Immortal43 - Thu Jun 01, 2006 5:59 am Post subject: Members Joining Notification.... This is of lately a very relevant option that needs to be implemented... If new members have applied but not yet accepted, make a notification for the emperor/shoguns/daimyo's whatever...it could be as simple as having a (1 new) next to the dynasty name...I don't care really This is probably the easiest thing u'll ever have to code to put in there too...lol bagga - Thu Jun 01, 2006 9:47 am well this notification should be in all 3 pages even if it don't say number just a ticker will be ok like "NEW" member need to be accepted. Immortal43 - Thu Jun 01, 2006 4:40 pm well yeah, i didn't really mean on the dynasty page, i meant beside the dynasty name where it says Welcome Malevolent (VIP), from Demon Blade E-1337 dynasty, but i was unclear lol Ansem - Sat Jun 03, 2006 12:26 am Yeah, as long as it isn't some kind of gigantic popup a notification would be okay. I don't think daimyos and peasants would need to see it, but shoguns and emperors most definately. I like the idea of the number of new aplicants beside the dynasty name (Welcome Ansem, from The Untouchables dynasty), or maybe beside the "Dynasty exchange" link.. Jaded Fairy - Sun Feb 25, 2007 11:17 pm I agree, it would make it alot easier with accepting new members into the dynastys. stulax18 - Mon Feb 26, 2007 3:11 am if would have to go on the dynasty page itself somewhere, otherwise if might not be seen. I was looking around, and a good place might be to have it in a different color next to the Dynasties button on the left side. It could said Dynasties (New Member) or something like that. Yarold - Sat Sep 13, 2008 9:49 pm done purplemkayel - Sun Sep 14, 2008 12:15 am Thank you! The message gave me a giggle, love it! 
thepossum1 - Sun Sep 14, 2008 2:59 am Yes, thanks Yarold!!! Love this new feature--nothing like something useful that also gives you a little chuckle 
MUSHpark - Mon Sep 15, 2008 3:43 am Thank you... a GREAT feature you added. Jeanne - Tue Sep 16, 2008 7:51 pm Would it possible for the yellow bar (which is often mistaken for the mail notification) to only appear once and then go away? I find it a rather annoying feature since we (in the MMC Mob) don't always have room to accept right away. Tsai - Tue Sep 16, 2008 8:34 pm Or give the bigger dynasties the option to turn the feature off... Because for smaller dynasties (like mine  ) it's really a great feature!!

Make it a different colour?? slatown - Wed Sep 17, 2008 2:19 am maybe their could be a "hide" option? Metalteo - Wed Sep 17, 2008 2:26 am The alert is only displayed to shoguns and higher ranks. Jeanne - Wed Sep 17, 2008 10:17 am
So I should ask for demotion to solve the problem? [ Added: Wed Sep 17, 2008 11:21 am ]
Would solve half the problem Boss ThePriest - Thu Sep 18, 2008 12:39 pm or what if it was just made available only for emperors and kampakus, since most of the time they are the ones doing recruiting. and if they are both offline, then any shogun that is online from the the dynasty can look up the dynasty page every 15-20 minutes for waiting members. Metalteo - Thu Sep 18, 2008 2:36 pm
That might work for only a few dynasties, in a lot of dynasties even the daimyo's have permission from Emp to accept new members. The suggestion for alert was made, because joiners were waiting too long, before being accepted. Only having alert for Emp and kampaku makes the alert useless for most dynasties. MUSHpark - Thu Sep 18, 2008 9:21 pm
Agreed on both counts. I love the alerts. This discussion brings up the idea again of having dynasties able to separately configure their permissions (add/remove members, make/break alliances) and perhaps even these alerts, to various levels of players. dimidola - Thu Sep 17, 2009 11:55 am maybe add a sound too?? optional, of course.. (if the bar annoys people, I bet the sound would drive them crazy!) 
City of MT - Thu Sep 17, 2009 1:19 pm Wow, you just bumped a thread a year old... Anyways, give us an option to disable the bar. Zidane - Thu Sep 17, 2009 7:55 pm
I have another suggestion. Why is the yellow bar telling me about joinings "more useful" than the yellow bar telling me about mails? As shogun I have the "you were hit with a rock..." or "new member eagerly..." stripe visible ALWAYS because we are always waiting to some joinings to fix something and thus I have to look to "Mail" if there is some number telling me they have a new mail? May I suggest something like merging the messages if shoguns and above have some joinings in the dynasty AND some new mail? Something like "new member is eagerly waiting for acceptance and you have new mail too" or something like that? DemonicJ - Wed Aug 31, 2011 12:05 pm will this help?? click to view Jeanne - Wed Aug 31, 2011 12:20 pm Whoa  If we can't get another alert for mail, like a red (maybe flashing?) "NEW" appearing at or over mail in the menu ..... then this is the only and best suggestion to the problem I have seen ...why have it taken so long? ... Would that be hard to make? How soon can we can get it? We've waited yrs already 
It would be a great help for us in dynasties where it's only emp and maybe 1 more accepting members, I come on and see a joiner and hurry to accept because they have waited long already and then I see I have a mail alert that was hiding under the joiner alert and the mail say not to accept yet cause 1 of my members is already on it waiting for response from the joiner. Alba - Wed Aug 31, 2011 4:05 pm This topic was dead from 2 years ago, it's ok guessing everyone was happy with how the bar is working? Anyway, I don't find the point about changing it. I'll use Frank's words...
really you have shoguns that can't find a mail or can't click a [x] when the bar is there? bluebell_rose - Wed Aug 31, 2011 6:20 pm As a long time member. I do like a notice telling me that I have a mail and a joiner. When you get both at the same time, it's a lot more darned convenient to have both alerts at the same time instead of one masking the other. Having both bars show up at the same time would make things alot easier and lots more conveient and easier. Alba - Wed Aug 31, 2011 6:41 pm Hmm... sorry, really it's this hard for shoguns, kampakus and emperors?
Jeanne - Wed Aug 31, 2011 7:15 pm
No one say it's hard but it's inconvenient when 1 alert hides the other and you beat me to it, I don't know if its hard for shoguns, I am emp but mostly I am a person who can't see through one alert and find the other. Not using chat I use our mail system to communicate with my members and a disguised mail alert means I seem to ignore a member. I know I can look at mail in menu and see if there's a number but it's so small that it doesn't catch my attention. Ferrari - Wed Aug 31, 2011 8:29 pm
wooow demonic, that would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [ Added: Wed Aug 31, 2011 9:35 pm ]
alba that is not a nice answer, i am not laughing....i think its sarcastic jeanne i totally agree with you, and i think demonic is also, Why did he otherwise make the example, its great 
Alba - Wed Aug 31, 2011 9:09 pm
It's just your opinion  I'll ignore this kind of comments (but you can keep saying them, i know you like it and i'm glad if you get happy so easily )
------------ I wasn't being sarcastic, what i feel is very surprised because it was all good during last two years. Jeanne - Wed Aug 31, 2011 10:06 pm No it was never good, the topic was being killed by the admins with either smock condescending remarks like yours and the one you quote or silence. There never were any ideas/suggestions to solve the annoyance until today thanks to Jay apparently browsing old wishes and trying to come up with solutions. Ferrari - Thu Sep 01, 2011 4:56 am To be honest, I do not come with ideas because there is always an admin with comments, and generally not nice comments (guess who) that's why I com no longer with ideas or solutions. There are plenty of things that needs improvement/correction/change for the better ...... but because I do not make a topic about that subject , does not mean it is good !!!!! (Sorry when i use wrong words, My English *****) DemonicJ - Thu Sep 01, 2011 9:25 am
Ferrari, all comments/suggestions/ideas are taken seriously. Im currently looking through all previous suggestions to see what if anything can be done. Yes not every idea will be liked by everyone & some will comment negatively (even admins). Post them anyway, as the idea you didnt post, may well be the idea to unlock an even better site Jeanne - Thu Sep 01, 2011 2:20 pm Off course not all ideas will be liked by all but for an admin to answer:
Means that if the admin don't see the point (maybe because she is in a dynasty where many pitch in?) then there is no use for the idea. That is arrogant, condescending and disrespectful. Not to mention:
implying I and my members are too stupid to figure out how to close the alert. doesn't really say: come with your ideas. Dear Pilar: sometimes if it's HH and I have tons of tabs open or for some other reason can't deal with the joiner right away, I keep the bar open so I wont forget there is a joiner waiting, I don't have a team to take care of things for me and I do sometimes forget things. If members mail me at the same time I will appear to be ignoring them. I still vote for 2 separate alerts both in plain sight so even forgetful overburdened idiots like me can see I have 2 things waiting to be dealt with.
Ferrari - Thu Sep 01, 2011 2:53 pm
I am also to too stupid to figure out how to close the alert, for the same reason as jeanne... I also vote for 2 separate alerts jassej - Thu Sep 01, 2011 9:43 pm I find it great, also make it 
Jeanne - Fri Sep 02, 2011 5:57 pm I want to make something clear: I did not mean to attack Alba as a person. In the previous suggestion thread where I posted, I attacked the negativity that always comes up in threads here and in this thread I wanted to say to Alba / the admins that it goes both ways. They too have a share in how the tone becomes in threads, how their replies can frustrate members to the mudslinging corner. (insert waving peace flag emoticon here) bluebell_rose - Sat Sep 03, 2011 7:25 pm I like the double bar. Much more convient and easier to manage the dynasty. I do have members that won't come into chat for whatever reason and i don't try to push as they are core clickers and if they don't want to, I don't push. In fact I had one member tell me she would only return if I did not ask her to come into chat and since she's a 1k clicker with min avg of 1000, I complied and allowed her to just click. I communicated with her via mail. So you can say yes I do need the alerts. I don't need it hidden. Since nearly all the big emps are for it and want it badly, why can't we have it? Why? why?
