Things that could be added to the new Profile GUI

Sorry can't add a new topic to development and suggestions and couldn't find something in there that suited.

It's getting a little confusing to know where to put things in here guys.

 

Anyway, these are some things I have talked with Ash about over the months coming up to the new profile GUI being released.

I feel we need to open up the forum to players more as many players do not even know of the existence or importance of the forum and what it offers.

Also I have added something I know will cause some controversy, having seen loads of roleplay and rl discussions in this forum I think something needs to be done.

I know that some of the people that are complained about, the ones that want to use roleplay as an excuse to deceive will still choose to set their settings to RL details, but at least here they will have to admit to themselves they are lieing.

Most i feel will set it correctly and we will gain from that and I feel it will help in what has proven to be a problem in here.

 

 

 

Somewhere we can leave a message for everyone

As nice as this is, I'm not sure just how many honest people are willing to give they real details.  Too many 99, 69 and such listed for age, M/F playing reversed roles.  I do give my age and such but I don't want everyone knowing my more than what I choose tell.

I do like the look and messages without gifting is nice as well.  It allows users to communicate when not online easier.  The forum link is nice, gets more exposure for it.  The Events tab is nice if you can list them by date as something that's automatic and a check box for what we want to keep or remove so we only see those events we want to attend.

I can see the ability to set sort of a "Status" message would be kinda awesome so you can let people know what you are doing, or just put a message there if lets say you are afk or something like that.

 

But the rest of it honestly to me would just be more confusing than anything, im sure the people that are interested in the things here on the forum will go here and check it on their own. An idea could be like make it possible for us to link directly to the forum from that status message thing i mentioned earlier.

 

And again, the RP thing and the real life details thing just does not seem needed to me, i mean... i see tons of people having it written at the end of their profiles that they are a RP avatar and thats all they are interested in. If you are planning on sharing RL details im sure there are better places to also do that, like Skype and other instant message apps.

 

Thats just my take on the whole thing, no offense meant at all :)

Just to clarify a couple of things.

The links to the forum would be links that you choose to put there, if you don't want to have any there is your own choosing.

I thought it would be good to be able to advertise an event you think people would like to know about, or one you are throwing yourself or something you find of interest on the forum.

 

The details for real life will only mean that you are a 22 year old female, if that is what your avi is and you have on your profile, not giving out all information about yourself like some seem to think.

For me and I believe a lot of others in here, I think it is our business if the person who sends me a pm is actually a 22 year old female or is someone just pretending to be.

Sure there are people that it doesn't matter to, but there is also plenty of us where it does matter.

There is also those that would not like it at all as they will not be able to have people believe they are something they are not without having lied on their profile.

If you choose to just let your friends know who you really are that's fine, but for the rest of us why not let us know you are roleplaying, what is wrong with that.

Unless there is some sort of benefit to it that I cant see yet I cant see anything wrong with it.

The only benefit I can see for people to not let people know they are roleplaying is something they really shouldn't be doing anyway.

I don't understand why I even have to tell you that, I didn't sign a declaration when I joined saying I must tell everybody my correct age and sex on my profile, so it can put their mind at ease about who they are talking too. I am not a Troll and I would never on purpose hurt anybody. Having been here a while now I know who my friends are, and  I know who the trolls are, I don't need it to say their correct age and sex to tell me that.

And so for a person who feels totally like a female, but is trapped in a male body in rl, do they have to put male and real life, or are they expected to put female and rp, even though they are not roleplaying,  its what they wanted to be born as. 

Anyway, everyone has different views on the topic, and has been discussed in other threads.

As for announcing events...good idea.

I don't think there is anyone in here that really has deliberately gone out to hurt anyone, well would be very few if there is.

Having said that though there has been people hurt by the exact things we are talking about here.

There are people that are not intentionally going out to hurt anyone but are willing to take the chance on that happening.

I to know who to stay away from and who my friends are in here, the ones I am thinking of are mainly the new players, the ones that a good percentage of get frustrated with this and do not stay.

I know no one signed up to say they have to state their real age and sex, but I am not saying you have to, just put roleplay on there and you can say what ever you want.

I understand what you mean about the girl being trapped in a male body, but would we expect guys to be happy to have sex with them in rl, no we wouldn't, so why should we in here.

He could do as some have in here and state that in their profile, say they are a girl trapped in a male body and try find someone that will accept that.

When they don't let people know then they are using the people they get together with knowing they would not do so if they knew the truth, and those people did not sign up to be used in that way.

In rl I was brought up to trust people to a certain extent until they do something where they prove they cant be trusted, in here we are expected to distrust until they prove they can be trusted.

Is 3DXChat expected to be a place where girls trapped in male bodies, old people trying to be young again and all the other things they try to hide behind roleplay to get what they want at the expense of everyone else in here.

We all know that people have been hurt through this sort of thing and will continue to happen, new players are being sort after by these people who choose to hide who they really are and it has a huge effect on the growth of the game.

As I said before people don't sign up to be used, to find out the hot girl they had sex with was actually a guy, we need to start thinking that 3DXChat should not be a haven for people to come in and fore fill there fantasies at the expense of others.

So if I was a person trapped in a body I don't like, and I come here thinking I can be treated like the female or male I wish to be in real life, and without prejudiced. Are you saying people then  should not have sex with me because in real life I am not the gender I dream to one day be?

No I am not saying that at all, I am saying you should give the person the choice on if they want to or not, not make that decision for them.

Right... well i wont comment too much on this as my opinion is so far off yours and that would just lead to more bad stuff than good stuff.

 

To keep it on topic, ill just say this though. The ones that want to play this as a fantasy and not involve RL will just fill out the RL thing you talk about with their made up stuff, so it will make no difference at all.

This convo goes round and round on the subject of deceit in game...and honestly I don't know if anything will actually prove a deterrent or even if it's the right thing to do to try and put deterrents in...I guess it is but it doesn't sit well with my sense of laissez faire. It does depend what you come here for I suppose...but I'm lucky to not be affected by it so its hard for me to evaluate and comment.

 

Twigs does have some good ideas as always though...love the forum linkage idea :D tis where I spend most of my time lol

 

I will be interested to see...what, if anything happens off the back of this...

My opinion is, we have many players where use the game as a kind of social Networks with "X"...

I like the Ideas for a sign who plays for fun and who want use this as a kind of Social networks.

 

Maybe we should not only difference between this two things "Real life" & "Role Players"...

Why not also other specified!?

 

"Real life", "Gamer", "Role Players"

 

Or let the choice free for use or not :)

Going to keep this short and sweet . Everyone has a right to play the game as they see fit. But when your "right" infringes on anothers right to play the game as they want, then something is terribly wrong. You can hide behind the "im trapped" excuse all you want. deception is deception no matter how much you sugar coat it. You can put perfume on a a pile of crap all you want but at the end of the day, Its still  shit so to speak.

 

Not singling anyone out, Talking in general. As far as twiggys ideas, I like most if not all. Personally i could care less who is who behind the avi but i do respect those who do.

As far as forums go, I would argue that the problem isnt that people dont know about it. Its that the same topics are beaten to death, over and over. This very thread is the perfect example and yes i am guilty of it also. It has turned many off to the forums. A t least from what a lot have told me who use to post regularly

thats also one thing i dislike, that we cant open own or new threads in development and suggestions!! cause now with mods, that should be easier to handle as in the past! and hey, honestly, since the mods gave this forum a cleanup and more structure and are still doing this daily, you actually find things in seconds now! just have to get used to it^^

 

 

As far as forums go

 

banging_head_on_keyboard2.jpg

 

robt, u know i like ya, but yeah, as far as forums go, well, why the hell do we always need a double post, when we just shortly posted something?!? i dont get it and plz dont get it wrong dude and hey, ur not the only one, saw it quiet often in here and actully its the first forum im my life iv ever seen ppl doin this and so why not just edit the post one posted before, add a hyphen and write it under ones first thought!? but hey, earth is still turning and it wont stop if u continue.....just thinkin and writn...runs, ducks and takes cover behind the guyz, what ever gender they may have, behind the bar^^

 

didnt log in here for 3 weeks (but follow the forum daily) and also ingame only collecting my goldrent and straight out again and that till it gets colder in europe again, but lol, first post and "rants" on robt hahaaa, well maybe its because i host a own forum of my community and its just simlpy my job "to moan and grumble" sometimes hehee but at the end of the day ur right, at lot of times things get beaten to death in here and not to mention nice namecallings also sometimes, but thats a other story^^

 

 

 



 

nice ideas twiggy

 

and as usal, like em all of your ideas! good idea with having the possibility to ad forum and eventlinks *claps loud* real live i would maybe add speparatly as a tab like forums, for those that want to share the infos and for the gender part i also had an idea like that! i was also gonna make a animate-bitch-post this weekend to push the idea of clubs in this game like already "during a debate" but it sure got lost again between other posts n ideas and so ill set it up in an extra thread/topic morrow or in this topic maybe, cause u know how ppl can cry or as robt wrote, discuss and beat soemthing to death! so good you brought it up, thx!! so once i had a simluar idea like u and was making this pic below this week for club pushing, i added the gender idea i also had in there and think it could bring the game to an "other level", cause u all know: the most lies ull ever get to hear are during a war, before an election, after the hunt or fishing and of course...at 3dx!! and i dont only mean the gender issue with lies with that, generally!

instead of only givn the coice for only 'Roleplay' and 'Real life', cause i for example dont roleplay or 'hollywood' about my gender orientations,
simply 2 in me, like 2 ofm of me in the game and id also go a step further and give the ppl the choice either to select their gender in the ingame profile or when creating an avi for: male, female, shemale, transgender and whatever which way one choses, it could be shown or seen like in the profile shown below!

 

wt7osrfjxi9l.jpg

 

and as chilli wrote, maybe one should also let the choice for real life facts or infos in there free to fill in if one wants or not, if i didnt get him or twiggy wrong^^ besides alt-invasions the gender part is one of the biggest issues for those who mind or care in the game and yeah i know, also content and its delivery speed bla, hahaa...but we also all know...3dx, patiencia est ~ patience! to bring "the story" to an end: well like that, especially new players, but also others that mind, would know straight away whats going on and know with what they are dealing with and maybe, and yes i know, also there ppl can and would lie, but maybe it will finally end or atleast let us have less debates about genders in this forum and game, cause that will otherwise be: the never ending story!

just my 213 dollars and 15 cents | have a nice summer, both of us will be back ingame shortly before it gets colder in europe again...well, thats the plan^^

I was trying to hold back to avoid replying as I wanted to some people that wrote here, but I will stick to my polite side and I won't address to anyone specifically. So the latina inside me half wins today because I'm going to half-comment on this matter.

 

Without mentioning any names, I see a lot of immature comments. The person that started this topic, being my friend or not (and not taking sides here), decided to put effort in giving somes ideas. Ideas that even if they were to be implemented would be OPTIONAL for God's sake!!! IF there was a tab to be filled with RL stuff, you could fill with xxx or whatever, if you didn't want to go ahead with providing rl information.

 

I don't get it why some people freak out completely when someone posts ideas that involve providing rl details like age, interests, etc. It would be optional, guys! And even then, unless you're a serial killer irl afraid of providing your real age because you could be tracked bcoz of it, I don't think that they could trace you based on the info about your age. But maybe I'm mistaken... Unless you're a serial killer with 150 years old and you made that info known on a sex game... 150 years old ... Not many around... Probably they'd catch you... Hmmm... Now that I think about it... Seriously people??

 

And this game is composed by different people with different wishes. It's about respecting each other. I don't plan to get married in game, ever, but found the wedding stuff cute, for example. As long as the devs don't make me pay more because of something that I don't want to do in game, what difference would make?? They can release a magic ring and a jungle to transform avis in monkeys to have wild sex in the jungle and do monkey sounds and fluffy monkey babies... I don't care. I won't do it. But If some players want it, bring it on. As long as the monkeys don't throw bananas at me while I sunbathe in the jungle in my red bikini.

 

... Seriously ppl? I think that's about time to respect others a little more.

 

 

Great ideas, Twiggy.

 

 

Edited: well, it seems that some of the immature comments were deleted by their author or mods. Either way I'll keep my post. :)

It was a ironic meaning of Paloma and I agree with her!

In Twiggy's post are a lot good and awesome ideas and I'm sure if some of them are interesting for the Devs and some of them comes true so need no one use this functions in this form. Maybe it will be the same as with the Age or Location. Who want to use can it and who not....

I was not being ironic, I was giving valid examples of what could be a reality. :P

10 years old kids can't play 3dxchat as it's against the laws. So... are we discussing reality / rl facts now? I thought that you were one of those were defending that if we want rl things/reality, 3dx is not the right place for it and that we should look for that in other places. I'm a bit confused now. :)

 

Anyway, Achilles was right. I was showing my point of view in an ironic way. As I said I was not addressing to anyone specifically.
