However, this system could be implemented in another way and be very useful on servers; you could send a carrier pigeon (or whatever bird you're using) in order to send a private message to another player on a server (which would pop into their inventory within about two minutes) and get rid of the slash command for private messages.

The message you sent would appear as follows in the player's inventory upon recieving:

Private message

Subject

To craft a message, you would use two pieces of paper, a feather, and an ink sac. This could then be attached to a tamed bird and sent off. The amount of text you could write would be the same as in one page of a book.

If the inventory of the player recieving the message was completely full, a message line would appear in their chat saying "[Player] sent you a message. Type /read to get it." If there was still space in the player's inventory, the message would appear there, and a message in chat would say "[Player] sent you a message." After reading, you could either keep the message in your chest or inventory (to save it), or discard it by throwing it onto the ground.

Glflegolas (admin) Send a Messenger 17:12, March 16, 2015 (UTC) This....... (no offense) is not the best idea i have heard it would be a multiplayer only feature plus the hell are they too OP for? Also if you want to send a private message then just type it in the chat box if you get rid of that i wouldnt play multiplayer anymore on this mod
