Granted, I could be wrong, but I am a bartender after all, and yes, I mean in -real- life.
Other then that, I would have to agree, there needs to be more drinks, alcholic and otherwise, mainly otherwise.
That's my two cents, don't forget to tip the barkeep on your way out, have a nice night, and walk safely.

Quote: from Jotun on 6:49 am on April 6, 2004[br]Do you really see yourself wanting to RP sitting around the drome sipping fu-fu drinks? �Ok it's an decent idea, but in my opinion not as important to finish as alot of other things that are in progress, or on "The List"
Actually adding non-alcoholic drinks widens the range of RP to the players that just have Silk to drink and give them a choice to have a prefered drink and further trace their RP.
Also by giving the drinks the way I did it takes just about a copy and paste to generate the objects and a couple of minutes, I think, to change the bartender script to include them.
It's a small add-on that greatly improves all-round RP on the server as most people tend to hang out in bars, pubs, taverns, clubs and such.
I mean, I was sitting around the other day, just wondering, "What can I do to bring him more to life? Why will make him stand out?"
And I completely agree, nothing would really throw the RP forward, than a wider selection of beverage choices.
Yeah.

I assume those 'or's are supposed to be 'of'? and …. the sweed(t). I wasn't sure if you meant to put two periods in the last group.
I like them. But maybe these are a little to foofy for red? I like the shirley temple though. Mmm Shirley temple. I remember my first character went into the Drome and asked for one and got laughed at :( It was either that or a bloody mary. I dont remember which.

I think they might be RED material as all of them are faily easy to make and use just a couple of components.
A: you'r not 21 and have never been to a bar.
B: you are 21 but have never been to a seedy, crappy bar. some of the places I've been would literally laugh you out (or kick you out) or at least make some snide remark and get you stared at if you tried to order anything with the names 'punch' or 'sunrise' in the title.
in any case I'm pretty sure that the latter is the reputation the Drome is trying to put fourth.
Look at the bathroom for god's sake, any place that has one unisex bathroom, espically one that looks like that would never serve you a shirly temple.
or make some food for the vending machines for god's sake...

I saw a point that needed tampering and put up an Idea for it. And most of all got my hands dirty and helped develop it into something that's easy to implement.
And I don't think that the coding team is stopping everything just to put a couple of drinks on RED. They are doing their thing the same as always, this is just one of those things that kill boredom for them. Somthing they can do while they go from one item to the next on the list.
If you don't think the drinks are red material, why don't you make something?
It's me. Period. Everytime I start to work on something, I either uncover something that needs fixing or get distracted by someone with a great idea.
So, some would say 'stop posting ideas', which is why some of you respond by telling them 'wouldn't you rather have cyberware', I just need to stop implementing the great ideas.
Anyway, though cyberware would be sweet its primarily a combat advantage (at least it seems like most of it is), and most everyone who's posted in this thread should know by now that combat isn't EVERYTHING.
Anyway, aside from all that, why stop with the new ideas? That just sounds silly to me. Keep them coming, and let Johnny do what he damned well pleases, because when it all comes down to it, its -his- MOO. He's just nice enough to let us play it (and argue about it.. *cough*).
