Yeah, I don't really understand the benefit of this. Adding the option to permanently allow PMs would help, and we already have /pmg as an alternative to calling.

I was just trying to come up with something nice... instead of basic. I'm tired of basic.

It's a good idea, but... There are already commands to solve your problem. Join in game, /pmoff and then /allowpm for those who need you. If you want to PM someone whose PMs are off, just put yours off and /allowpm him. He will basically get notification you want to talk to him. Simple as that. Your idea is great, but importance of it is definitely not 9/10, I'd rather say 3/10 or none at all. There are suggestions of bigger importance devs need to work on and not waste time on suggestions like this one that won't effect gameplay for most users.

I get your point, and I agree devs have more pressing matters. But that is also a large amount of work every single time we log in. I'm just making a suggestion for a simpler system, nothing more.

What do you think is the most user friendly approach here? Would not being able to permanently allow PMs help quite a bit?

Yes. And that's a very good idea also. Doesn't eliminate the /r issue, but I'll take something over nothing. At least I tried to make things more interesting.

Is there any suggestions as to how that can be eliminated? I guess we could make it select the reply to player smarter, but I'm not really sure what the best way would be.

That was the main reason for this suggestion. /r replies to the last person who messaged you or that you messaged. With the whole call feature, you'd be using /c and even if someone else messaged or tried to call you, the call would be stuck on the user you're on the phone with. That was the original intent here: make it so you can talk to a single person without people interrupting.

Despite having alternatives, why not?
Positive from me.

Hi there!
i think this would be a great idea..
In another server i'am playing there is a phone with a system similar to this system and it's makes the commnactions easy ,even if u want to speak with someone who do /pmoff .
and i agree that it would be heavy load on the devlopers but..
think by positive way as karu said when someone log in and he have the power to give a rank in somegroup about 5 players will send him a pms instantly when he log in even before he close his pmoff, and this would makes a problems with his friends becuase if someone of his friends said '... allowpm' the pms might prvent him from reading it..
i know it might be silly suggestion for some players, but it woud be a great solution for some others.
My opnion is +1
