Guild Wars 2

I would like the option to see announcements put into the chat window. Things like…

PlayerName has logged in.
PlayerName has logged out.
PlayerName has completed NameOfAchievement.
PlayerName is now representing GuildName.
PlayerName has reached level (10/20/30/40/50/60/70/80).

Yes. As well as a friend chat type similar to guild chat or party chat. Some older games had this and it was very nice to be able to address all of your friends (for things like LFG and even just socializing).

+1. This is part of the reason Social Networking has taken off. Getting updates on people’s whereabouts and doings can be very fun and encouraging. I also would like to see when someone joins my guild (Announce it to everyone in guild chat). These little updates make the game feel more social. Sometimes I will pull up my friends list and say “Oh crap, i had no idea that many friends were online now!” because I get no indication of it.

I agree. I was actually about to find the suggestion forum and post this and here it is!
