The MOTD feature for realms is pretty cool, but I find that I can't really ever use it. The problem is many of my buildings will sit on more than one realm - either because they are too big for one, or their location just happens to be inbetween two.

I wouldn't want to put an MOTD for these situations since players will surely walk between the realms a lot while exploring the building, which would result in something like what is shown below. I don't know if this bugs other people or not.

What I am Proposing: Tweaking the MOTD script to only display to the user if the MOTD is different than the previous one. That way, if you have multiple realms which require only a single MOTD, setting them as the same will make it to where it is only shown to the player when they first enter the collection of realms.

I noticed that you will only receive public/private realm messages when you switch between them (ie you can walk between consecutive private or public realms without being spammed), so I'm hoping this could be done without much effort.
