Notice Boards

While visiting Otterlane in Groddle Meadows, I discovered a nifty Community Machines building. Inside that building, if you've never been there yourself, is a place to lay out different engineering machines, and using the machines there gives a +5% bonus, according to a sign on the wall. Also on the wall is a notice board upon which various hand-written notes can be placed. While I think that a notice board is a clever idea, I'm not sure that the Community Machines building is one of the more high-traffic areas nowadays, so nobody's really been posting or reading notes.

I think it would be marvelous to have those boards posted in other places. A good place to implement them would likely be the subway because I'm pretty sure they get a lot of foot traffic. I think I'd like to have one in my house (or maybe a fridge upon which I could stick notes ;D), but they could also make a neat little community board for the various housing districts. What do you think about notice boards, fellow Glitches?

  • +1 , especially if you are looking to swap houses with someone; or looking to buy a trophy piece; or just posting a 'Wanted' poster to stalk devs.

  • I too would like them at Subways (we need more down there) or just the streets outside. The ones in neighbourhoods would be very nice since it is hard to communicate with neighbours.

    Maybe they should have a little alert, like the rock or chat, when you have an unread message.

  • I'm not sure how long the notes last or if they can be taken down. I found a note about spinach in the floor, and I posted it up. The next (real-life) day I checked in the CMB, it had vanished. I should have checked to see if I could take it down again.

  • +1.  I would LOVE to have a notice board in the subway stations and in the different housing blocks.

    Buskers would be great! Imagine if you could put your hat down to collect currants for playing a music block in the subway. Or if you could automate a character just to sit there and busk for an hour while you went off to eat lunch or whatever.

  • You would need a busking permit, naturally.
