Some players have asked that the guild motd be longer. The length of this is currently 80 characters. Doubled, there's enough room where the message is displayed if I shrink the font. Otherwise, it'll have to be something that is clipped to two lines, but then you'd need to tap on it to view the longer message. Also, editing the message would remain the same (that one text line).
Would doubling it be enough? What are some use cases for motd where the text would need to be longer?

If the result is the same whether it's shrunk or clipped lines then IMO at least think the slightly smaller font for longer messages would be more ideal.Quote:

Making the font smaller is a good option to enlarge the motd, a good option to add along this motd change would be adding a guild furniture similar to the leaderboard that can be used by gm and officers to edit certain messages and viewed by guildies.
This way motd could be used to give a brief amount of info and lead guildies to check this board for wider information, etc.
Note this idea has been suggested b4, idk if it's alrdy on the list for things to add or got forgotten over the time.
A popup on the screen in a brown box white text. When you log on it will pop up on your screen and you have an option to "Do not show until new motd is posted." And "Do not show again today." Saying /motd will bring the popup back up. To avoid motd screen spam make it where the motd will not pop up more than 1 time a day in settings or an option to disable motd popup.
Box is like a house mail.

To add to this even to be able to show what the MOTD actually is the guild logs rather than just stating it was updated/changed would also be move in the right direction

So asking if it's ok to double the guild message of the day turned into: a notification for whether or not guild events are active, a guild blackboard, auto guild message of the day popup and options to disable popup, adding message of the day history to the guild actions log.
Got it. 160 characters it is.
