Whispering from Character Page

Postby Severine » Sat Aug 01, 2009 6:39 am

Perhaps it's just my own natural laziness and general dislike of mouse clicking, but a thought sparked in my head and I figured what the hell, I'll put it out there.

Would it be possible to have a whisper thing in the character page? Kind of like the renaming part, only it whispers when you click the button or hit enter. I have no idea what sort of programming or whatever it would take to get this achieved, I apologize if it's impossibly difficult. It's mostly just for convenience sake and one less button you have to click.

I believe it's for a whispering icon on the people page rather/as well as going in to the person's profile page.

You mean like a whisper box on the character description page? I think it used to be like that but then it was swapped around because people have to name people more often than whisper to them. People are already accidentally whispering a person's name to them instead of talking so having two boxes on the same page might lead into even more accidents.

I found that accidentally whispering a person's name to them happens to me while changing the name and then something gets.... "wrong". Its a rare thing but, could it be fixed?

And is this a poor place to put it? I mean... you DID just remind me of it.

I see now. I don't think it would help anything.



On a different note:
I rename the people who tell me location names the location name instead of naming the location the location name. :D

I think she means a way to click on a character's name in the events screen and be able to whisper straight away on the character's page.

It saves one click I guess, :)

Sounds to me like a new way for me to screw things up for one of my characters. I would rather not see this but it doesn't really matter, it's not going to make me quit playing or anything.
SIMMONS--SNOWWIS--hmmm interesting don't you think
