I don't know if it was suggested before.
Messages you send could be saved too, just like the ones you receive, so you could check what you sent exactly, and when.
There would be a list, it would work just like MESSAGES but it'd show messages -you- sent.
Does anyone else think it would be useful?

Sure, but it's so easy to do this yourself it hardly seems worth bugging the coders about.
Athana2005-06-11 22:53:27
Yeah. Just memo yourself what you sent if you think its something you'd like to save. But its a nifty idea, maybe when they aren't busy with so many other things.

I just want an easier way to save messages. Keeping all the ones I want in a ungodly long list doesn't appeal to me at all. Granted, I can copy them to different text files, but that's annoying. Normally, I just clear all my messages after reading them. I don't think I've ever had past msg #10 yet in Lusternia.
Gwylifar2005-06-11 23:22:27
Yeah, what'd be cool is something like, MSG 4 TO JOURNAL. It appends to the end of the bookmarked page and then delete it. Also support MSGS TO JOURNAL. That'd be sweet.

CODE
#ALIAS msg {
 #if (NOT %null(%1))} {
  #addkey outbox %eval(%numkeys(@outbox)+1) {%-1}
  ~msg %-1
 }
}
#ALIAS omsgs {
 #loopdb @outbox {
  #echo %ansi(7)~#%key~: ~"%val~.~"
 }
}
Or something like that.
Not very sophisticated, I admit, but does the job.
It'll record any message you send and give you a list of those when you do "omsgs".
This works for zMud, obviously. Other clients can do the same and better though, I reckon.
But yeah, some command that copies your messages to your journal would be sweet. And put those journals to use...

Problem is, space, too.
Anyone remember on Achaea when some jester and sylvan and a bunch of others tried mass-spamming someone with messages? The lag got so horrible and it was just so nasty in general they made messages take *balance*. And they cleared them, apparantly, and maybe even set a limit on how many you can hold? (not sure, left around this time.)
