good idea?bad idea?

why not use the overworld npc to post graal problems?if there is a server problem post it there,if the forums are down post it there.it would save a lot of pms to people like stefan from people who want to know if there are problems.it would also stop having to try to connect to the forums to see if its up or not.use this npc like a town crier to post pertinate information.

Send a message via ICQ to Merlin Send a message via AIM to Merlin

I am the npcserver for
this game server. Almost
all npc actions are controled
by me.

it says like New news: etc...

I think he means so you can report bugs or something and it logs the messages and Stefan or someone could check them.

No... he dosen't mean that, hemeans the same as Merlin said at the top. A place to see the server news/status report.

so you message it and it replies with something like:


Server Status:
+ Website - WORKING
+ Forums - DOWN

Notes:
Sorry we are experiencing problems with the Forums. It will be fixed as soon as we can figure out whats wrong.

Idea is good. Then Stefan won't be bothered by people when he is online trying to fix/update something by those kinds of questions

Hmmm Can change the nickname of the npcserver to
Latest Informations
or so. There selected people could also
post problems like ftp on enigma and graal3000 down
(so the pw owners know the problem is known
and don't need to PM me all the time :-)

Hmmm or saying 'NPCserver is down will come back soon'
Hmmm i guess that will not work

I think it can be good but it probably not
make people not PMing me ;-) People like to
directly contact other admins instead of
sending forum PMs or asking other players

It would be easy on stefan if we had someone with a high access to fix things that was there souly for questions. Faq's only answer questions about the games and have no real knowledge of "why the forums are down" or "whats happening the the servers?"

I wish I had FTP so I could fix Bomys and such. Except that Stefan really hasn't said anything about that subject...........

Most people just contact me about
'will you put my playerworld on',
'someone stole money from me',
'will you support me as Police?',
'can i do a kingdom'

That are not things that couldn't
be answered by other people,
who have little power (jailing) and
read the forums from time to time
