Phone Notifications

[DezNutz]

This suggestion seems to have evolved.

Per CJ's posts, this seems to be at least a partial implementation for email notifications. I know that email notifications occur as I receive them when someone sends me a PM when I'm not online. It seems that CJ intended to include hostile voodoo as an email notification at some point, but I don't know if that is implemented, nor do I believe it should.

As to the basis of the original suggestion, phone (SMS) notifications, I would disapprove.

I would like to know the extent of all email notifications that have been implement, as that may give credence to where we move this suggestion.

I would have no issue with phone notification's similar to email notifications. I don't see where that would much of an advantage over the email just more of another choice. I think this one merits further discussion.

We’ll move this to discussion for now then.

I find email notifications adequate, especially in this day and age. I think adding hostile voodoo in as a warning is far to OP against the few pirates out there. A notification on attack is enough. Let the pirates have their element of surprise, thats how ambushes occur and the victim never gets a choice. The defenders who receive an alert once attacked is more than fair on their end as well and gives them the opportunity to sign on and clear / react defensively.

I would like to see the notification frequency changed to allow players to decide on either all attacks or messages, each hour, or ever 2.
