PBP Feature: Add Private Conversation / Message Thread

New Feature Addition · Rpg characters (heroes) · Created by lanxtim
declined
This feature is essential for a play-by-post campaigns, especially any with intrigue.   1. Allow a character hold a conversation with another character that shows in the feed, for easy recognition and replies. 2. Allow the GM / World owner to view these conversations. This is usually so the gm can moderate any interaction, for in-play or social contact reasons.   Potential Wishlist Item: Allow the GM to start conversations as an NPC.
 

The Team's Response

This is declined due to the fact that very similar PBP functionality is already announced for the FORUMS features coming up quite soon.

    This goes hand in hand with the Play-by-Post feature I suggested.

    Gracious, yes please! I would love to be able to send messages to specific Players from my Storyteller screen in and out of session, without having the World Owner create an individual "subscriber group" for each single Player. Many times I don't mind other teammates / the Public seeing the message, but I want only the target to get to respond to it. And if I could specify an NPC from my Supporting Cast, that helps the Players *and* encourages me to create (person) articles for each NPC.I'd vote 300 if I had the coins for it!
