Broadcasting Mission Board Requests
The title says it all. I suggest that whenever someone posts a request on the mission board, that it gets broadcasted on the entire server (similarly to when Thanatos' dying cry is broadcasted when dying, or when a new player enters the newbie castle, etc). It would definitely help players get their items faster.

Note : I also suggest adding a time limit to missions, such as 15 minutes before being able to post a new mission, so that people can't use it as a spamming tool.

Note : I also suggest giving the player the choice to broadcast it or not, but I don't deem it necessary.

RE: Broadcasting Mission Board Requests
I wish we had LESS broadcasts sometimes...
I really feel we already have too many silly ones, people who want to do mission board will go to it daily regardless I feel.

RE: Broadcasting Mission Board Requests
I think the addition of a new broadcast system is a bit, what's the word? Extraneous?

Either way, it won't help or hurt the game much.

I do like knowing not everyone knows about the BBS so I can get some of the missions done/turned in myself.

RE: Broadcasting Mission Board Requests
well IIRC one ID (or was it character) can only post one mission and would have to wait 30 days for it to run out...

a broadcast would be quite useful imho as it would help ppl to actually notice the board Laugh

but again what's really important is to name the person posting the mission...
we do that for ppl who trans, so i don't see a reason why something that would help shame or at least add notoriety to a person who completely disregards and abuses/disrespects the BBS mission board shouldn't expect the same treatment...

Well the trans message is obviously designed to earn kudos. Not bring potential flaming & drama like the announcing of BBS Missions might.

That.

GMs only broadcasting about the BBS now to get people used to checking it out, and informing people that it exist. We're already doing it less and less now, only once per week reminder instead of daily like last week, and eventually we're hoping that players will check it without any broadcast reminders.

I tend to ignore the birth messages and the Trans ones I actually like.

RE: Broadcasting Mission Board Requests
I would make 2 accounts with 12 novices and put them all by the board and then spam broadcast

Second this.

As for the Mission Board, I'd rather like it just stay like it is now.
