At one point in college some friends and i made up a system for just explicitly state what sort of response you needed. Ok, "made up a system" is a little over stating it. Basically it was "Hey this is important can I have your undivided attention?" through the lens of stupid nerd jokes. Like, "setPriority(10) i'm locked out of my apartment do you have a spare key?" vs "setPriority(0) i am so mad that fallout3 requires GFWL"

Now i'd probably just say "hey this is important do you have a few minutes?" in normal words.

Thinking about it, I think I have 4 priorities as things stand: 4 - Message in the group chat 3 - Message in the group chat with @ 2 - Direct message 1 - Phone call

[–] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Priority 00 - A regular text message and two phone calls back to back.

[–] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Priority -1 - I'm showing up at your door.

-2 - I'm breaking in with a battering ram

If you used setPriority, does that mean all subsequent messages have the same priority? Or is this a dsl that implicitly takes the message as the second parameter?

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 19 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The priority would stay as set until explicitly changed, or it was set back to the default after a period of inactivity.
