And links should be clickable, please! It is useless to post a link when the player either had to scramble for pen and paper or alt-tab like a maniac to capture a URL.

This game has the worst dance moves I have ever seen. I could kick a kitten and see a better dance ensue. Fix, please!

Maybe they do monitor voice chat in DDO. I have !clue, not being interested in using it in the 1st place. But I am sure that someone who cares more could easily find the answer on http://forums.ddo.com/
I RP a char who is a 16 year old girl. She loves fish! Not only do I support the idea of fishing, but she should be able to catch a fish with her bare hands. It should be very difficult, as it is iRL, but it should be possible.

Not only do I want a bigger blue dot, but I want a feature from DDO: the mini-map has a little arrow for each party member and the arrow points to the direction they are relative to you. So when I scan the full map, I already have an idea where to look.

DDO has an awesome LFG feature. You can post what profs you are looking for, player level, dungeon level, and a note with any other details. There is a check box that will hide all LFGs a player is not eligible for. A player can immediately join a party (I never do this) or send a tell to the party leader (I always do this)

I never do the personal storyline alone. I feel that the die, release, repeat method ruins my perception of the story…I died, End of Story.
So I always bring a friend with me. I think it would be awesome that when a cutscene plays and I am in it, you should see my friend(s) lurking in the background. They are there, they are helping me, why not share the limelight a little?

Yes, please! I recruit for a guild and I would never even think of kicking someone. That is neither a part of my job description nor my responsibility, but there are many who abuse the powers they have been given knowingly.

How about fixing the clipping through tables/bars/chests bug? And I really wish I couldn’t clip through another player. I’ve often RPd that a Charr has knocked me over with it’s tail. I think it would be awesome if the tail actually hit me and stopped instead of swishing right through me.

I must confess that as a blonde, I have !clue what some of those are. Curse support? Cursing isn’t allowed. Perhaps a 1 line description is in order?

My idea for a city DE:
I want “Don’t Kick A Kitten Day”. The cities (or countryside, if it is not feasible for combat to occur in DR, for example) could suddenly become infested by bands of feral cats who would attack players on sight, doing minimal to moderate damage. The goal would be to escape the cats without leaving the area. If you survived the DE while killing no (or less than X) kittens, you would get the DE reward.
This idea was brought to you by the Don’t Kick a Kitten Foundation.
I’ve figured out a way to have Titles be a voting reward and help prevent abuse. I’m sure a brunette or redhead could help improve this idea…
When the voting dialog pops up, the Submit button is greyed out. The button is disabled until a) a timer expires and b) all the questions are answered. The purpose of the timer is to help prevent people from just clicking choices and submitting invalid data. The timer should be variable based upon the number of questions/choices and the complexity of the questions. The devs/PM would have to decide what a reasonable completion time would be for each poll.
Once the poll is submitted, a simple algorithm is used to determine if valid data was submitted: if the user selected the 1st, middle or last choice for all the questions (an example of what a lazy person who just wanted a title would do), an ‘invalid data’ flag is set for that submission and the devs can ignore it.
In addition, the player has ‘valid vote’ counter which is incremented by 1 when valid data is submitted and decremented by 1 when invalid data is submitted. If the ‘valid vote’ counter hits a certain negative number, they are awarded the rank ‘Voting Booth Vandal’. That is the only negative rank. When the counter reaches a certain positive number, the 1st rank, ‘Generally Ambivalent’ is awarded and as the counter increments, the player moves towards the next rank.
There should be a Titles tab on the Hero page listing all the titles they are currently eligible for, where they are in regards to earning the next rank for that title and the name of the next rank.

They need to add an afk option that “safes” the toon. Sometimes nature, family members or the UPS person want attention NOW. A player shouldn’t be punished just because real life demands a little attention. And teleporting does punish since it costs and you then have to run back to where you were.
It’s called the ‘Character Selection Screen’. It takes less than 10 seconds to get there.

I think they should just make the AFK kick shorter and not consider me AFK when I am typing. Hello? I am typing. That, by definition, means I am not away from my keyboard and not idle.
I hate the kitten out of that kitten idle message too!

+1 OP. I am for its removal too.
However, I’d be 100% staisfied if loot/karma/XP scaled to a players ACTUAL level. Why on earth would anyone want to battle with a level 20 creature at level 80 only to get shafted on the rewards? It makes no sense.
Why should a level 80 player get a level 80 reward for killing a level 20 critter? I’m a blonde and even I can tell that makes no kitten-licking sense!

Wait! I can use a kitten to teleport? Kitten-a!
A norn could ride a charr… :p
DDO has a network latency indicator that automatically appears when lag hits a certain level. It also disappears when the lag goes away. Hovering over it displays a pop-up with latency info.
The indicator can also be enabled/disabled in Options.
They don’t monitor voice chat in DDO, that I am aware of and there is an option in the Options to enable/disable hearing/using voice chat. Not to hard to implement.
That’s because ‘Search’ appears to be an alien concept on this forum.
And just so the new command doesn’t feel lonely, add a /horton. :p

No! No! No! In DDO, for example, I cannot play with a friend if they are +/- 2 levels of me. Here, I can play with anyone on a map what won’t kill me instantly.

The interweb has a long memory span.
If this gets added, I want my own emote – /punt-gangnam-style
I would like a toggle to display all players in my immediate area, if not for the entire map I am on. This would help me determine if I am going to be the only one present at the current DE.
People in DDO use the in-game voice chat for dungeons, because they can be very complicated in that game. The hardcore players use vent or mumble.
I tried vent here but stopped because I didn’t find it helpful and I had to disable it to RP as it was too distracting.
Precisely. I can’t be expected to remember that a gibberish handle like HawtStripp3rChick, belongs to the nice woman who mailed me food.
I assign a nickname to every person in my Contact List describing their Main, how I met them and any notable characteristics.
Every Update from ArenaNet so far has deleted all of my nicknames. Frequently, if a player swaps to an alt, that destroys my nickname as well.
Then I am forced to act like an idiot and ask everyone who they are and retype my nickname for them.
I can’t copy text from the chat window; I can’t copy text from a mail I receive and I can’t click a URL no matter where it is.
Now, the last one may be to protect people from scammers, but it will only protect the lazy stupid people, not the ambitious stupid people.
I am an adult. If I chose to click on a link without knowing what it is or because I bestowed my trust on someone unworthy of it, I deserve what I get.
Please do not protect idiots. The world iRL is already worse because of this trend.
There is another solution, than a global filter. Create user customizable spam filters. Add any phrases you like, and messages containing them will not reach you. Gold sellers will never know what phrases you’re using, so they won’t create new ones all the time.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t. ArenaNet thinks typing is for kittens!
You do get booted for being AFK. I think the timeout is an hour. And you get booted even if you are not AFK, but are typing and not moving.
I would suggest that while “dead”, waiting for a resurrection, you could exit your body as a small colored flame (orange for warriors, red for elementalists, etc) and fly around the body in a specific radius and watch the fight around you. When / if someone is resurrecting you, the flame will loose player’s control for distance and it will come closer and closer to your body, but still you can move it around on a radius
That is an awsome idea!

The notice can be hard to react to quickly enough. For example, I am typing, the text buffer is 75% full and I am trying to finish my post. I miss the timeout. Now, due to another bug, the guild chat window is empty…
Why kick me to begin with? I am active, I am just not moving.
And please, 4 guilds? 5 would at least make sense, but why not 6 or 7. I have 1 big guild I belong to and 3 little ones that I try to RP with if anyone is online.

Maybe, but you’d have to be a bit brave (or stupid) to click on a raw link like that from someone you don’t know. That’s virus-bait.
And are we now thinking that people who would visit a goldseller to begin with are intelligent?
