It’s ME again!
Ok, I’ll cut straight to the point. I find it kind of annoying (mildly, but it -is- bugging me) that you have to "datamem eject" followed by "hold disk" followed by "mail post" in order to send a message. Why not make mail functions part of the datamem command? Obviously you’d still need to be at a mail terminal, because the denizens of this galaxy haven’t ever invented e-mail – probably some game balance mechanic I don’t understand – but the actual command would be as follows:datamem mail check
– checks for new maildatamem mail download <number/all> [copy]
– downloads the selected message, or all messages, to the user’s datapad, if there is room. The ‘Copy’ argument (optional) would download the message but leave a copy on the terminal.datamem mail send <#>
– mails the selected note in the datapad the same way "hold disk" and "mail post" would, but skips ejecting the disk and holding it.I don’t think these are actually necessary changes, but I think they’d be cool! ^.^ Plz gimme feedback.

How is this insisting? Further, I’m getting tired of you ribbing on my ideas. If you can’t add something constructive, DON’T EFFING REPLY.

Pointless: can be done in the current code without a datapad and using fewer words."Final_Fantasy_Lover":2nhaq4p6 wrote:datamem mail download <number/all> [copy]

Somewhat useful: can be done in the current system, but takes multiple commands PER message; the only usage of this that I find remotely worthy of implementation would be the "all" functionality… a couple dozen commands to get your inbox into your datapad versus a single command is nice, and those dozen commands would be a bitch to set up an alias for."Final_Fantasy_Lover":2nhaq4p6 wrote:datamem mail send <#>

Yes, I actually think that these ideas are cool and time saving. However, would this render mail terminals useless?
I say make it a slicer skill/feat to be able to operate a datapad as a mail terminal and for those who can’t get the said feat/skill, mail terminals will continue to function as they do now.

From what I understood, the OP was saying that the command would not function as a mail terminal, it would merely be a coded-in alias to save people two commands, something that can be done in even Gmud (hence the pointless remarks, Walldon’t). However, a skill to allow a datapad to function as a mail terminal (or possibly as a note terminal if you have access to said terminal, which would be pretty pimp) would be down-right sechsey.
