Look, you can't complain about this after giving us so many scenarios involving N locked chests and M unlabeled keys.

@JourneymanGeek I wonder why I don't get any notifications for this? I usually get something like "Gleb has invited you to join Trash" or something similar.

Journeyman Geek

\o/

chat works in mysterious ways

Petəíŕd the Wizard

I guess just fiddling with requests makes the thing.

hands @Journeyman a cup of jQuery

Journeyman Geek

no thanks, I'm not a dev :D

@JourneymanGeek in ancient India, deva were the divine, the ultimate forces of good, and in ancient Persia, they were the ultimate forces of evil

Journeyman Geek

I always found that amusing

maybe opposite sides in war?

M.A.R.

Too far apart for war

Same origins, but I think the reason for divergence is not fully known

Journeyman Geek

also a matter of how literally you take myth

M.A.R.

It was a mess. Except for half a dozen commonly revered gods (like mitra), like every second farmer worshipped a different god

Journeyman Geek

In some contexts Asuras were not inevitably evil, and devas were a bit.. nasty

M.A.R.

Ahura Mazda (sorta the Persian Zeus) was at times at odds with Mitra and at times her lover

Later on he was always portrayed as divine, not evil

As in, the end of Achaemenids and Sassanids (which were theocratic)

Come to think of it, maybe religion should have evolved like that. "Well my god says heaven is full of ice cream, not that weird milk honey stream or whatever"

. . . Yeah Quran says there are streams of honeyed milk flowing in heaven

Must taste a bit earthy too

@JourneymanGeek Alexander tried to conquer India next, he made it halfway through and half his army wasted away from malaria and dysentery, then someone probably suicided him at the ripe old age of 34.

So yeah, too far apart

Journeyman Geek

@M.A.R. probably sour and curdled.

M.A.R.

@JourneymanGeek then it wouldn't be flowing, more like sliding

Journeyman Geek

slopping

and smelling a bit odd

M.A.R.

Earthy

Maybe the earth in heaven is made of rock candy

All lactose intolerant people go to hell.

@PetəíŕdtheWizard you only get a notification if you have write access to the room that your messages have been moved to

Petəíŕd the Wizard

@Mithical ah, thanks!

So... @Sha do you get notifications for Chimney message chores? You're still a RO there.

Mithical

I think you also won't get a notification if you have an outstanding invitation to that room still pending

Petəíŕd the Wizard

Good.

@PetəíŕdtheWizard what is a message chore? Anyway, I don't clear my invitations so as @Mith said, I don't get notifications when my Smokey feedback is moved there.

@Mithical that makes sense, whoever thought of this is a smart person... (probably @balpha ;))

@M.A.R. you think hell is full with bread?

ah oops lactose, lol. So milk. :D
