Your View: Roleplay Engine, Review Poll

4. What is your opinion on the chat format options (bold and italics)?

 

This needs to be available for non-donors... Seriously. That, or at least make it so I can see the /'s in "my /speech."

What is miss is, you used to be able to start a roleplay with an emote, like:

 

*He looked to his left,* "How dare you!"

 

When you do that now, it is typed as *Roleplay Name he looked to his left* "How dare you!"

 

while I suggest to only add the roleplay name WITHIN the roleplay when you typ 's or begin your roleplay without *, because at the moment you have to think that every roleplay starts with your own name.

 

*He smiles* "No" ((display as: He smiles "No"))

 

's hat was bright red ((display as: Roleplay Name's hat was bright red))

 

Is smiling* "No" ((display as: Roleplay Name is smiling "No"))

 

But other than that: great plugin

Anti-Spam is just useless and a general nuisance.

 

The extent of spamming is only seen as people get ready for Warclaims, and realistically, at that time there is little to no RP happening anyways so there shouldn't be any problem with it.

 

It's just an irritating feature that shouldn't be put into the server. Maybe have it implemented for new persona's like the PvP timer, but nothing more than that. It's just useless and irritating.

Try this, if I remember correctly it still works.

 

Input: !He smiles. (Output: [!]He smiles.) (I absolutely know there's a way to do this, I just can't remember 100% if this is it.)

 

The second and third examples you detail do happen, dunno if that's what you were asking. I presume you were just stating it to show contrast to what you wanted.

Yes, I could use **He smiles, but then it is displayed as if it is a non-character action like: "[!] Rain starts to fall". But before the update you could type something, so that your character name stayed grey, but the rest of your text just the normal roleplay color you've chosen, so that you indeed could start a sentence with 'He said' or something.

 

And yes, indeed, I showed the other two to make my idea clear, haha.

I feel really alone on these polls in the fact that I honestly don't mind the cooldowns, haha. Even in OOC chats I just sit there for a couple seconds and I'm fine. I could really go either way in terms of them staying or going, it doesn't even affect me because of how insignificant they are(which says something in favor of them staying IMO). 

As for RP chats, I often take way longer than the cooldown so that my emotes are thought out or whatever, if you find yourself making emotes faster than the cooldown it's perhaps time to change something. Continuity helps with this as was Telanir's intention, and as the polls reflect, everyone is digging Continuity. So that's cool.

As a final note, I voted that I won't be using auto-punctuation much, and that's only because I found that I never needed it with my tendency to use punctuation consistently anyway. For people that don't(I.E newer players), I imagine it's helpful.

In general, I think the plugin is superior to what we had before! Everyone loves superiority!

I still need to get used to this sizzle, looks good, real short answer. :)
