|
|
Would it be possible for there to be a Jaddan only verb to quickly do a "glance" at another Jaddan to try and figure out which one of them is considered higher in the social rankings?
I don't know why, but I just envisioned my character running into another Jaddan, and standing there bantering for about 5 minutes before we finally figure out who needs to do what in the ritual. Heh! I think the ale/female thing would be the most obvious, but perhaps a way for a Jaddan to look at another Jaddan and get a *rough* estimate of which one seems to be wealthier or is older since that may not be readily apparant?
Well...I suppose taking measurements on the amount of scroll one's fluff gives others would be one way, but I don't plan on wearing that much stuff and I hope others don't as well.
Of course, maybe you guys already have some kind of greeting verb in mind that already figures all of that out for us. _________________ Help! Help! I'm being oppressed! |

I'd given this some thought in the past, yeah. I don't know how folks feel about having their wealth (not exact wealth, but still) revealed this way, would love to have feedback. _________________ "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something." -- Plato

That simplified, straight forward message could work as it doesn't reveal what is causing which Jaddan to be superior or inferior...just simply who will need to do what. Though like the other few people who answered, I'm coding-inept, and I have no idea about resources needed or coding nightmares encountered for doing something as simple as a check like this. _________________ Help!
