Chain messages

[LetTheBodyFall]

The paper airplanes are overrun with chain messages, most of which aren't even related to giving kind words. It's annoying and I feel it's turning the platform into one big mess of spam mail.

Yeah, I agree with you. Its so anonnying opening the airplanes to cheer up and read "uwu chain #25"

[Habi]

I even saw one in the requests.

I keep seeing this favorite game and food chain mail and I was like "...how is this even related."

I think this is something the devs need to address, maybe in a future patch before it gets out of hand.

Ignoring them for now seems like the best bet to do. There isn't much to do against them, in my opinion.

About the favorite games/food/whatever mails that pops for time to time, I think it's just to keep positive vibes in the requests/paperplanes.
Sometimes people don't have any particular problems or don't actually know how to put words on their problems but still want a human contact in form of a letter, just the reward of seeing the deer delivering messages. Just because you don't find it interesting doesn't mean it's not important for someone. At least that's easy to answer ahah

About the "Hug chain", it's something else because it doesn't wait any answer.. In the beginning it was made so that people know they're not alone. When you open one paperplane for the first time and see "hug" you kinda smile thinking about how this game is friendly, but like every chains, the "joy" it can gives fade away pretty quickly.

I think those hug chains would need to stop but I can't really see how the devs can make the difference between a "real" paperplane and a hug chain.

The "what's your favorite whatever" question isn't bothering to me as I can notice how much people feel lonely out there and having an answer to a message like this one may make you feel like someone is there, and a lot of people also like to answer these questions as they can share something they like and that makes them happy. I think

One of the funny things about chains is that players see every airplane. So if you see "Hug chain #4" and decide to write "Hug chain #5", well 10 people probably already did that. So now there are 10 "Hugh chain #5" messages that will inspire 30 "Hug chain #6" messages.

I love the sentiment of them. But because of this confusing branching behavior, we have taken steps to reduce them. We will be on the lookout for opportunities to provide players some, more constructive, way to indulge in chains.

To ban or restrict people in writing specific themes will end up in just dictating rules and those who bought the game to express themselves would be frustrated. Hug chains may not be the most thoughtful of messages but you don't have to open every single paper air plane all the time.
make them special, open them up when you feel like it or just ask a question in your head and that open airplane to receive an answer. That's a cool why to treat them. And the best way to address this (hug chains I mean) - to ingnore them. And don't answer like this. it will come to an end eventually.

I also see nothing wrong with asking positive questions about fav 'thing' like food or movie. That's cool actually! No everyone want to fill themselves with everyday dramas and dealing with constant struggle (and if you are - that's fine too! To each their own!). That's the beauty of this 'game' - you vcan choose whatever you want to write and nobody should be forced to a specific blueprint. It's cool ot jhelp and answer hard and tough questions, but not everyone can and want to do that only, and we all need some light hearted topics to talk to about.

Keep the amazing work, devs! Love you much~

Yeah, I reevaluated my stance on it and do think that it's pretty nice for other people. I guess I just have a different opinion about it haha
