Flag capping warning?

[Deleted]

I wonder if its possible to get some macro or if its some addon out there that would allow you to get a warning whenever someone is capping flag's in battlegrounds for exampel see below;

A person start capping the flag in AB Lumber mill, then a raidwarning should be spammed 3 times with the following text,
"Enemy capping flag in LM"
If they are capping in blacksmith it should then be;
"Enemy capping flag in BS"

Is it possible to code something like that, all jsut to prevent people from ninjacapping..

No, it's not possible even with addons.

Probably not as it really would be taking out an aspect of the game in terms of awareness, I understand that it would be helpful, but the whole idea of defending a flag is actually making sure you defend it while keeping your eyes peeled, also it promotes communication which is also a large part of this BG.

Are you sure, cos even tho im not into coding I bet it's some kind of code generated from whenever your capping that you could use and make a warning from, or Im i wrong?

Don't mean to be rude but how bout you just fight on the flag watching an enemy standing still and them spam some AOE.

If its another base, you win some, you lose some.

It's not like spamming AoE's on the flag is hard enough, is it?

Ugh, I would hate that it would just suck all the remaining fun out of it.

Keep an eye on the flag....it's a new trick that's slowly catching on.

Hopefully killing healers first catches on quicker.
I hate loosing bases to idiots who attack the warrior who's being healed by the priest/resto/pally/shaman loling around in the back that im trying to widdle down

I'll take a look into whether it generates any events.

Just checked and didn't find any combat log events firing for flag captures.
