Hey all,


How much time have you spent in a cantina asking everyone in a group who the leader is?


Wouldnt it be great if you could know by the leaders group icon (the two little heads by their name) was a different color than white?


Anyone?

I'd love this feature, and the best part is, it ought to be trivially easy to do, since they already display the leader as a different color to group members.

The entertainer board generally isn't very traficked, and people are more likely to speak up if they oppose something than if they support it.


For what it's worth, I think it's an interesting idea. I'll suggest it. However, there may be issues of griefing to be considered in making the group leader apparent to all, and it may not be so easy to implement as it looks on the surface. Not saying it's a bad idea, just saying all that glitters is not gold, and not every idea that looks simple and good really is.

The other thought i had was to have yet another color show when the group is full, so:


Regular members of a group that is not full: white


Regular members of a group that is full: green


Leaders: Pink always

you guys do know if u are in a group, and you are not the leader, you can just hit ctrl 2 and it auto selects the leader, and there is (L) next to the persons name in the group list...So that modification in the game would be pointless...

The suggestion is for people who are not in the group to be able to see the leader, not for the people in the group. Obviously this would be pointless for the people in the group since they already have a different color name. Besides, hitting ctrl-2 doesn't work if you are the leader.
