Auto Greeting Options

[saxitoxin]

Concise description:

• Provide several automated greeting options

Specifics/Details:

• Above the chat window in new games there will be a drop down menu of several automated greetings as follows: "Hi, good luck!", "Thanks for hosting!", "Have fun!", and "DROP DEAD."
• Selecting an automated greeting and clicking "post" will populate the greeting to the chat window in the user's name.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

• I am sick and tired of having to type out "Hi, good luck" at the start of every game. I've just started posting "HGL" as an abbreviation and so have many others. This will make greetings easier.

DROP DEAD

[riskllama]

you don't want a "SUCK IT" option?

you don't want a "SUCK IT" option?

ideally that option would only activate when riskllama joins a game

This is a good suggestion.

Will it include the greetings in different languages? We must be careful not to marginalise our international friends (who already suffer the indignity of being penned into a separate subforum). Perhaps the greeting could appear in the language of the recipient.

I get a list of previously typed options when I click on the chat box - and this updates as I type

Well, la tee da.
