Why not use radios, cell phones, or metagaming? Swiers' [[Suggestion:20070711_Walkie_Talkie|already approved suggestion]] explains that already. In a nutshell what you get is:
*Ability to contact strangers (radio frequencies require prior agreement on channel, cell phones require you be contacts)
*Relevance - It's close to you, not from someone six suburbs away
*Less spam - Less range also means not hearing every jackass in the city, only jackasses in your immediate area.
*Mobility - Radios/phones require you be in a powered/transmitter equipped building, and that your suburb have a transmitter. Not too good if you're on the go, or in a dangerous suburbs where powered buildings get ruined fast. There's a reason in real life that police and firemen use walkie talkies during operations, and not ham radios or cell phones or AIM. That same reason applies here.
What this suggestion adds to the approved one is:
*Even less spam - Limited battery means spammers use up their charge fast.
*Ties it to generators - Balances it out. No free power. Transmitters and cell phones need a running generator. This doesn't need a currently running generator, but requires that you have spent 10AP per walkie while one was running.
*Makes power a finite resource - Like ammunition you'd need to store up walkie power, and be smart about when to use it.

Walkie Talkie

Why not use radios, cell phones, or metagaming? Swiers' already approved suggestion explains that already. In a nutshell what you get is:

  • Ability to contact strangers (radio frequencies require prior agreement on channel, cell phones require you be contacts)
  • Relevance - It's close to you, not from someone six suburbs away
  • Less spam - Less range also means not hearing every jackass in the city, only jackasses in your immediate area.
  • Mobility - Radios/phones require you be in a powered/transmitter equipped building, and that your suburb have a transmitter. Not too good if you're on the go, or in a dangerous suburbs where powered buildings get ruined fast. There's a reason in real life that police and firemen use walkie talkies during operations, and not ham radios or cell phones or AIM. That same reason applies here.

What this suggestion adds to the approved one is:

  • Even less spam - Limited battery means spammers use up their charge fast.
  • Ties it to generators - Balances it out. No free power. Transmitters and cell phones need a running generator. This doesn't need a currently running generator, but requires that you have spent 10AP per walkie while one was running.
  • Makes power a finite resource - Like ammunition you'd need to store up walkie power, and be smart about when to use it.


Namespace Mapping

Kudos to Linkthewindow.

A site map showing all the pages in the User:Dr Cory Bjornson space. Just so it's a lot easier to organize in case I ever have to mass delete, or mass edit.
