players
3. Sound is not at an excessive level in general
4. Slurs/harassment are not involved (these obviously fall under other rules now).
