Automated NPC Posts Do Not Good NPC Interaction Make

[Krissim Klaw]

Gaia is getting rather personal in a bad way with their auto responses.

EEP! Bugs are the scariest! Except, sometimes you can put them in mud pies and they're just a nice layer of crunchiness.

Hating on the bugs. talk2hand

My mantises are not amused Gaia.




You would think a character so into flowers and stuff would be more friendly with the insects that make them possible.

I wouldn't mind auto responses as part of the interaction if they at least kept them contained to event forums and the like. This round of auto spam feels more like an advertisement for their new cs item.

RIna is so mean!

We want more [NPC] INTERACTION. Not [NPC] spam. If we wanted [NPC] spam, we'd summon Diedrich, what with his penchant for shitting up threads. lol

More nonsense npc spam posts?

I was excited when I saw some NPCs posted, but then I realized their responses didn't make any sense.

Half the time the dragon doesn't say anything at all. I'm sure it's some sort of bug.

Which has been going on for several days. :/

The NPCs now posting in the event forum are for what? The stuff they say is irrelevant even if it mentions snow sometimes and this isn't really involving them in the event. They seem out of place.

Sometimes the NPC's spam comes off as insensitive or offensive - particularly if the trigger word is in an extended discussion or life issues thread, and it's about a touchy topic, and suddenly this NPC comes in screaming about cake, and pie, (I'm looking at you Rina) and who knows what else :/

[Phovos]

It's bad enough it's spammed, there's so few responses that you'll see all of them within an hour.

emotion_drool I think this post did the opposite, now shop NPC's are posting in the winter event.

I like when NPCs talk, I do. But I prefer for the posts to be situational. Because not maing sense just comes off spammy.

it's even more random.

Guh, the spam-bots are so annoying. mad

Can them. stare

I'm usually a big fan of NPC interaction, these are LITERALLY just spambots. The only difference is they're not shilling Viagra.

We now have Moira to add to the list as well as Ian, Liam and other NPCs. They seem to be concentrating in the Chatterbox and event forum so that's a start.

I'd love for actual NPC interaction myself... (with the Dean naturally)
