Welcome to the Barren Realms MUD newsletter, August 19, 2003!

Visit BR at: telnet://barren.coredcs.com:8000/

IDEAS:

Disaster: allow choice of coulours for prompt as we do for cheer (since only the individual sees it, the anti-horrible-couloured-spam argument doesn't apply)

Ghaleon: Names of the personalized people who can use an item appear when you ID the item

Isis: give demons their own guildmaster, and let us poor morties type prac at recall again

Lairian: It would be nice to be able to pull up a SLIST equivalent filtered for in-guild skills or out-of-guild skills. A SINLIST or SOUTLIST if you wil.

>>Colors are available for prompt, I have a rainbow colored prompt on Anakin. *pokes*

Isis: give demons their own guildmaster, and let us poor morties type prac at recall again
>>Agreed, maybe to put a little twist, set the RC Guardians. :D

Lairian: It would be nice to be able to pull up a SLIST equivalent filtered for in-guild skills or out-of-guild skills. A SINLIST or SOUTLIST if you wil.
>>The "*" on inguilds when typed "SLIST" will be enough, IMO.
It's amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world everday always just exactly fits in the newspaper.

Anakin...
Seriously...
That boucing girl is going to give someone a seizure.
The stars brightly shine upon our world, a constant reminder of our origin. We are stars.

"*" on inguilds? You have asterisks? I want asterisks...you mean we have asterisks and I've never seen them? *pout*

Also, wouldn't it make more sense for the out of guilds to be "*"ed, with a footnote type thing at the bottom denoting that it's out of guild and prompting newbies to read help oog (if that exists...I've never tried...*toe*)?

And I like Anakin's bouncy girl...kawaii!

I have been informed that I'm an idiot and that the *s are desired to show up in a future patch.

I take back my pouting.

That is all.

Return to your normal lives.

Or punking Kandy.

Or beating up dwarves at the daycare for their lunch money.

Or whatever else passes for normal in the Realms.

I would actually prefer Anakin to have a normal picture instead of the annoying bouncing girl. Though she is cute, ALL his pic choices have become annoying to me over time due to their size. But at least the swatting guy is gone...though I think he was Disasters thing.
