Guild Wars 2

I saw a post recently about allowing us to see the statistics of our battle in a match and it gave me an idea.

Now we all know (or I assume most of us know) the reason why our names are not displayed above our heads and instead we receive the name “invader” or “defender”. This is cool and all but for some reason I’d like an optional tab letting me know of various kills:

“Soandso has been killed by a well-timed mortar round from BlahBlah”

To allow this however, we would need a different nickname then our character name. I propose an NPC at the entrance to each WvW zone that would allow us to set a callsign for our character. This name couldn’t be the same as our character name (or any character name on our account) and would be subject to standard naming rules. This would be optional and talking to the NPC would allow us to remove it. The name could appear after our player name in quotes or above them, wherever would be appropriate. To our enemies, it would read: <servername> Defender/Invader “Callsign”

Again, this would be 100% optional, just a fun addition to those who want to personalize their WvW experience a bit and perhaps add an element of that dreaded “Soandso” from the Anvil Rock server or something :P
