Most people in your characters' whisper history?

Postby miirkaelisaar » Wed Feb 17, 2021 3:06 pm

I'm just curious, what's the most character names in one of your characters' whisper histories? One of mine had over 60 or 70 and I just trimmed it down to an even 50 now, I don't know why it's so hard to delete them, especially the dead people. Anyone else have trouble letting go? XD It's an entire page of names before I even scroll down to the text bar.

The most I've ever had was like 12 or so. That was before I quit.

3 or 4. It's like keeping a memory of those people. A reminder, like a photograph. You log in, you see their names, and all the memories come to you.

Heh, I think I've definitely had characters reach 12, as well. More probably too.

I mostly try to keep it below two lines, so it also depends on what kind of naming convention the char in question uses. If I go with only first names (the rest would be saved in the character notes), it can grow to quite the list.

I tend to keep them as it's a good way for me to remember how that character met them (since when they open up, unless you close them, they stay in chronological order!)

Edit: highest count so far is 36.

68 currently, likely about 75 in past.

I delete them right after I whisper to someone. I don't like the clutter. My highest ever is probably 2.

I have some whisper histories in the 30's... Its like a memory of who that char has met.
There is a resource of everyone your char has met...but I think its not readily available...maybe you could request it?
No harm in asking.

I erase alot of my whisper history under the paranoid impression that it may cause some lag...not in cantr so-much, but on one of my ancient cpu's.

My 'main' character's spouse died about 80 days ago and I haven't the heart to dismiss the whisper. :'(
Thus my brutality has met it's limit
