Custom shouts

Written by: Administrator Tisiphone

Addressed to: Everyone


Custom shouts for endgames are here! The system is fairly straight
forward, so I'll get right into it.

Syntax: CSHOUTS

CSHOUTS SET <text>
- This lets you set your custom shout as you would like. You must
use the $(name$) token for your name, and it cannot be over 120
characters in length.

CSHOUTS SHOW
- This lets you view your current custom shout, and its approval
status.

CSHOUTS SUBMIT
- This submits your shout for Divine approval. We will either approve
it, or reject it along with a reason why.

CSHOUTS REMOVE
- This removes your custom shout. Use this to revert back to the
default, or to unsubmit your shout. It will clear your shout text,
so if you want to unsubmit and resubmit (for say, a typo), make sure
you copy your shout somewhere.


Things to note:
-------------------------
- Keep in mind that this is a shout, and you are mortal. While I
imagine we might allow some poetic license in your shout, we don't
want to see things like heads exploding, or anything similar.

- The $(name$) token is just your name, minus titles. If you want to
add in titles, add them in manually.

- You can only submit a shout if you're level 100 or above.

- If you fall below level 100, you will revert to the default shout.
This won't clear your current shout or approval status however, you
just won't be able to use it.

- If you're level 90 and above, there is a new shout.

- We might add some rules to what you may submit in custom shouts in
the future, much like crafting and such works, but for now we're
leaving it open so we can get an idea of what is generally submitted.


That's it for custom shouts, enjoy!


A few other changes to note
----------------------------------
- Theres's a 50/50 chance you will get a female or male falcon when
you request one now.
- Stupidity will no longer cause TOUCH SHIELD, it will instead cause
RELAX INSOMNIA.
- I've moved the storage location of GNTELLS. This simply means you
might find GNTELLS blank, so there's no need to bug it. It's
intended.
