QOL /show in different chat menus

[Jammer254]

Lets say you want to show your guild, friend, or party some new item you just bought or something and want to have feedback on how good the item is, or what it is missing for example. Instead of them having to visit you or sending a screenshot why can't you just use /show? My suggestion is for adding new /show options for messaging, guild chat, and party chat. You can either do this through the current chat channel you are in (such as party, or guild channel) then using /show. Or adding new commands such as /wshow, /pshow, or /gshow

sure why not

sure why not

because it’s terrible in terms of server performance. sure, sending all that info to the lobby you’re in isn’t that bad, but imagine a guild with 20 members online. That’s potentially sending all that data to 20 different lobbies, some in different game modes, and just overall being problematic for the servers.

Sure, it’s a great idea in theory, but in practice it would be terrible because of this problem

you can send regular guild messages across servers, which proves doing this doesn't cost many server resources.

yes, but sb items send a LOT more data, and would cause a ton more problems

maybe resolving the item detail on a server and converting it to a regular message before broadcasting to other servers might help? actually the messages are JSON data so it doesn't lag servers that much
