The /random and /dice commands.

[Arky]

/random [value] Shortcut:/dice

Roll a random number between 0 and the desginated value (up to 1,000). Results will be displayed in a /say radius.
Rolls will be between 0 and 100 when no value is designated.


Anyone noticed this feature is now missing? Anyone here for getting it re added to the game? Helps with dice rolls for Roleplay, friendly rolls on wagers for gear, and even contest.

Yes, some people noticed and asked for it just like you missed the forum search feature.

It would be a good thing, indeed.

I assume they got rid of it in favor of the current Need/Greed/Pass system we have now. But yeah, it would be pretty neat to have again for other non-gear-related stuff.

In before someone points out that you didn't use the search functio.... aww rats.

Yeah sorry, was making my post from my phone while at work, it was hecktic enough signing up, didn't bother to do a proper search before hand. My bad guys.

I'd support this idea as long as it's only usable/visible in party chat. That way you keep the spam out of the public channels.

So people complain about not using the search feature, unless its a topic such as "lag sucks," "game is bad," or "I hate casuals/elitists/everyone"?

On topic, I think this could be fun but like errors said, could cause a bunch of spam.

Putting it in would encourage player casinos, and that can lead to fast gil, either by the person running it or people playing, and anyway to make fast gil without "working" for it they take out, or leave out all together because of RMTs. Putting it in for loot purposes would mean they need to change the loot system and add some type of Master Looter option.

That doesn't make any sense. How does a random roll, conform all that to RMT? Just crack down on player casinos, there's no need to remove the function as a whole. It makes no sense. :/

If it's not in the game, there is no need to police it, meaning they spend no manpower dealing with it.
