Can't say i've seen more than one so they aren't intrusive. Leave them as they are. As a wide traveler i'm likely nowhere near when they occur, so only system wide would not be much use.
I like this feature
after thought
people who say these are intrusive should be moaning about the general server messages instead/as well. now if they could be limited to newly generated chars instead...

Sirius Wide for interaction. Weeelp
Agreed. On the other hand, there's something like a News Service, BUT I do not believe we really want to spam players with lots of text.
It is bothersome for people playing 800x600 in window.
I think we should ask Alley to include option to turn off reminders about Disco being an RP server and the other one with 2 hour death - being automatically turned on after next server update.
what would be the purpose of that?
Joining the fight?
As attacker you still need to post in POB attack declaration thread after you made a inrp communication to ones you want to attack,the fight will be over by then
As defender you already were given 24-48h notice to prepare yourself
People want to believe that God has a plan for them.
They don't wanna believe that anyone else does..

You can post an attack thread and assault a station within moments if you choose, you wouldn't necessarily have 24 hours of notice.
Would it be possible to make it so the player can set it to system or universe wide the same way the player can set death messages to all or just the system they are in?
I see this as more of a gank beacon. I am pretty sure I would dread seeing my base name come up like that. If an attack is underway this is more likely going to call more people to the attacking side ("cos sploshuns"), not make things more balanced. Not to mention during a siege once you blow up you are then resigned to lurking the forum POB status page and crying into your keyboard for the next 2 hours (and probably some hours afterwards) as you watch your POB depixelate into oblivion.
On the upside, more tears. It's a shame that this is really how this community operates, with none being happy without the cries of anguish of other players.
