pretty easy to filter those as duplicates with names like that.

For a human, yes it's obvious. For a programmable algorithm - which would be required here - it's not. And yes, I am talking from real world software development experience.

You need an algorithm with a high rate of matching names that belong together, but at the same time you need a super low rate of false positives and these are conflictive goals.

In the end you have like 80% auto-matching and still need to process the rest manually. This is not easy task in a map vault of a few thousand maps. And that just covers the status quo. New maps are uploaded every day and they need to be covered as well.

Idk.

Some people look for that.

I know I do. When I play rocket league (mainly competitive 2s) I almost never team up. so I'm almost always in randoms vs premades and my team generally wins.

Same could apply for supcom.

Anyways to bridge the gap more you could also set up discord to throw you into automatic channels if you consent to it the way we had mumble set up back in the day. and then you're a premade too.

Upvote this Github issue and annoy the author 😛

This forum potentially sends out summaries and stuff like that, thats why it is asking for consent.
Eventually, you can configure the level of email notification to your liking (and if I saw it correctly by default it should not send anything).

I cannot deactivate, neither do I even care about it. This is default software, we're not gonna reprogramm it because someone is afraid to consent to something that is a legally delicate topic. If you don't trust the FAForever administration to not spam you via a fucking forum, stay out of the forum or stay out of FAF, I don't care.

Thank you.
