Yeah, but you'll see one or two.


I see lots.
<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Eh. I'm getting the impression that it won't be adopted very well at all.


To be honest, it could, but from an unbiased standpoint, I really don't see it being used in any situation other than "Where are you?"
<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Stereotypes are supposed to be true.


No stereotype is true everywhere, though.
<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

There needs to be consistency. The initial concept was to assume the character was where they said they were until otherwise stated, but Ruby jumped in and made it sound like she was there.

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

I don't think we'd do that, but we could always bring back the ().


Wouldn't that still canonically be able to be heard by humans? But that doesnt matter anyways, because I don't think we'd do it either- intentionally. It could very well be info that we put in the back of our minds because we read it, then use it later on when it's relevant because it was said and we didn't remember that it was private.

Schoolgirl? When I was in school, nobody freaked out over things, so who knows how that actually applies?


It's kind of a stereotype more than anything.
<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

I'm serious; I really don't care if it's used or not. It was confusing to me because we've been on the presence system for a year, which has just as many flaws (e.g. asking OOC where a character is located), but it's not worth putting a marking next to every single post. That's ludicrous.


Exactly. With it, someone can ask where someone is IC instead of OOC. My only qualm was with potential eavesdropping by characters who would abuse it, or for us players using it as a reason for chars to know information that said chars shouldn't have a reason to know.

You're metaphorically literally metaphorically literally killing me.


But you're not mataphorically literally metaphorically literally dead yet. I said it was cool, and it is. I can go schoolgirl for a second if you want me to.
<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Everything should be done automatically, considering Data's prowess with technology. This isn't something meant to be an element that's actually considered IC, but something that makes it easier on us.

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Fair. Scrap the system then; I don't care.


That makes it better to me.
<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Yes, but it's literally the equivalent of speaking at the base without actually having to be there. The system is smart enough to discern what goes into main chat and what does not.


Even if someone is wanting to have a private conversation at a public location? It just reads their intentions, or will it actually have to be actively switched off?
<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Except they already are through cell phones.


But that is actively. This is passive.
