Vanyel Report post Posted October 15, 2005 This would break any RPish atmosphere at all. Sure some monsters could talk, for example dragons, but rabbits?! For god sake - NO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Derin Report post Posted October 15, 2005 The problem is this: In order to PM someone you need a unique name, so PMing /rabbit won't do the trick (as there are many rabbits in the game at any given time) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparhawk Report post Posted October 15, 2005 unless someone wants to make a bot for each animal that when pmed says something diffrent./rabbit_bot hello /rabbit_bot i will pwn you! anyway this is nonproductive idea and bluntly i dont see the point Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HierosGamos Report post Posted October 15, 2005 solutions to all these things... i like the "#humon on/off" idea (for role players who think it would be stupid) and to message the animals just do /<rabbit> or any symbol that cant be used in a real name but i think there is no need to implement this... honestly how many times are you gonna PM a rabbit and get "whats up doc" before it stops entertaining you and not being worth the keystrokes lol ...they could maybe randomize the replies or something tho and have a list of funny replies which i guess might give you people something to do when you're bored ;-P =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

porpoisepower Report post Posted October 17, 2005 depends on how you code it. If you made Critter/Monsterbots, that just responded with random pm's or emoticons that'ld probably work, otherwise a little parsing in the code that processes pm commands could catch said targets and make sure they are handled differently. Will it have a impact on game. not likely unless inteligent monsters said helpful stuff occasionaly would it bug people who never think to try to pm random creatures, not likely will it be amusing the first 2 times and then stupid, yes. That being said do people who pm beavers 40 times an hour have a right to say that its stupid, when they could just not pm them? I'll let you decide. anyways I just thought it would be cute for 2 minutes, and then people forget about it. the dreaded porpoisee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dark_Nightmare Report post Posted October 19, 2005 We need more BOTs, strrets and towns are empty, we need BOTs to fill in the blank spaces, like normal people. They will only have strong enough stats to kill a goblin non-equiped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
