MP Space Pub

[chilong]

I've only recently tried MP for just a short test drive but having read some of the other posts, I thought this idea or something similar may have some merit.

Cut me some slack on this one....I'm just brain stormin' (yeah, I know..... I smell something burnig too, OK?)

If each system had a meeting place, say like a station that was designed as a pub or "hamburger joint" where "everybody hung out" you would know where to go to swap info and stories. You could meet someone new and go on an adventure with each other ........or just blow each other up, your choice. Maybe you want to challenge the "fastest gun in the west". Maybe that'll be you. Any challengers? They know where to find you....

You would dock, enter the facility and be able to click on messages left by others and or the "proprietor" who gives random clues and info. Also chat with others docked there and team up together.

I know, sounds a little dopy but might actually be fun......AAAH..I'm already regreting that I'm going to post this....but here goes.

You can do that in chat anyway. Hit enter to start char, and enter to end it. Make sure you do end it, with an open chat you can't do anything with your ship.

You can also do it when docked. All except the part where you leave somebody a message (cool idea).
