i think it has been suggested, actually i know it has...
im not sure what the response was, but its something that would be very very helpfull...
sometimes im on tus and not AG, and someone trys to contact me via shoutbox, and i dont notice.... and im sure thats the case with others as well... for instance im trying to contact barman right now but the puto is too blind to see :P
a little messaging service like FaceBook has would be awsome, just a small popup in the bottom right hand corner... maybe also you can make it so only people on your buddy list can message you (there is a buddy list on tus, the only usefull thing it does that i have noticed is makes peoples names bold at the bottom of who is online, i have all of mm bold so i can see whos online lol)
or does the buddy list do more? i dunno...
anyway back on topic, a small message box would be awesome, also if you could make it play a sound when recieving a message would also be pretty cool...... :X
It's called Snooper?
Only thing missing there is an ignore Chelsea clanner or Katsis pro 2vs2 request ;D
the ratio between usage/utility and work involved to do this and maintain this is something like 1:100000000000000000000

Sometimes the server of the site is very slow, when a lot of people are surfing it. I think this would make the site more slower (so an other chat server should be used to this I think). And there are also some snooper programs ;)
The Wheat Snooper.
We do not need an instant messaging service on TUS.

time will tell how wrong I am

I see MI ;) I knew you are working on it, it was obvious, that this system is not the best now ;D btw gl with this site, you are doing a nice job :D I created a hungarian league of worms and I didn't really like when I went to the site and I saw messages, that you should do this and that (But I did all the requests :D), but at least there were activity there sooner :D
Nice ownage MI!
ok this looks great MI!! gj!!
ropa: your right.... as far as your needs go, being you dont play w:a...
but those of who do, might like this feature.
MI that looks awesome, you should easily get a web dev job by showing off this site if you havn't already.
The theme looks great for the IM.
agreed...
and with my 15+ years experience or however long i have been playing, i can honestly say MonkeyIsland is the best thing to happen for this community...
he is a genius! and he is the best mod ever, honestly...
not only is he not biased in any way shape or form...
but he does it for a passion, and a commitment and love for the game.
many mods in the past do it to make a name for them selves, and be seen, and noticed as some type of leader, and let the power go to their heads in some sense...
not all took it to the extreme kiro stupid ass took it... he was a special case...
but monkeyisland is such a low key guy, and just a loyal leader! he truly is the best mod, and the best leader!!!
he is the founder, and leader of this current W:A community, and i hope it stays that way for the rest of w:a's life... and i hope that is for a long time to come...
im drunk rigth now, thats why i ramble, but i want to give a big thank you once again to MonkeyIsland for all his hard work and dedication... he is a true leader!! not of a clan... not of a "community" but of w:a!!!
there are 3 things that come to mind when i think of keeping this game alive... deadcode, cybershaddow, and monkeyisland!! there has never been a 3rd after dc and cs as far as league admins is concerned but MI has totally earned this..
and not just because of instant messages being impilemtned lol.. its just everything!! all his hard work and dedication and his personaltiy and demeanour
im drunk!! but thank you MI :D
Hmm avi, I think you would actually lick MI's ass if you met him when you were drunk mate. But apart from that, I agree with a lot of what you said. MI's a different leader then what we experienced through many different timeperiodes of the 00's, in a positive way.
A really lovely drunken post avi, I think I'd like drinking with you :D
ähh.. no..
hmm avirex seems kinda normal if he is drunk :o

Yes, much better improvement over HHC, right?
I still don't see the practical point of this, having 10 snoopers, a web one and a bunch of other means of communication. But hey, features, right? Millions of features.
I was looking for the "I like" button. Couldn't find it, MI?
ropa, i dont use snooper... ropa... do you use snooper?
ropa, does everyone use snooper?
i think i all ready gave my reasoning for this, go back and read it.. speaking of features, wheres the slap ropa button..
back to the drunkin post huahuahauha, i think ur right crazy, when im drunk i would lick monkeyislands butt hauhauha i dnot even remember post this shit man, im kinda scared to see what else i have posted.... i think i remember being in the komo thread huaha thats the scariest part ;D
I don't need to re read your so called reasons. I'm only here questioning them. Do you understand the difference?
It doesn't scape me how this will be useful to you, a particular case of a person who doesn't use snooper just because. And who is particular, generally speaking, when common sense is concerned.
Now, what I'm wondering here, and I think it's a very legit concern is: is there a need?
Please try to give me an answer that applies to most people, not you and TdC who will use it constantly to troll, in your case, and to say good night, in theirs.
If someone wants to look for a game, most people, I'd assume, jump into ag or into snooper. If one has a worm pal such that they consider each other friends, then I'm sure they already have each other in MSN, Facebook, or heck, they might be happy enough with the PM function. You even have a place for your trolling needs in the forum and in the shoutbox, so what's left?
Now I'm aware that some other people, you included, don't like this modus operandis, when communicating. The concluding question would be, are there enough of you people in order to prioritize coding this and having it use the already lackluster bandwidth when there's, I don't know, a bunch of other things that could do with an actual improvement?
And MI's reasons are pretty clear, since day one, popularity is his main concern (not his personal, but this website), so whatever would mean more people in the website/more users/more traffic is a good feature in his eyes, whatever the loss that comes with it.
These are my sincere thoughts, I excluded those that implied your mother, for respect.
I agree with you Ropa, except on the parts where you insult me and my clan.
I like the idea and the fact MI is already working on it. Contacting via pms isn't fluent enough when you want a quick response. I believe many people including me don't keep their snoopers opened all the time whenever they are online. I mostly join it only when I want to play and after I finish I close it instantly. My clanmates may agree with me that I'm hardly available on #AG and they must find altrnative ways to hunt me down for clanners or anything.
Also, instant messaging provides better arranging games between 2 players such as in cup games. It's pain in the ass when I see a player online on TUS but not in #AG and with IM system I have a bigger chance to play the games I need just because the players sees my instant message and I can convince him to join #AG and play that cup game. I've already seen that dozens of times by myself.
And once more, if a player isn't using snooper at a certain moment it doesn't mean he doesn't have time to play Worms.
nice post dulek....
ropa, your just here to find "debates" and try to sound witty at any chance you get....
but im sorry my friend, there is no debate here.... it goes without saying this would be a sweet option, considering many people have requested it in the past, and monkeyisland is all ready working on it...
and here we go again "whatever the loss that comes with it" give it a rest...
and thank you for "exluding those thought that implied my mother" i really appreciate you keeping my mothers name out of your mouth... despite how much your mother has been in mine
back on topic, i cant wait for this feature.. should be very usefull and fun to troll the new rhyno of w:a
Why do I have to get mentioned by you in every thread lol? :-*
I need to make money from that somehow...
Well that's avirex for you. In the last couple of months, he has made around 15 or 20 posts stating that
a) I'm only looking for debates
b) I don't play worms
It's a repetitive broken record if I ever saw one. It's funny that he gets neither of them right. But Avirex man, why are you so insistent in making me look bad on a forum? People that know me know that when I lower myself to your level (this post) it's just a divertimento. You, on the other hand, are giving in your best. Though I suggest, please get new material, everyone is aware now on my eagerness to find debates and do anything but play worms.
Hope you take this advice and hopefully more and more people will start to take you seriously.
Oh wait he can't reply.
hahahha
looks like ropa just won his first debate :D
