Small Things
I would hate increased combat time in PvE, a skelk (who disappears and appears next to you most of the time) as an extreme example snags you as you’re running past places you’ve been before or you are trying to get to a dynamic event. Or how about when you a running away from a bunch of Risen, it may be the case that by the time you recover from combat time, their snare is ready for use again. Combat time, slows your character movement speed and having this aspect increased would be annoying for most people rather than a convenience.
I’m guessing you are frustrated by people disappearing off when you are trying to kill them in PvP/WvW, so perhaps they can increase it in those. However, if you fail to snag them because they have evasive skills or speed. Then perhaps you should bring a snare or a speed boost yourself to catch them and keep them in combat. I don’t see a problem with this.
Alt+F4 is not equivalent to logging off. Although it seems so, what if their client crashes but cannot close the program because of a message they cannot see. Alt+F4 is out of game control so Anet shouldn’t prevent players from using it.
More crafting collection space? I’m glad that they didn’t force us to use bank space. I’m also glad that I can ‘Deposit All Collectibles’. But I don’t think they should raise the limit because some people can be overhoarding materials which may allow them to play with the Black Lion Trading company prices.

so for you this “You cannot log out while in combat” will not allow you to do this anymore? your client has nothing to do with “combat mode”,

how do u want to catch elementalist (2 skills and you cant even touch him with 1200 skills) or dagger ( 5 sec hide and u dont know where is he, still here or maybe he used WP) ?

What is your suggestion about alt+F4 players? I thought you wanted them to get a message and stop them from closing the program using this shortcut.
There are skills that daze/stun the enemy. Cripple them, they won’t run far in their invisibility. Poison them to keep damage on them whilst they are hiding. Their “combat time” will be renewed by each pulse of poison.
If you fail to hit or damage the enemy, then I’d say they have succeeded in evading/escaping you. Annoying maybe. But even if they WP, then they are away from you. So what does it matter. If they return then adapt/change your skills or ignore them. As I see it, they are successfully distracting you from helping your side of the battle.
In the end, combat time works.. you just need to make it work for you.
