Topic: in-game message system

Our messaging system sucks.  There's no other way to say it.  What do you guys dislike about it specifically?  What would you like to be improved?  What features are lacking?

Discussion from this thread will help us in our plans to make this more useful.  Please, complain away!

Re: in-game message system

when posting co-ords through an in-game msg they show annoying planets next to them, looks totally silly and amateur

Re: in-game message system

someone posted in ideas there should be a way to create converstations between 2 players, in the way you select select the msg that started the conversation and a button to create it, so you can copy it and paste elsewhere.

Re: in-game message system

I did not come up with this idea and wont take credit for it but I remember someone at some point in time saying it would be nice if something could be done along the lines of the messaging system on Facebook. dunno how doable that even is but I personally think it would be a great idea

<&InSaNe> so for reference tco has a ticklish bumhole
<@SerialBusiness> good to know. I will make a note of this

Re: in-game message system

what about keeping each person you are messaging in their own messaging thread like texting on most phones is formatted these days. so instead of having a section of received and a section of sent messages you have a list of players you have a message thread with. go into it and you see in chronological order the conversation you are having.
