Your messages

Messages

  • Your Diplomat's portrait is beside your advisor's at the top of every page, with the number of conversations in your messages you have not read. Archived ones are not counted. Press it for your messages.
  • New message writes to any player by name. Replies stay in the same conversation.
  • Archive, in a conversation, takes it out of your messages. Find it under View Archive on your messages, where Move to inbox puts it back. A new message in it brings it back by itself.
  • Mark as unread, in a conversation, makes the other player's last message new again, so it counts on your Diplomat until you open it.
  • Each message shows your Diplomat in the mood you pick when you send it, from a greeting to a Deal sign or This means war. Pick No picture to send it without your Diplomat.
  • A message can be up to 2000 characters. Markdown works for bold, italics, lists and quotes, but not pictures.
  • A web address in a message is a link, and a link always shows its full address. The mark beside it opens it in a new tab. A link to anywhere but this game or DeviantArt asks before it opens.
  • You can send 30 messages an hour and start 10 conversations a day, or 3 a day in your first 24 hours.
  • Choose who your Diplomat is in Settings. Messages you already sent keep the Diplomat they were sent with.
  • Silicon Cat is the game's own account. It sends news, such as maintenance, and answers what you write to it with prepared replies. Staff read what you send it.

Blocking and reporting

  • Block, in a conversation, stops that player sending you anything. Unblock them from the bottom of your messages.
  • Report this conversation sends it to the staff, with every message in it so far. You can block the player at the same time.
  • The player you report is not told.
