8741, IC notification of rage deletes
Posted by Wilhath on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
It would be useful if there some kind of gecho showing the rage deletes of those 35ish plus, particularly those in cabals. This has several upsides...


1) If I'm in a position of power, say on the Imperial Council, and somebody below me rage deletes and then reactivates I can't really use their OOC goodbye note on Dio's or this forum punish them for showing weakness. If I have some form of notification IC, though, I can demote their ass. Yes, I'm "old school Empire" enough to demote somebody during their time of weakness.

2) It's an additional deterrent towards rage deletion. It's one thing to be humiliated in front of the person that beat you, ie "Admitting crushing defeat..." it's another for the whole world to know it.

3) It allows characters to talk about the person after they've "gone into hiding." I'm the type of player that won't acknowledge that someone is gone until I see their Battlefield post. But that puts me in an awkward position when somebody posts a Battlefield post and then reactivates a few days later.

I don't really want a list of the recently cowardly, just a one time gecho such that only those will have received word. This at least allows for some kind of dialogue on the matter as those who know pass it on to those who don't.
