Guild MOTD
Guild MOTD
would be nice if we could type assoc and see a guild motd on the top of the guild member list.
Example:
Hi doods, check out the BBS for new quest i found.
Darkstorm Rising (Organization)

don't need too much, maybe 10 lines!

I think this is an excellent idea. It would definitely save me time. I was gonna post the idea on here myself until I saw that someone else already did. Typing out the same message to 20 guild members gets really old really fast. I think this is something that is a must-have.

I guess its not the highest priority, but it would be very nice.
Another related issue is the full page of blank space under the "staff message" when lieuts and guild leaders type 'assoc'. Maybe that would be a good place to put the motd. I wonder how difficult it would be to apply the mudmail code to this purpose.

I agree with Ebgar on the annoying Staff Message thingy. I provide below my proposed layout on how the Guild Motd should be like and a proposed change to the Staff Message section.

This screen would indicate the latest update for messages from the staff. A new command would need to be added in order to access these messages. Perhaps, assoc staffmessages or assoc inbox, or something to that effect. I would also suggest that the Staff Messages screen be somewhat similar in layout to the News layout, in that the older messages would be at the bottom and the newer ones be at the top.
Hope that this would be given some thought.

I agree with Corth that those annoying blank spaces needs to be removed and I couldn't agree with Depok more.
Mailing 20 people is at best, troublesome. Either way, I know that this isn't an issue that concerns playability, but still, I hope that this gets looked at.
