    Like the title says.

    Please enable the mic for the blue's again. It's kinda annoying that only the warden can talk.
    I guess we can manage the few people who speak over warden. Since some reds still do it.

    Not to be rude, but since you do say you rarely play on jailbreak...
    ...on what grounds do you approve?

    I didn't even know only the warden could speak in microphone, and there's both good and bad sides to it by the sounds of it.

    + The warden does not need to worry about being over voiced by another guard
    + Can tell prisoners to not speak through mic, lessening the risk of not being heard
    - Guards will have to rely on text chat which is inferior to microphone in terms of getting a message through faster
    - In the event a warden is being bad, nobody can respond to him through the microphone which has a bigger impact than text

    Do the negatives of the current functions outweigh the positives? That's the question that should determine whether this suggestion is necessary.

    I have re-configured the plugin to allow everyone on blue to use their mic.
    Changes should be active after the next mapchange.
