"Attention" Button

Postby Doug R. » Thu Jan 20, 2011 11:20 am

A button you could click on a character's profile that would place a little alert icon next to their name on a character page. Essentially, if you're waiting on a character for something, you could click this button. I suppose it could be a little OOC for a character to know someone wants their attention even if they can't remember what it was about, but it could be useful for noisy towns, or RP situations involving more than two people where the other players don't want to continue without the others.

This could be abused, of course, so there may need to be limitations.

I like this a lot. :D It reminds me of the email notifications thing, though it may be bad to allow people to get emails from this, I'm not sure.

I like this a lot too, for the same reason as Joshua - I was a fan of the email thing, and this would be almost the same, just much less abusable.

It would be an aid for people in noisy towns. I support this :)
