Suggestion description
A lot of killing goes on in this game. Professional killing, revenge killing, polite killing, not-personal-just-business killing... So much so, in fact, that to simply kill another player is almost meaningless. If you wish to express disdain for a particular character, simply killing that character does little to convey that disdain.

The Golden Shower action would be a vehicle for *ahem* expressing such emotion in liquid form. It would be an action a survivor would perform on a corpse, whether the corpse of someone that survivor has just killed or a corpse that the survivor recognizes on the street. It would be a wholly RP action, with no consequences to the corpse's AP, HP or abilities. It would cost 10 AP to perform.

Upon locating the corpse of a character which he or she wishes to express contempt for, the survivor would click on the Golden Shower button. He or she will receive a message stating something like "With a trickle, you express your antipathy for (corpse's name)." Attempts to repeat this action on the same corpse will be ineffective (until that character has stood), displaying a "You have already expressed your contempt" message.

The corpse, upon standing up to zombie or revived survivor form, immediately below the "You stand up" message will receive a second message stating something to the effect of "You find yourself dripping with the scorn of (character's name)." The name, naturally, would be a profile link, so if the former corpse wished to add it to his or her contact list to *ahem* express similar ire at a future date, it would be possible.

Keep Votes

1. Keep/Change 10AP is too much. Otherwise, good suggestion. If this game were cruder I'd think it should actually go in. As things are though... seems just a bit too rude for this game. Seriously *I'd* be happy if this got put in, though. I'm sick that way. ;) --Ms.Panes 02:16, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
