In Game Notes Page

Would it be possible or feasible to add a private in game notes section where we can jot down private information only accessible by yourself?

I normally use notepads, but it would be useful to keep somethings listed in game, and short of sending myself in game mail there isn't a way to do it that i'm aware of.

I'd assume there would need to be a limit on the amount of individual notes one person could keep so as the not overload server space?

Would other players find something like this beneficial?
Would other players use it?

Is it feasible from an admin and development point of view?

Fleet page primarily if that's possible.
Inbox if fleet page isn't feasible.

This is great!
The game has been missing a "Captain's Log"!

I am picturing it at some corner (perhaps top right?) where you will click it, it will load on the fly (no page refresh, on top of everything else) and you will be able to make changes/close it on the fly too (no page refresh).

One page should be enough as a starter. Then we could discuss improvements.


How about this?

What about a link in the chat bar at the bottom of the screen. Also would it be possible to set it to send you a reminder e.g. I set time for 3:00 am and a instant message pops up, similar to the one you get when you receive a letter or an event happens.

Yeah that sounds perfect. Loading on top and on the fly means if you want to note down things from a message or a screen it doesn't interfere.

Aye one page is a good start point, can just have different notes on different lines for now, then maybe turn it into a memo type thing if people start to use it a lot and more space is required, but for now i agree 1 would be fine.

a great idea shaydo but how big is this one page how many letter is it possible to write in it and putting it on the right top corner seems nice
