Name
inform - Toggle the inform channel on and off.
Syntax
inform
inform [all/none/on/off]
inform <type> [on/off] [<type> [on/off]] ...
Description
With this command you set which special messages you are informed of. If you specify no arguments it will tell you what you are currently being informed of and whether inform is on or off.
The inform messages can be suppressed or unsuppressed with "inform off" and "inform on". Suppressing the inform messages does not change which types of messages you will be informed of, it just stops you being told about them until you turn them on again.
The all keyword makes you be informed of all possible event types. You can specifically turn on and off informing of certain types of events. If you do not specify whether it should be on or off it toggles the status of the event.
The type of inform events are as follows:
achievement: shown when players attain achievements of moderate level or higher
birthday: shown when a player logs in on their birthday
blog: shown when a new entry is made to the creators' blog
council: will display council events
cpu: shows you information on how well A'tuin is doing
event: shown when a new player-run event is added or is soon to start
friend: will display people on your friends list in a special colour
guild-logon: shows you when members of your guild log in or out
group-request: shows you when someone makes a grouping request
logon: will show which players are logging in and which are logging out
new-player: will show you who logs in for the first time
roleplaying: shows when someone starts or stops roleplaying actively
Example
> inform logon on
You will now be informed of logon events.
