come gather round people
wherever you roam
and admit that the waters around you have grown
accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
if your time to you is worth saving
then you better start swimming or else you'll sink like a stone
for the times, they are a changin'

End masses can be replaced by a gui based report system...And usually end masses should summarize the event and not take as long as the event to write, if I'm correct about what GC's you are referring to.

More or less was referring to the "such and such won such and such event and got 2 tickets" masses. Thats just lazy.

I'd prefer to have control over the end-mass in order to have fluff, rather than let the gui do it.

I meant as in typing the message into the gui and the gui relaying it to the players via itself.

Though I don't know what our gui (if we had one) would look like, I doubt it would leave too much room for my elaborate and spacious reports.

Why wouldn't it? Multi-line editboxes exist.

BlackSolider · #**280** 04-01-2009, 05:45 PM

Do they? Cool.

Having learned that, how would they be different than masses then?

MysticX2X · #**281** 04-01-2009, 06:14 PM

The annoyance of having to read masses is gone or having to look over 100 masses for a replacement.

That's a good point too. I wasn't even considering the benefits to the GC-end. Clearly opposition to such changes is warranted and justified.

BlackSolider · #**283** 04-01-2009, 07:44 PM

I don't pretend to know the exact details of how it would look or appear, but would the gui messages (say for a replacement) disappear after X amount of seconds?

MysticX2X · #**284** 04-01-2009, 08:07 PM

Well no one knows since this idea isn't even in development I believe, but it would be cool to have the gui appear at your convenience. Such as you can say /eventsgui off, or something.

Oh, and thanks for the negative rep on my former post here, anonymous.

That's the kind of idea I had in mind, but since I'm not likely to make this system in the first place, there's no telling what'll happen.

Why do you even care about reputation? If anyone seriously uses that as a representation of you in some way, they're probably not someone you want to have any concern for anyway. (No, it wasn't me, if that made you curious.)
