Note deleting

[swymir]

Yeah these notes could lead to a whole branch of new protection. The note chainmail and the note crossbow.

a man in his twenties hits you with a note
your note armor absorbs 40% of the damage

but is now illegible

I think there should only be a extra option. The option "only editable by creator". That way, no one can edit your notes. Only you can.

A possibility to burn the notes, should never be implanted. There should never be a possibilty to destroy notes.
1. We should keep history!
2. Note thiefs and other people, might burn all the notes that are in a city...

But hasn't history been destroyed before some people might want to cover things up. Book burning isn't new and should be in the game. IE someone gave me a not I read it and burn the note. Now no one nows what was on that note!

[thingnumber2]

maybe you need a campfire, torch, or fireplace, to burn notes...that way, not just anybody can burn em...also maybe it could take a little to burn, like maybe it just burns on line at a time, so if you get it fast enough you still have most of the note.....also, it'd be cool if you could eat notes! Like you read the plans, than eat em...it could cause digestional problems though...

You can still hide the note. I think the nature of Cantr is such that we need to have undestroyable notes else it would be too easy to destroy history, as it is many places don't know much about their history

[g1asswa1ker]

History is lost all the time, and lies are put in there place all the time. So the samething should be applied here. I like the note burning idea. Anyway look at where your at how much do you know about where your at and how far can you go back and is everything you know true?

[Solfius]

but it's harder to cover up all the evidence and rewrite history in Cantr than in RL, so the record should remain, in the form of undestroyable notes, even if that record is kept hidden

[g1asswa1ker]

it's really easy to make history up I can just make 40 copies of a history and then spread them out the lands trash cans and there you go fake history

[g1asswa1ker]

Find a couple of lonly dead bodies drop some food and stuff and leave a fake history note or two and bam kick it up a notch more fake history delievered by the dead old man.

[Solfius]

Exactly it is easy to make up history in Cantr, which is why it should be hard, if not impossible, to destroy legitimate history.

[g1asswa1ker]

Yes but how would you tell the real from the illusion

[Solfius]

That's another matter, but at least the real still exists for you to look at and enjoy and try to figure out, which wouldn't happen if notes were destroyable, as I expect most people would destroy old notes they don't want any more, destroying all the history they have

[g1asswa1ker]

Yes and that should be there choice. Just because you personal want to save history does not mean everyone has too. Trust me on this I'm learn the hard way that Cantr is not very fair that way so why should it be any easier for the historians
