As I know you are always looking for more work to do (), it would be great if we could add people in other galaxies to our friends lists. That way we would know when our friends are online with alts without having to send tells to find out.
He said you can add them to your friends list.
I hate to do this, but a good tip for the keepers of the forum...
Many people who read the forums like to use the Forum's Advanced Search function to find messages, and it would be helpful if they were able to find messages newer than 1/28/04. It is currently not working properly.
Also, a "for reals" tip:
Always use your Waypoint Monitor in place of the Onscreen Waypoint Arrows. Just go to your Options screen (CTRL-O) and select Interface and then check the Use Waypoint Monitor and uncheck the Show Arrrows to Waypoints Onscreen.
This way you get a little indicator showing how far away your active waypoints are. A must for anyone in a hunting group.
Also, never wear armor if you are not getting hit. There is no reason to have armor on unless you are under attack and taking damage. Otherwise it just hinders your healing ability and makes everything cost more.

Don't be such a jerk. It's a very useful feature.
Sure it is a useful feature. There are millions of useful features that they could spend valuable dev time implementing. My point was that the value of a feature goes down when basic systems of the game aren't functioning... What value is it to buy a car with a seat warmer if the engine doesn't work?
Being a good manager, or organization requires a keen sense of prioritization. It is obvious that is one of the many problems here....

With all the bugs and problems with this game, you spend time implementing this??? Well I guess it is nice when the bazaar and vendors are down you can quickly find out if they are down on just your server or every server.....
They didn't just implement it... He just told you how to do something that has always been in the game.
Besides... there are different development teams and they don't all work on the same problems. It's all being worked on. How about you acknowledge the mulitude of bugs that have been fixed? Every publish makes the game that much better, but it's never good enough for some people. Quit your whining. Ingrate.
