Allow Mass Messages on Server

Disabling Mass Messages has always been a favorite of mine, especially since I've recently taken to logging on UN, Era, and Zodiac (more so on the former two).

Tons of masses by the second, and I can't ignore them, that blinking blue bubble at the bottom of the screen is killing me, and who knows if there's a yellow one under there.

And I surely can't open them, god forbid. Reading those masses is like reading Youtube comments. Anyone who's ever done this knows the pain I'm referring to. The only quick fix short of gauging my eyes out is turning off mass messages, which works for about an hour.

Then I decide to log on GK, where I'm so cool no one can not talk about me, or Classic where I like to mass one-liners. Unfortunately, when I log on, it hits me that all is silent. No fun masses. Why you ask? Because I still had masses disabled from logging on one of the netherservers. So now I have to turn them back on. Now multiply this times 233. No, more than that. That's how often I run through this same scenario.

So why not have an option to disable masses on certain servers? Like an ignore list only for entire playerworlds.

That, or do what Youtube did, only harsher: The message is read back in Microsoft Sam's voice before you mass. It then quizzes you on the content of the message, followed by a college level grammar exam. Scoring below an 80 on either of the tests results in the message being scrapped, a mass pm is sent saying "im a loser" instead, and you receive 10 week ban time, reason being: 'is sthupid'

If you had your American citizenship, then, yes. It makes you an American.

So the answer is no. If Stefan did get his citizenship then yes he'd be French German but just because he lives there does not make him a French German.

Not only that but "French Germans"? unixmad is French.

I've been wanting Server Specific options for the longest time, including Mass Messages being disabled on specific servers.

When Aren disabled mass messaging on Valikorlia, I talked to a PWA, who said that it was illegal. I believe it was because people pay for the mass messaging feature. So... if people still have to pay for it, I think it's a pretty bad idea to disable it.

Yes, when I was about 1 year old. You?

Considering your statement, my interpretation of Kia's post is wrong. I was reading it that he wanted servers themselves to be able to disable mass messaging. There's no need to be a jerk.
