Report 538

Report #538
Skillset: Discipline Skill: Selfishness
 Org: Paladins Status: Completed Jan 2011
Furies' Decision:
Solution 2
Problem: Selfishness can be a great hassle to keep up for those that are wanting
to quest or do other things that require turning in things to denizens (such as
corpses when hunting for gold, etc). Simple changes can be made to make this
ability more convenient to utilize.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: Allow commands that Selfishness prevents to be
 bypassable with a CONFIRM clause after the statement.
 (GIVE <item> TO <person> [CONFIRM])
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #2: Allow only GIVE and PUT commands (and other questing
 commands) that Selfishness prevents to be bypassable
 with a CONFIRM clause after the statement.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #3: Same as Solution #1 or Solution #2 but instead of a
 CONFIRM clause, use a confirmation asking to ACCEPT
 or AGREE.

And I take it the CONFIRM clause will be unforceable too?
---[Raeri on 1/16 @ 01:19 writes]:
As long as it's not forceable, any of these would be fine.

No problem with solution 1 as long as it's not forceable.
---[Inagin on 1/16 @ 19:28 writes]:
Yeah, they will all be unforceable. I just assumed CONFIRM, AGREE, ACCEPT were
already designed to always be unforceable. Heh.

All three solutions seem to achieve the same end with slight variations. Would
find any one of these suitable.

REPORT 324-- the confirm part of the syntax was intentionally left out for some
reason at the time. That said, I think it would be a great idea to have this in
(that was the main point of the initial suggestion, not having to turn it on and
off all the time). So please do implement it!

At the time Report #324's was submitted, thievery was one of the concerns. The
part about Selfishness being a hassle for people trying to quest and stuff was
primarily ignored. That's why I'm submitting one to specifically address that.
