This module works great for us on Tynastera!  Prior we were using a much more labor intensive module - was a real pain. This automates the process and is the players seem to love it. The ability to validate prevents players from using it as a means to complaint, spam, etc.

Thank you Art!

Nice idea!  I'd love to see an editor made for this.
1) Setting to change the sentence at the top of love mail page. (If you love Tarkenna send us a love note here--->submit)
2) Settings so that all players can send love mail or just staff only (grotto access). (staff only would allow all players to view but only staff to submit)
3) Yes or No Setting to send out an admin specified yom to approved and rejected messages.
4) Setting option to send a gift with approved message. ___ gems, ___ gold, ___ donation points
5) Setting option to send player to the shades, lower his spirits, send to jail, etc with rejected message.
6) Yes or No Setting to show players avatars beside their name (tiny).
7) Yes or No Setting for news item  "Player'sName loves Tarkenna"  when approved.
8] Setting to show  Love Mail notification under the chat line in the grotto, to show it in the link "Approve Love Mail (3)" or both.

1) This has been at the top of my list for new features since I released 1.1, but didn't seem enough by itself. Also, there is text there that can be translated if you wish, so this one is unnecessary.
2) I don't really see the point in this.
3) Maybe.
4) If I do 3, I suppose this could be added.
5) I can see the lowering of spirits, but killing or jailing them just because you didn't like their message?
6) I like this idea, though it may not be practical on most sites.
7) Good thinking.
8) Originally I had written it to show the number in the nav. I like this idea.

I'll definitely put 1, 7, and 8 in the next release, maybe 6. The rest are still possibilities.
Thanks for all the suggestions!

3) Yes or No Setting to send out an admin specified yom to approved and rejected messages.

I would want this because I want to have a "Get to know the Staff" module.  Players could submit possible questions via Petition, I pick one and set it as the question for the staff for that week. The staff submit their answers for the players to view. It archives all the answers so one can easily get to know the staff. I would also like to ask players questions and they could answer it through this module for all to see. So thats like 3 of the same module, lovemail, staffquestions, playerquestions.. I would be translating text a lot.. I hate that thing.. it would be much more easier to just be able to change topic through an editor. This is the reason behind me wanted 1) and 2).

Automated yom to the player when message is approved, "Thanks for sending the love. We at Tarkenna, really appreciate our players! Please accept these gems as our token of appreciate" or "Your love note was rejected on the grounds that it sucketh. If you want to post complaints do it in petitions or cry about it in the shades" 0_0

I still recommend the questions module be written from scratch, or using some of this code. Even most of it. But it definitely should be specialized. Lots of modifications.
