Idea How To Get Rid of "Spammy" Messages
So some people don't like seeing the spymaster messages in their standard stream, but you'd still like to have the #spymaster there and such.
I think I have a compromise, what if the message started out with @playspymaster?
That way, only other players would see the messages in their stream, and it could be a trending topic and such, but it wouldn't show up to non-players unless they clicked on who they were following.

I’m happy

Inappropriate?Trending topics are from the hashtags #
As for the notification, users can turn that off and are prompted for that immediately upon creating their users and they can modify that at any time through settings (bottom of the page).
As for just filtering the spymaster spam. This would be a twitter issue with our everything is presented to you, not something to deal with how we handle notifications.1 Comment

I understand I can turn it off. I just finished reading:
http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/06/09/...
in particular:
"Plenty of people have told me that they don’t want to see Spymaster messages in their tweet stream, but would rather not unfollow people who they still consider to be friends. If there was just a way to filter out those message — and yes, some third party Twitter apps have a way, but this needs to be built into Twitter eventually — then everyone can continue to go about their business."
And I was trying to come up with a solution. Having the reply to playspymaster would accomplish this. -
Inappropriate?Excellent idea Scott! I had to start an all new Twitter acct for personal purposes due to this and I have my notifications turned off. Even so, followers of my personal twitter do not usually mix well with my spymaster twitter followers. Too difficult to decipher/filter out the spymaster when all i want to do is spar with friends or hear about the news, etc.
I’m thinking this is an excellent solution.
