Why do they seem to repeat everything they say? I can't work out if it's automated or not.

They are giving commands to possibly hundreds of people that might not speak english as a native language. In addition sometimes there is more than one voice talking at the same time and their mic might not exactly be clear. Also, many times they are calling a persons name out and then people have to remember the name and search for it through a list of hundreds of other names. It's repeated so they don't have to remember the name.

  People are also drunk / sleep deprived / have an attention span of a goldfish, or doing several things at once so you might miss who to shoot, where to point your spaceship et c unless it's repeated. I don't know if this is normal for Black Legion's voice chat, but when killing high-value targets the commander can sometimes get riled up over potentially missing the kill.

    He was repeating every small phrase three times though, it was hard to tell if it was automated or habit.

having done 40 man raiding in wow, you need to repeat a helluva lot of commands constantly to keep people on their toes. similarly so with pvp, but that's more about making sure your partners are always on top of what's going on. things get insanely hectic. No it's still not ok to stand in the fire. DONT STAND IN THE FIRE!
