Maybe if you say /honk Tyhm, it plays a Honk noise on Tyhm's computer? So it isn't "Any time somebody says anything on RC" or "Any time somebody highlights me" or "Any time somebody says my name", but when they're specifically trying to get your attention.

And if they abuse it, they shouldn't be on RC anyway. Maybe make it a right that can be revoked.

Then a seperate sound for "You just got PMed"

You are basically incorporating a mini MSN system on the RC Client.

That's retarded.

It would extremely annoying and inefficient.. Someoone like blobz will PM you over and over again with spam resulting in a horrible amount of noise coming from the rc client..

Bad Idea.

Maybe a popup that comes from RC like how someone logs on MSN? Showing who is talking to you, mentioning your name, or directly saying a command that reminds you that he needs to talk to you directly.

PMs exist for PMing. If Blobz abuses his /honk priveleges, they should be removed and his access to RC should be reevaluated.

Alright the RC "honk" is cleared up.. What if a player is PMing you.. (massive spamming), how in the world can you stand the continious beeping of the rc client..

No that isn't for players, but a command in the RC Chat for staff.


Anyway, I think the sound notification is okay if you want it for Chat or PMs, but make it an option for both, one, or none.

Icon Animations are better in my opinion, and make the option the same as above.


I dont know about you guys, but I find those msn alerts very annoying, because the popup a lot, and screws up my fullscreen games, even tho its supposed to not happen while i have a full screen program up, but w/e... maybe its a msn issue and something graal will accomplish flawlessly. who knows.

Yeh, RC would ideally have a Group option for PM sounds. General PMs don't make a "Uh-oh!", but Buddy and Staff do or would or "could be set to".

Good idea too. Remember, think dynamic with your opinions and ideas fellas. Don't just say, omgosh that's a bad idea. Instead, well, look at Tyhm's last post as an example.
