is this a place I can say a small suggestion? you know how in rumors when you want to tell people you killed that Cyclops, you have to go try to find it in all that "I was attacked by a bunny" stuff? but in ask for directions you can just type in the Cyclops name and come to the top of the list. so just add names as keywords to the I slew ____ stuff

No, it's not the place. But I will respond: you are asking for filter capabilities, correct? Already a suggestion, if not implemented.

Basically, filtering by "conflict" and "fight" are literally the least useful rumor keywords in the game. But yeah, susually you have to make a new topic and a grand total of maybe two people will see it. :V

Luckily one of them is guaranteed to be Toady...

[Random_Dragon]

Hopefully, yes. And...I just checked the functional link to eternal suggestions voting Lehtosor provided on the previous link.

Sweet zombie Jesus, so many suggestions that have already been implemented by now.

Oh, and of course the "can we piss yet" suggestion is there. It was inevitable.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

Wait what? You say that filtering by "conflict" and "fight" is useless? Yeah, but he wants to filter by name, and that is already a thing. *why is this confusing it shouldn't be why is this even a thing*

Nyet. It's because ALL the fight rumors ONLY use the keywords "conflict" and "fight." This includes the "I was attacked by this guy" rumors (which no one has ever needed to spread) in addition to the more useful "I killed this guy" rumors. So no, you can't use names to narrow down your fight rumors to the ones you actually want to spread.

Oh! You mean you want to say "I killed Urist McColossus," but you can't just type in "Urist McColossus" in the filter text box, you have to type "conflict"/"fight" because that's the only filter keywords that are attached to the rumor, but they're also attached to "this bird flew at my head" and "I saw this bandit once"?

Exactly that.

[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

That is just ridiculous. I think I'll create a suggestion topic for that.

[Random_Dragon]

Yesss. At a bare minimum, adding "slew" as a keyword for all conflict rumors where someone gets killed would make things massively more efficient.

The link in the first post doesn't work, 404 Not Found. I wish Toady edited his first post to add the real link.

I don't think there's any point. It hasn't been used in an eternity.

It seems Toady does use it as the top suggested features have been regularly implemented lately (job priorities, standing orders, improved hauling, etc.). I for one still check it from time to time and wait for the amusing moment where "Full graphics support" will inevitably reach #1.

Gelding and book binding are 96/97. Taverns are 56. 69 is hospitals.
