Additional private message command, and colour is back
Hi guys,
I have added a new command to rolyd.com. This is for those advanced power-chatters out there who thrive among oodles of private messages. It's also for those people who hate it when they're replying to Player_A and before they finish the sentence Player_B sends a /msg so they have to go back to the start of the line and change "/r blah blah" to "/m Person_A blah blah". ><!
Anyway, here:
/mm [message] - Send a private message message to the last player you sent a private message to.
You can think of it as 'message more' if you can't remember lol. One 'm' to message someone, two 'm's to message again lol. Was going to do /ml for 'message last' but another plugin is using it.
Note that this is subtly different to /r. /r sends a message to the last person who messaged you, while /mm sends a message to the last person you messaged.
Below are a some examples to make it a bit clearer how to use it compared to /r.
I tried to make example two a bit of a complicated situation to make this point: If it's too confusing for you, you can stick to /m and /r as you already know!
Example 1 - the lone messenger
You: /m bob Hello!
You: /mm How are you?
You: /mm Hello are you there?
You: /mm Ow... I'm so alone and lonely and feeling kinda lonesome...
You: /mm I am... the lone messenger...
Bob: "Oh sorry, was afk. What are you on?"
Example 2 - the conversation juggler
You: /m bob Hello!
Bob: "Hey what's up?"
You: /mm Do you have any glass I could buy?
Bob: "How much do you need?"
Sam: "Hey, do you have a minute?"
You: /mm Hmm, 3 stacks? (To Bob, the last person you messaged.)
You: /r Hold on a sec! (To Sam, the last person who messaged you.)
Bob: "I'll let you have it for free!"
Sam: "Ok" (Sam is now the last person you messaged, and the last person who messaged you.)
You: /m sam Wow thanks! (you can't use /m or /r to message Sam here!)
You: /r Ok ready, what's up?
Example 3 - the tunnel vision chatter
Bob: "What's a good movie to watch? I'm so indecisive!"
You: /r Well you came to the right person! My friends call me the amazing decido!
Sam: "Hey, got a minute?"
You: /mm Watch Clockwork Orange
Bob: "Ok!"
Sam: "You there?"
You: /mm Hmm, actually, Run Lola Run!
Bob: "Ok I'll go with that."
You: /mm No wait! Casper, you know that friendly zombie movie?
Bob: "Ghost..."
Sam: "I know you're there, I can see you jumping around..."
You: /mm Oh what about Japanese dramas! Check out Orange Days!
Dave: "Sam says you're ignoring him, haha."
You: /mm Oh, Hana Yori Dango is a classic too!
Sam: "Oi!"
Dave: "Are you ignoring me too? :/"
You: /mm You know I think you should watch them all!
You: /r Yes I'm ignore you too.
You: /m Sam IOException: Player not recognized. Chat functions disabled.
Sam: "Are you pretending to be a bot so you don't have to talk to me...?"
Ok I probably got a bit carried away with my examples, but you get the picture.
Now for those of you who don't really care:
Grand Announcement 2!
Colour is back in your private messages. Go ahead and use your '&' colour codes. You know, "&4Hello" etc. Yes yes, you can use your lovely strikethroughs and underlines and bolds and obfuscation (flickering magic!).
Ok, I'm done.
