@Name instead of /pm - #<text> instead of /opchat - Andilitox - 02-05-2014

Hey everyone, I have two suggestions today.

Replace /pm with @Name and maybe (since there's no more rocket) use /r to reply to the last person that messaged you.
Ex: @Andilitox Hey

Replace /opchat with "#" followed by the text you want to say.
Ex: #Andilitox is hacking

I think both of this feature would reduce the amount of chatkills and make it easier to talk privately on the server.

Thanks,
Andi

Yeah it seems good, but it would be kinda hard to change :/

I think /pm is fine, but maybe add # in addition to /opchat so we can use either. Either one sounds good to me though!

Does it seem possible to do a private conversation string like:

/pm Name Message

but instead of typing /pm Name Message again, you can just keep saying /pm Message, as in, it would remember the recipient's name until commanded otherwise (i.e. no existing player in the server, or to a new person).

I'm sure Jacob_ can do this, unless there's a better compromise.

Or even just havce it set-up like for example:

/pm [# - optional]name message

Then if the "#" Is included, you can just type the message in the next time you speak. This continues to happen until you do:

/pm

Then your conversation ends and you can speak to others again.

If you don't add the "#" then it's a normal private message like we already have.

---------------------------------

For opchat, maybe if you do:

/oc message

Instead of /opchat message

OR you can do:

/oc #

Then it whatever messages you type are in opchat until you do:

/oc

again.
