Right. When a friend and I were playing/messing about on CS (CyberSphere) he had the thought that if the two collaborated the end result would be staggering. And well, it would.
I had thought it was funny before how no where in these boards that have I seen (I may have missed it, but I have read nearly every post) any reference to CyberSphere and the visa versa. The MOO's are identical in base code structure, well they are both MOO's and have all the @quit, @who and so forth commands. In fact they are strikingly similar, CS has Syndrome, a bar and coffins. Sphere, dome rather similar to me. The only point of my typing that is to illustrate how well a convergence could work. Two great MOO's that are so similar could converge beautifully, unless I am mistaken on a code level this would be easy, and so I'm asking admins and players to give there opinion, please both reply as this seems like a cool idea to me. Right…. I�m trying to give this some structure, but you may have to pick stuff out from all over the body of the text. The admins here are busy coding away to create such great things as a matrix, more vehicles at some point and so forth. However CS is more established or something, and all of this is basically complete, they have had a matrix for some time, everything big thing is there. It seems like a good idea to just take that code, or that may not seem nice to Kevlar's hard work so combine them. Then all those big projects are suddenly there, and more focus can be put to little touches, in my view the little things that make Sindome better, and gives it its character. Right so CS's established largely coded content (matrix, vehicles etc) and their streets; they have streets as in real life, walking on a side walk on either side, and with junctions consisting of 4 rooms, one for each corner. Sindome could even be a dome within New Carthage, they have a shore, and to have a chrome looking dome suspended above the sea by huge struts would be great, with a tongue like road up to it, and heavy security at that road. Or obviously have either a new city that is a combination of the two or either one. SD however has a far superior and more advanced communication in the form of SIC and poses and speech than CS, especially with the new speech system. SD's clothes system is also much bigger and more developed, with CS not having oremove and owear messages in the same way, and no tease as far as I know, as well as no line break in between bodily and clothing descriptions when one's character is looked at. Sindome seems to even now like to have a focus on the little things, thing's that make RP so detailed and true to life (should look at some of the MUSH's out there, one doesn't even have clothing, you just describe it). SD's descriptions as it is known for are very good, and better than CS's. So where have I got to...CS for structure and code, and big things (scenery, streets, not clothes) and Sindome for all the higher-level stuff, clothes, speech (although that is huge), communication, and poetic/descriptive writing and descriptions (*chuckles*). In my view this would be ace, the combined skill and amount of the two, the best from both to form such a great and detailed world to RP in. SD and CS have opposite pros and cons, and just by converging basically not much actual creation effort needs to be given, it will all be there. Then the people that post small ideas throughout this topic will actually not be pointlessly doing so (is it just me who read the ideas, even thought yeah that's great...and then think but much more important stuff needs to be coded), well they aren�t pointless at all, especially not if SD and CS converged, but at the present they have very little bearing in my view. Yeah so what do you think? Both MOO's will gain so much, it's win, win, and so will the players. Think about it, a doubled user base, and if just one city is used, or a modified but single one, then the population will be rich and full, like it is described to be in both. The biggest challenge I guess is the actual converge and keeping people happy through the process, but it just seems like a logical thing to do. Well there is a big idea and thanks man (you know) for really coming up with it.
Kev's opinion of this, especially with coding the matrix would be much appreciated as well as obviously Johnny and all the admins, and you, the players.
*takes a breath* *takes a swig of cream soda* Thanks that's it, and excuse any major repetition ^_^
