Hivemind Chat Changes

[Steelpoint]

Bottom post of the previous page:

Or just replace Changeling with the Shadowling. It is the only incarnation of Changeling that actually received near universal praise from the server.

That comes from the encouragement of the Shadowling to absorb people which bring them back into the round as a UnderShadowling.

I would like to see Hivemind become a default ability again. It is truly one of the only unique abilities a Changeling has, just to list off their abilities in comparison to others.

Not really.

Hivemind Chat - Traitor Code Words.

Traitors don't have to pay for code words, though.

[Reimoo]

But traitors never use code words. And even if they did, it wouldn't even be comparable to a private antag chat like lings have.

Hivemind is still completely unique

You can use it while stunned/muzzled/whatever without any radios or items. It's completely stealthy and effective, nothing else works like hivemind does.

The ability to use such effective and discrete communication is what allows lings to work together, without it, as we've all pointed out, it's just another shitty variety of traitor/DA.
