Suggestion for <in-game/forum/teamspeak etc.> In game.

In detail, explain your suggestion: Essentially, when someone /pms you in prison, an automated message would occur which would indicate to the person sending the message that they are in prison. E.G Thank you for calling the Evocity Correctional Facility, inmate <name> has 8 days left until he is released. (or something similar.)

How should the developers add this? (BE DETAILED WITH EVERYTHING!) Explains itself ^

Why should this be implemented? Would A) Help with Prison escape RP. The person they're trying to bust out would not normally be able to respond, and so they could be in prison for 1 minute or 15. One may argue this is failRP, but the limitation of the gamemode could counter that, as other than metagaming, there's no viable way to know how long someone would be in prison for. (In real life this information would likely either be public, or at least known to the close friends and associates of the incarnated person.
and B) allow those PMing to know that the person is in prison, and not simply ignoring them. The only real current counter is to speak in OOC, which is of course metagaming.

Is a small addition, but a nice ease of access one, which may improve small RPs such as prison escapes and such.

Maybe we add a payphone prop, and if you're within a certain distance from it, you can activate this feature.

+support, I feel this would add to the roleplay and could limit rules breaking!, However we could allow government to contact them as this would be a good way of dealing with arrests in character.

Just a thought, but perhaps Nexus Desk Sec. could beam into PM's coming from the pay-phones in case something is scheming. That would add another job for the NDS, and would challenge players to not just say "Hey come break me out" and instead be a little more creative.
