Moderators Stif Posted March 22, 2018 Author Moderators Share Posted March 22, 2018 Also, to clear just one rank-specific scroll message, you need to use the command again with no message BUT with a comma after, for example: /som, If you use "/som." it will show "om." as a scroll message to everyone. If you use "/som", it will show "om" as a scroll message to everyone. Also, @Admin, are we able to set specific colors to rank-specific scroll messages?

Advanced Members Popular Post Dann Posted March 22, 2018 Advanced Members Popular Post Share Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) In xat 2018, we no longer get features that take 'too long' to develop. They become powers. I can not say I am happy with this power, something of this caliber would be more fit to be a FREE feature upgrade on xat. This is a low grade group power. If you put it in terms of spending: "I am paying to get a power that allows different ranks to see different messages on the scroll ?" uhh WHY? PS. features like 'games' , 'youtube player' , 'doodle' , and even the scroll system are all free features that took 'too long' but never became powers instead it was made available without needing to purchase anything. I believe It is about time admins start thinking of how to make the users happy and not just keeping their pockets full. That's my opinion on this power.

Advanced Members Brabo Posted March 22, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 This power will help a lot, it will facilitate communication including the team, just send ''/som'', will no longer need to warn one by one. Good Job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the scroller feature is available to everyone, but this is an upgrade to the scroller feature that allows greater customisation? Seems like a perfect example of what a power should be (free vs premium features). Edited March 22, 2018 by Daniel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members Jake Posted March 22, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 Nice new power, Very useful and well, I hope you can make more powers like this. Thanks for share with us . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members Bau Posted March 23, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted March 23, 2018 I was happy with this option until I saw that it was power and not a free Feature.@Admin you did a good job, thank you, but Once again disappointed! Good luck! ************ It does not cost much for such a service, and very useful, I think. But I think the free option was much better.********************************* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members Solange Posted March 23, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted March 23, 2018 I thought that it was going to be a free feature, but now that it's power, I think that it's a good power! It's really good to have the option to set scrolls for each rank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members drdrin Posted March 23, 2018 Members Share Posted March 23, 2018 Many times when you leave xat and you go offline when you return to chat it appears the message that was sent when you were offline, we already have the rodape for free, it would be interesting to have created a page similar to events and amarzena message sent by the group would be more complete the new power the person would visualize the page if it was with new power, could have thought a little but before creating this new power, good luck with new power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Members CarlosDesigns Posted March 23, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted March 23, 2018 I don't understand why something SO SIMPLE isn't a free feature. I don't think @Admin understands how important these small, simple features are. Making them powers won't increase the user base or switch up the game, not everyone has the time or patience OR money to get xats and buy something that's supposed to be FREE. 2 hours ago, Daniel said: So the scroller feature is available to everyone, but this is an upgrade to the scroller feature that allows greater customisation? Seems like a perfect example of what a power should be (free vs premium features). It's exactly the opposite. It's SO BASIC to even consider it a power. A premium feature would be customizing your name (we can do with Namecolor), or having a bot, although I do lean into the side of having bots free as long as they have premium modes (like FEX and xatbot do), and even using old fashioned smileys as we can do in the classic power is a premium feature. Something so BASIC and PRACTICAL like this power shouldn't be a power, but a FREE FEAUTRE. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a perfect example of what a power should be (free vs premium features). But I do not think we are on the same page. They grabbed a FREE feature... and in turn decided to "allow users to set it for different ranks" but ended up selling it as a power... In comparison that is like saying.. you can send free messages on your chatbox but lets make the private ones a premium FEATURE! because you've allowed 'greater customization' to the messaging system. umm... NO... All I am saying is this is NOT a quality power... NO it does not take a lot of work to do this... I apologize but with the expertise of the developers it would be sad to say that making a scroll message visibly different based on rank is a hard developmental change... that is almost a joke. This is a power they just simply threw together and no quality was added to it. If we simply stand by and not speak up, the quality of powers will continue to degrade and we will continue to allow things like these to be acceptable in the community. Again, I apologize, but these powers are not up to par, at least not to a paying user. Again, it is just MY opinion and I'm expressing how I feel about it. That does not mean it's the opinion of everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore note that /so, is only meant for main owners to use. If it still doesn't show up properly, send me a PM with your chat group and I'll try to assist you.
