20090808 Cellphone inbox

Cold one 17:19, 8 August 2009 (BST)

Suggestion type
Improvement

Suggestion scope
Mobile phones

Suggestion description
I don't know if it is only me, but very often I miss one functionality as far as mobile phones are concerned. The problem is, you can view the messages sent by other players only once. Many times I accidentally clicked on something else and lost a chance to read the message. I would like to propose a simple, but useful solution to this problem: mobile phone inbox. It would be nice if your mobile phone could keep about 20 last messages, but even last 10 would be OK. As the number of messages is relatively small, it shouldn't cause too many problems for the server. It would make the game a bit more realistic, too. Of course, if a player drops his phone, he will lose all his messages. What do you think?

Keep Votes

1. - Keep - Author's vote.--Cold one 17:41, 8 August 2009 (BST)
2. - Keep - So long as it costs 1AP to check your inbox. However, there may be server load issues, but I don't know. Also, you get an author vote.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 17:30, 8 August 2009 (BST)
3. Keep - Makes sense. - User:Armpit_Odor/sig 17:42, 8 August 2009 (BST)
4. Keep - I like it.-- Adward  18:00, 8 August 2009 (BST)
5. Keep - I've missed many messages and can't go back to read them. It would be great to read the old messages too.--DBHT 19:24, 8 August 2009 (BST)
6. Keep - I don't even use mobile phones, but I do know that sometimes the back button doesn't work (if an action has been taken before the page is fully loaded, I think). Just saving the last message received until a new one comes would be enough -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 23:13 8 August 2009 (BST)
7. Keep - Good idea for all those people who can't be bothered to click the back button. --^TCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 00:24, 9 August 2009 (BST)
8. Keep/Change - I've had this problem before, and in the time where I was forced to use Google Chrome, it doesn't let you go back through pages so looking back at the message is impossible. I don't use them anymore but I'd like it if UD had an inbox of maybe the most recent 5 messages you received. --ϑϑℜ 01:29, 9 August 2009 (BST)
9. Keep - As above. --Bob Boberton ^{TF / DW} 05:48, 9 August 2009 (BST)
10. Keep As above. Linkthewindow  Talk  06:05, 9 August 2009 (BST)
11. Keep Cool.--Idly Hummingbird 22:24, 9 August 2009 (BST)
12. Keep As long as there's an AP cost to check it I like it. --Rohndogg1 06:16, 10 August 2009 (BST)
13. Keep Just don't make it free to do and I've got no problems. Nemesis645 15:25, 10 August 2009 (BST)
14. Keep Very cool, I found it a little odd myself that my char automatically deleted all of his messages...-Devorac 22:00, 10 August 2009 (BST)
15. Keep THANK YOU!!!!!! I hoped each and every day that someone would suggest this. --Chekken 04:15, 14 August 2009 (BST)
16. Kepp - I would like to see it implemented but it sounds like a tricky one - Zig13 - 17/08/2009 at 11:09(BST)
17. Keep - Sounds harmless and relatively useful. --Papa Johnny 20:52, 18 August 2009 (BST)
18. Keep - Dig it. This would make it much easier for me to keep track of all the ladies. --Paddy Dignam^{IS DEAD} 22:09, 18 August 2009 (BST)

Kill Votes

1. - Kill-You never try to come back and read again[last action?]? Go here maybe you can get a better idea.--(x)Alvaromesa^{Talk | Bacardi |MPD | Malton Public Radio} 17:31, 8 August 2009 (BST)

   RE: Actually, I've tried. It doesn't work. When you go back, you get a "You have no messages" notification.--Cold one 17:39, 8 August 2009 (BST)

   RE:Never happend to me...what you use Firefox or IExplorer? a bug?--(x)Alvaromesa^{Talk | Bacardi |MPD | Malton Public Radio} 17:44, 8 August 2009 (BST)

   RE: Firefox 3. I haven't tried IE, Opera or Google Chrome, but I think that if it happens even on one of them, this change is worth introducing.--Cold one 17:47, 8 August 2009 (BST) Authors are only allowed one reply per vote.

2. - Kill - I don't see where an update is needed for something that can be accomplished by pressing the "back" button on your browser.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 18:59, 8 August 2009 (BST)

   RE: Sometimes you need to see old messages too. --Haliman - Talk 19:04, 8 August 2009 (BST) non-author re -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 23:17 8 August 2009 (BST)

   It would be nice to have a record of old conversations too. That's what memory is for.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 19:23, 8 August 2009 (BST)
