Instead of the current wall of text
" A realm owned by ___ is now disbanded"

Why not just say that all the realms by that user has been disbanded? The current problem right now is that if a person has 20+ realms to his/her name, the system will spam the chat for a long time. Sure we can wait it out, but why make things more difficult to the end user? The goal should always be making things more simple.

I suggest making the bot saying something like this:

"Realms owned by ____ have been disbanded"

Just saying that one time is enough, then everyone knows that specific person realms has been disbanded. There really is no reason wanting to know how many realms disbanded (that's what the rankings are for) The only reason you would want the current system is when your trying to get realms. All of the users realms doesn't disband on the same time, so this suggestion might make vultures mad because you would have to type /realm to make sure that/those realms are going public.

Pros:
Less spam.


Cons:
If your a vulture, you won't like this idea.
Extra Coding.

To me, this is a good thing. This way some players of whom I shall not name may miss notifications that they have the opportunity to vulture a realm.

Sure, it won't necessarily stop vultures, but it could potentially decrease the likelihood of said vultures swooping in.

Quite a fine idea. However, keep in mind that the current system is going to be changed. So perhaps this was planned to be implemented anyway. If not, I would like this temporarily added until the new system, and if relevant, added to the new system as will. Speaking of that system, I can't wait for it.

I like this idea. I personally despise trying to help players or even talk whilst my screen is being spammed with disband notices. It's a nuisance added to the usual spam I get via five different chats, notices, rollbacks, etc. Thanks for suggesting this Bridge.
And yes, dirty vultures! :P
