[[Message Books]] is a [[housing]] feature that allows visitors to leave messages for estate owners, as well as "like" estates to show their appreciation for the décor.<br />
<br />
==Setting a Message Book==<br />

A [[Message Book Stand]] can be placed indoors in a free company estate, private estate, or an apartment. For outdoor use on estates, you must use the [[Dodo Message Book Stand]]. Please note you may only set one of each at any given time.<br />
* Message books cannot be set in the company workshop.<br />
<br />
While the message book is primarily for visitors to leave messages, the estate owner can also set a greeting message for visitors.<br />
<br />
Moreover, notifications will be sent to the owner each time a message is written in the message book.<br />
* Notifications will be enabled by default, but can be disabled from the Character Configuration menu's Log Window Settings by selecting a log under Log Filters, choosing the Announcements tab, and unchecking the Message Book Alert box.<br />
<br />
==Message Privacy Settings==<br />

Entries left in the message book are set to public by default, allowing anyone to view them. However, they can be set to private at the owner's discretion.<br />
<br />
==Writing in the Message Book==<br />
Players may leave one message in an estate's book per day per character.<br />
* Permission to leave messages will reset every day at 15:00 (GMT)<br />
<br />
Messages can also be deleted by the player who penned them, as well as by the estate owner and those with authorization.<br />
<br />
==Liking a Message Book==<br />
Before leaving an estate, visitors can show their love of the house and its décor by leaving a "like" in the message book.<br />
<br />
Characters are granted ten likes to distribute upon first viewing a message book, and accumulate an additional five likes per day at 15:00 (GMT) up to a maximum of fifty.<br />
You cannot "like" your own estate.<br />
<br />
