Title: hide phone number
Post by: Toreto on September 22, 2015, 12:08:29 pm
Hello guys, i suggest adding a command to hide your phone number
as /hidephone  or such command so when you use this command and someone try to /getphone  this text appears to him "player ID dont have a cell phone"

Regards,,

I think that they should just remove the /getphone command. It's not RPish.

i kinda agree, they should only enable it to check our own phone numbers, more rpish, yeah

ohh yeah? do you know your number? cuz I don't, I use /getphone even to get my own number...

why its not RPish? how could you remember all the phone numbers then? how could you make treating calls with you cant find the number etc etc.

A /contacts command would solve that. Use /savenumber [number] [name]. I never liked /getphone cmd. it will be cooler if we could ask each other for our numbers.

Yeah!

If we had a system like phone book then ok but no. I'd like to see an option to turn off your phone instead.

Make it disable-able for people to see your phone number, tada.

I agree on that.

I don't support hiding phone number, this is not rpish either. "This player doesn't have a phone" is not a RPish way too. There should be instead /getphone with agreement of the player who needs your phone, and you can use it on your ID without any agreement. Which is more realistic. How so? When someone approaches to you he asks for your phone, you give it to him by /getphone or simply tell him your phone number of you know it.

Theres this public book that contains everyone's names and phone numbers. You can roleplay having that when you /getphone.

/getphone is just a simplier cousin of a phonebook. If we had the ability to store other player's phone numbers (in game, no post-it notes on my desk please) and have our phone number displayed in our inventory, I would be glad. I consider this to be a minor tweak that takes time to create but bring little difference in the end.

Regarding the orignial idea... I can imagine all those prank calls already, hehe. Criminals would hide their phone numbers all the time to make the police unable to "trace" them in roleplay. If this was to be implemented, there would have to be some restrictions to it.

I suggest this topic to be locked down because the /getphone command had been removed long and players can always send a private message to another player in order to find a phone number.
