Server wide message for Domain Invasion?

[Tarmarkvar]

Damn, SE's management must love the English side of these forums. Everything gets shot down by some naysayer every single time anyone posts anything.

I think this request has some merit.

The idea of telling someone to move to a backwater server, to interact with a bot on the most popular server that's existed for multiple years untouched, or to switch to a lesser used and lower ranking Unity is laughable. You do realize that any Unity items have some effect that scales with their Unity's ranking, right?

None of these suggestions are acceptable. Neither is sitting in a single zone for several minutes flipping Unity chat on and off, then sitting still in a zone for a several more minutes just to wait for an update on Domain Invasion.

The current situation is really somewhat terrible and the devs should consider making some improvement to it. The suggestion was OKAY and the replies should have been more focused on brainstorming something better rather than being a bunch of naysayers with nothing productive to contribute.

But it's not a good suggestion. For one thing, getting your chat log spammed every 10 minutes when a new domain invasion starts, with no way to turn it off, is not something I want.

Sirmarki was provided with MULTIPLE alternatives but is so stubborn that he found a way to say that each one is unacceptable. It's like if a man was homeless, so you raise some money to buy him a house. Then he says "but that won't cover the property taxes or the utilities". So you set up a trust fund to pay that. Then he says "but I don't like the color!". So, for some reason, you really want to help this man, and you give him a $2000 gift credit at Home Depot to buy paint. So the guy says "but I don't support Home Depot's labor policies and don't want to give them my business".

The idea is being shot down because:

1) It's unnecessary.
2) There are MULTIPLE easy workarounds but he has refused.

And you two are acting like children throwing a fit because you can't get exactly what you want exactly the way you want it. Getting the exact time and place of domain invasion on Asura is as simple as doing this:

/tell Whereisdi Hello

That's it. You don't have to configure anything or download anything. Literally the ONLY reason you would find this unacceptable is so that you can take some sort of stupid moral high ground. The character does literally nothing else and exists as a public service to the people of Asura. It's created by somebody who, out of the goodness of his heart, created something. You, on the other hand, would prefer to force people to spend time working on something to create it exactly the way you want it.

The options you provide were:

1. Use a bot
2. Join another unity and throw all known strategies out of the window
3. Zone multiple times to find out which area DI is active..
4. Move server.

Seriously?

What if there was a toggle? Oh wow, so hard.

Reallly? You're the one needlessly insulting others. I made a single factual post in response to a number of posts telling OP there was no need for such a thing.

"Just move to a terrible server full of lesser people and interact with a bot that SE hasn't decided to ban yet."

Yeah, OK.
