The MUD can now talk to the forum. Check the forum and see. Or,
if you're looking at the forum right now, check the mud.

Basically, the mud can post messages to the forum. In fact it was the Mud that started this topic. I'm not sure what all is planned for this capability, but a few interesting possibilites are:
Having certain notes that are posted in the mud automatically posted as announcements.
Automatically posting an obituary when a level 50 or hardcore character condies.
Posting events of certain quests, such as collect the 10 blahs, as they occur.
etc. |

I'm thinking of putting every note to all on the forum to begin with, it allows people to comment on them, which is kinda neat.. slight bad side though, the poster and the post main text has to merge to send it here, which means a bit might end up lost, if the note is too long. |

Nice touch. Sounds like a good idea, specialy for some things:
(1) Stories, easier to read the long ones on here than online, plus for those of us at high ranks that dont want to sit and read a 20 minute story when people could be coming to kill us
(2) Changes, provides an easier to read backlog of changes and allows for coments on them.
Way to go Dav!

Yeah, there's a lot of possibilities, at the moment though I'm being cautious because it appears to have gone too smoothly - even when it kicks up an error, the post still goes fine. Once I'm certain all the bugs are out of the system, we'll probably see herald stories posted here and on mud |
