Game Echoes and updates to help new players

[mansa]

Hey,

I'd like to suggest some game echoes to change to give a bit more information to the players.  Primarily to give players that are new to MUDs in general more description as to what they should do.

Please feel free to add any suggestions.


Suggestion #1:  Change the quit message, "But you are too excited to leave just yet!"

Option:
Change it to -> "You can't leave so soon after you were recently in combat.  Please wait a couple minutes."

I agree here for the combat quit message.

Suggestion #1, option b (to keep it IC-ish):
"You are too excited from your recent combat and need a couple minutes to settle down before you leave."

Suggestion #2:  Change "You're now wanted!"
option a:  Someone heard or saw that illegal thing you just did, and you're now WANTED by local authorities!

Edit to add:  I have hundreds of game messages set up with color-coded highlights in my client, the that was the only other one that half-jumped out at me.  The messages are pretty clear in this game methinks.

Please change the frown echo.  Sometimes you want a quick canned social.   I don't even know if it echoes properly to the room because it's something like 'What's bothering you?'   That echo, that's what's bothering me.

It's funny because it's like Ginka's being a therapist.

The echoes in the Allanaki Bazaar can be quite alarming at first, also.
