Greetings, and welcome to the first of our feature votes!
This vote is for Whisper Tags.
All MBers are used to the concept of jammers, where you type the name of the recipient and a hidden message. However, they can be opened by other people, and you rely on other people respecting the privacy of jammers. In some cases, it doesn't matter if others see the information, as two users are just having a private chat. However, in other cases, such as strategic planning in roleplays, it can ruin everything if the other side read your jammers and know what you're going to do.
Whisper Tags are very similar to jammers - you type a name, and a hidden message. However, the key difference is that unless your username matches that of the tag, you cannot read it. Yes, you read that right - jammer-reader-proof jammers! You can enter multiple names, so that a group of people can read them. One disadvantage is that when you get a new player, you can't just say "I give you permission to read JediMasterWolf's jammers to the group." You have to copy and paste the information into a new Whisper Tag. You also can't just say "Jammers on Jedi only! No Sith!" You have to enter the username of each and every Jedi. S
As you can see, they can be more inconvenient than jammers, but are confidential. This means that Roleplayers can have private conversations without fear of the other site reading.
Thank you, and Happy Birthday LMB Eternal!
I drink tea.

OOC: I can see how this would be good, but i can also see how this might be annoying. I have frequently been forgotten in the New RP Jedi Order, and might be forgotten in the whisper tag.

No, if these were allowed I would combat these in the chima rp, this is a nightmare, firstly it makes jammer moves impossible to prove, also I do things for certain groups, which makes it a nightmare and how would this work with the npc tags, a nightmare for all.

Thank you, and Happy Birthday LMB Eternal! That would be a lot of effort to do but then there aren't many Jedi so.... I vote yes.

I have a question, would you still be able to use regular ones?

I have to admit, I like reading Jammers that are not addressed to me! So I do not like this idea.

Definitely no. There seem to be more disadvantages than advantages. Edit: Also, I just realized, if these could be used outside of RPs, users could use them to gossip about other users behind their backs.
