Better telegramming?

Postby Khelshar » Sun Jul 29, 2012 2:17 am

I have found it a little annoying to see me get a telegram, as an answer by others, and having no idea what i said. Could we change the telegram system to automatically show, in a "quote" what you said, and having a section with "Send telegrams"?

This belongs in "Technical", and I know your pain, but apparently a new TG system is being worked on at the moment, and hopefully it'll solve that problem. :)
Don't be deceived when our Revolution has finally been stamped out and they tell you things are better now even if there's no poverty to see, because the poverty's been hidden...even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which these new industries foist on you, and even if it seems to you that "you never had so much" - that is only the slogan of those who have much more than you.

They've been saying they'll overhaul the TG system since I first started playing on here. To me, its starting to seem like a pipedream. I know that [violet] and all the other admins are taking valuable time from their lives to work on this site, but still, hearing about it for 2 years and not seeing any visual progress (aside from that flag bit on the right side of the message) is kind of disheartening.

Of course, if you forget what your last message was, you could always TG the person asking them to copy and paste what your last TG was in quotes.

Nope, the new system is actually coming and is being worked on, and shouldn't be too far away. It's just a big job.

It's definitely coming. All the big stuff is done. I'll be shocked if we don't roll it out this year.

I know your pain. It happens to me a lot when I'm working on RP ideas with some people, and then they respond to me about something I wrote last-night a little after they logged off and I'm like, "What the fuck? When did I write them about X?" It would be nice to have a, "Sent Mail," file.
