Chat to offline player when they return

Recommended Posts

Pretty simple. When you need to say something to a player that is offline and don't have time or ability to do the papyrus/mail system - maybe you are out in the wilds and nowhere near a mail box.

 

Simply put, everything you type into a chat PM to an offline player, with be saved and displayed for that player when they next log in.

 

***While you were away***

Hey buddy, I finished imping the plate for you and put it in your armor stand.

***End message***

1.) nobody looks at a message board in a village, even if its advised. Thats my experience from them lol. 2.) everybody knows you can message on the forums, but the more you have to minimize a game and open your browser, the less you feel "IN" the game. 3.) Im not gonna add every person I talk to on facebook/discord/skype/etc.

 

To mail a letter it cost 1i, and im sure people have at least 1 copper in their bank to send 100 letters. The dye you need could be 1ql and any color, shouldnt matter since you pretty much want gray. Its honestly a really nice method of messaging offline people, and if the wiki is right about how many letters can fit on a paper, its not bad. Paper can be in a bsb and dye is pretty easy to squeeze out of a cochneal.

 

+.5, Not really needed but i understand for lazy people. I get like that sometimes.

Lots of folks never use forums and the other options aren't any good when you aren't at the village or someone's mailbox.

Not anyone's problem but your own.

Exactly, and this is a suggestion to fix that problem. Welcome to the suggestion forums!

+1 I much prefer this than mailing papyrus which I did like...once...lol. Usually when people need to talk to me they would either contact me on the forums or wait until I am online to chat. I don't believe many players use papyrus to communicate with each other when offline (?)

+1 Very handy. Would be even better if players are NOT able to spam the GMs while we're offline, though.
