As discussed in this topic: http://abandonedrealms.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10950
What's your feeling about a small mana cost being associated with "telepathic" abilities like tell and gtell? |

I think this is a turrible idea. Just why?
I'm immersed enough, having mana on tells won't make me immerse anymore. Not even a little bit. |

^haha
I try to keep an open mind to all ideas and I really don't like to shut down any sort of idea spool with negativity. It pisses me off when people do that, because the act of discussion can lead somewhere interesting. It sucks to shut things down that way.
But on this occasion, I am going to have to be one of those people who I despise. Because quite frankly, this is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard, and I feel dumber from having read it. The last time I heard something this dumb, Miss USA was talking about geography. It blew me away with how rubbish this idea is. I have never seen such unadulterated stupidty in all my life. Whoever first came up this is a remarkably stupid idiot. Codswallop. |

Lol you are the one who said they were telepathic Dav. Any telepathic shit should have a mana cost. So you are calling yourself a stupid idiot. |

For the record, Beia was the one who originally came up with this idea. Not that it's a bad idea. I mean, come on, what's 5 mana? |

if you give tells a mana cost, gossip, cabal chat, coterie chat, group chat should all have costs as well for the same "realism" reason. 5 mana may not feel like much at first but think about how much you communicate with people on all channels. |

How does that even make sense in your head. Your "good idea" is to put a mana cost on the tell command okay. That's utter bollocks. I feel the need to steer away from this drivel. Seriously. I'd recommend you not leaning out of a window, but I guess you would be too busy trying to lick it. |
