Ability to send PRIVATE MESSAGES to Other Players - And it’s also ABUSE PROOF!!

[romasanta]

I have a very simple suggestion that will surely satisfy millions and millions of players if ever it goes live.

UPDATE:
One must also be able to "close" his PM inbox - but I am sure if you only expose yourself to the right people then this should not be a problem. It cannot be helped that there are people that you can only get to meet in game and what is wrong about being able to send them a message just like in any other normal game.

One must have the ability to PM other players. I remember my high school days when we played the first MMORPG in 2D they already had that feature.


I understand that there might be problem with spams but the solution to that is to only be able to send just a specific amount of PM to a certain player in any given period of time. In excess to that it would show the normal “Player’s inbox is full” red message – thus reserving the PM only for important messages.




HOW did I come up with this?


I actually suggested this in their google playstore page but to no avail. When I started playing I encountered a clan with the same last name as mine. And they are from another country. I was really curious so I really wanted to PM the leader and ask him why does he have our last name as his clan name – perhaps he’s family, which would be great! Unfortunately you will not be able to just chat anyone and join their clan. In my case their clan was set to “closed”. So what to do? Nothing!


What about trash talking?


I realized that one could be spammed with trash talks which no one appreciates. To avoid that one should have the capacity to block certain players from PMing them and/or add the capacity to report like in Global chat. That way people would think twice before sending rude and harassing PMs.


That is all. And cheers to SC for this great game!!

I still don't and never will support this feature based off of how clash is today. You're just asking for individuals (women.) to get provacative messages over and over. You're asking for the top 200 to be spammed (join my clan!!!) and their inbox filled in 2 seconds making this useless to them. Even if you made it clan only; you're going to have people put in place mutiny and disloyalty. One can simple find their social network capabilitys; and use them. There is no need for this when Facebook,Instagram,line,kik are all alive. All of these are way better and safer than any versions of pm within this game.

Wait for the clan to open. Issue solved.

Thank you for your feedback.

I updated the suggestion so that some people can close their inbox if they dont want to be bothered.

@disloyalty

with or without PMing unloyal members will and will always be disloyal.

Its your flaw as a leader if your members aren't loyal to you

hey,

I will add my 2 cents to bumpy bump this thread a bit

So, my opinion about PMs is that they should implement only for clan members for better communication specially during wars, when u want a specific max troop from someone that is in different time zone. That would improve communication a lot.

I have few ideas, maybe i will share with u.

GanjaSandwich has the right idea ... there are other tools (Facebook, Google Hangouts, etc.) to communicate, if that is a desired feature.

CoC is not a social networking site, it is a game. If you want to send private messages to other players, there are a lot of ways to do so through third-party sites without SuperCell effectively implementing an email server.

U better find a new clan and u will change your mind
