Suggestion: Mail

[Maceshank]

So, my idea is that you have a book in your hand, and instead of sign and close, it says sign and SEND, to acquire the mail, type /mail open [name] and it gives you the book.

that is a great idea. This main idea of this thread is really good.

Actually, I was just think about typing, instead of a book

For example: /mail Younis_23_12_ Hi

In this way, people cant send messages that are too long

What if I need to send a long-ish message.

To have the button say Send, you would need eighter a custom texture pack or a mod. Adding a server texture pack = never, and adding a server mod = especially NEVER.

Just use ./mail <player>

Not true.

I have seen multiple plugins for creating custom GUIs (Graphical user interfaces) using buttons and labels. It's not hard actually.

there could also be a /block so if someone spams you, ya could just block em'

Suggestion: Use the email system that has been here for the past 35 years: E-Mail. (Yeah, that thing that has @ in the middle.)

Would they actually bother to make a custom GUI when they could just make a command or as Halo just stated : we can use Email

I honestly don't care. ;p I just wanted to correct you, to be honest.

I find 2 faults with e-mails
1. It isn't really quick and useful to ask where someone is on the server. Because once you check your email, they are sure to have been long gone from that sever. And reloading the page every five seconds? Aint nobody got teim fo dat. Its a waste of time and such a big stretch to ask quick and small things.
2. Some people have their full name on their e-mail accounts so ofc they aren't going to share it. If they wanted to send an email to someone else, they would be out of luck and they would have to tell that person in game their message. But you would have to search all the servers to find your friends.
Also I have seen the /mail command in action, it is indeed only friends and about a 10 - 40 minute cooldown would reduce spam :).

1) It is quick and it is useful. - If people use it correctly. - Send me an email, and I'll reply to you in less then a minute, how I can do that? Because I use email clients, and get a notification across multiple devices as soon as one is received, simple.

2) Not the email's fault. Thats the users fault. Making a new email account with something like gmail takes about 1 to 2 minutes, not really that hard, if someone wants a separate email account that they can share. - My email is info@halothe23.com that easy. :P

For your last sentence, Issue is, if you make it easy to use, its easy to abuse. Not many users will go the real email route to do an appeal/hack report, well, a few do, as I get some daily, but if you make it as easy as /mail <username> <text> - you're literally calling for abuse. If we're ever going to implement something like that, we'll need to make some ways of preventing that, such as allowing only friends to message each other, and possibly integration with real services (mail etc) to give notifications. So its not something that will happen immediately as we already have many things coming.

I think this deserves a lock...

 

[KoningKiwi]

Ye sure, you can lock it
I thought it was a good idea, but I understand that it's not good enough for the server
Cuz CCG is just Amazing
:)

 

[Parvati12]

Locked.
