20080410 "survivors gathered" Recognize Contacts

Tilton53 20:34, 10 April 2008 (BST)

Suggestion type
Change the appearance of "There is a crowd of 67 survivors gathered here. [list names]"

Suggestion scope
I suggest changing it so that it will read more like it does when you have a group of zombies and some of them are on your contact list.

"There is a crowd of 67 survivors gathered here. You recognize Tilton53, Billybob, and Jamie out of the group. [list names]"

Suggestion description

1: It would save server clicks and bandwidth costs slighty.
2: It would make it much easier for players playing in the Mall areas or areas heavy populated by survivors.

  18. Keep - i wanna recognixzezorz miy enomies! --The Gecko PKer 04:26, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  19. Dupe The suggestion was removed for being similar to this suggestion which was removed for "game changes" (ie. colored contacts) but they aren't even the same except that they both deal with contacts. So, since the suggestions were technically removed, this is only kind of a dupe.--Pesatyel 04:58, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  20. Keep - Hells to the yeah! --Uncle Bill 05:06, 11 April 2008 (BST)

  22. Keep - Absolute perfection. --└Frozen┘┌Flame┐ 07:18, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  23. Keep - Really useful addition, doesn't harm gameplay, pretty much perfect. Charlie Jackpot 09:31, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  24. Keep - Very handy and helps remove screen clutter. --Kamikazie-Bunny 09:33, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  25. Keep - I'd like to not have to worry about the extra IP hit. And I think Pgunn is mistaken about healing - it would never take more IP hits than the current system. --Explodey 09:36, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  26. Keep - unless a valid argument comes against, and i havew yet to see it, why not, makes sense? --WanYao 10:08, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  27. Keep --Nitro378 T JNL 10:15, 11 April 2008 (BST)

  30. Keep - Makes sense. --Diano 16:56, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  31. Keep - I was actualy a bit pissed off when i first added a mate to the contacts and i couldnt recognise him out of a crowd without looking.--Carnexhat 23:31, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  32. Keep - This would be a worthy convenience. --Riseabove 03:57, 12 April 2008 (BST)
  33. keep - For viewing ease, vote here. The Mad Axeman 17:45, 12 April 2008 (BST)
  34. Keep - Rather streamlined, which is good. ~Ariedartin • Talk • A KS J abt all 13:03, 13 April 2008 (BST)
  35. Keep - I like the idea, and am voting for it, but I don't know if it would help bandwidth any. Wouldn't it force a database query to your contact list even if you didn't care who was in the room? --Slavoj 03:48, 14 April 2008 (BST)
    Re - If there server program works the way I think it works, it checks every page for contacts that match survivors and zombies, it just doesn't display them in survivor over X amount of contacts. --Tilton53 04:34, 14 April 2008 (BST)
  36. Keep - Simple. --Toejam 10:28, 15 April 2008 (BST)
  37. Keep Omg it isnt bad. --Telenti 14:04, 15 April 2008 (BST)
  38. Keep - Saves IP hits more often than not. --PdeqTalk* 04:19, 17 April 2008 (BST)
  39. Keep - time saver. Gabdewulf 20:35, 17 April 2008 (BST)
  40. Keep - I like.  Billy Club Thorton  T!  RR  05:42, 18 April 2008 (BST)
  41. Keep -Best idea ever.--Crazyloop 20:50, 19 April 2008 (BST)
  42. Keep -Well-thought out. Me like. --Kingofallpie 19:59, 20 April 2008 (BST)
  43. Keep - great idea! Of course if you're looking for people to heal you can still expand the list.--xoxo 05:43, 21 April 2008 (BST)
  44. Keep - It makes perfect sense and saves IP hits.--Kolechovski 00:31, 23 April 2008 (BST)
  45. Keep - Should have been done like this from the start.--Tormazin 19:06, 24 April 2008 (BST)

Kill Votes

  1. Kill - It actually hurts by the hit limit if one is looking for people to heal. --Pgunn 07:01, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  2. Kill - right, and if you're a caiger mall survivor and have 100 people in your contact list defending the mall from a seige you'll see all of thier names at once. extreme case i know, but i've made my point. just click list names and look for the ones that have been colour coded. as far as saving IP hit's goes, i'm completely apathetic, either play one character less, or donate, or at least quit your griping. - Jack S13 T! PC 17:47, 11 April 2008 (BST)
  3. Kill - This is a shameless attempt by bounty hunters to make their life easier. The Malton Globetrotters#31 - TastyNougat TMG 17:26, 17 April 2008 (BST)
    Re - Many people have friends that also play the game with, and as such hate having to click "Show More" on 4 or 5 squares of a mall to check if their friend is still there. Maybe you should find some nice people to add your contact before you start shamelessly blaming suggestions. --Tilton53 01:54, 20 April 2008 (BST)
