Automatic day reports

Postby *Wiro » Thu May 15, 2014 5:05 pm

We were talking of this in IRC, and I am quite certain the idea came up several times in the past. Wouldn't it be nice if day reports were configurable to be sent automatically to your email, so you don't risk missing a day nor have to go through the trouble of sending them to yourself by hand?

I'm not sure if there are any limitations to this, although I think most people that use the feature do so regularly and would appreciate the option to have it done automatically.

Ooo, that would be nice indeed! I curse myself when I've let the reports stack over its limit and end up missing reports to send to my email :\

I'd like this. I send them manually every day as-is.

I know in the past there were concerns about the server being able to handle sending them. Maybe now either the server could manage it or someone would be able to program it in a way that they're sent only a few at a time. I do think it should be optional because not everyone wants to have them and it would save some server processing if the unwanted reports weren't sent out.

Server load is no longer a problem (as confirmed on IRC by GreeK earlier). It should indeed be optional. :)

Bump, I guess. This would be so convenient. I dread the day I miss a turn report.

While we're waiting for this, can we get the buttons for dailies moved up above the character list?

I just realised that this has 46 yes votes. While of course votes mean nothing (or little) in the suggestions forum, I still wanted to point it out. :lol:

Never again would we miss a turn report.

What ratio does it need to be, before we can legally hunt and kill the one no person?
