      I have a few very simple/easy ideas and I figured I would put them into one topic. I feel like these are things a lot of you have thought of at one point but because they are so small nothing is committed to memory enough to post in the forum.
  • Have max Inbox cap be infinity (Does it really take that much space?)
  • "Sent" section in the Inbox.
  • Keep "Info" icon on until it is viewed.
  • With the above done.... stop messaging me when I am awarded items/skills!
  • To the left of the input textbox in chat, have a drop-down with everyone's name. When a name is selected have the private message sent to that person.
  • Protect original usernames. Even if someone changes their name don't allow anyone to change to that. Also I would protect the "last" name someone uses. If I want to change my name I don't want to worry about someone stealing my last name in case the one I change to doesn't fit.
  • Shorten the width (or make it customizable) of the tile that displays the names in the chatroom. I use tiletabs to display 2 chat rooms on my left monitor which I have in a portrait orientation And the name tiles in both chats take up 1/3rd of the width. 
  • *NEW* Have features unlocked as the users' level progresses. I just heard the argument that the game is too complex for new users causing them to leave before understanding it and liking it. Lock things like the world builder, monster farm and a few others. When I say lock I mean make completely inaccessible, not even a grey button that's not click-able. No button at all to prevent crowding and curiosity. 
  • *NEW* In order to close FRP's version of a financial gap and better encourage newer players to keep at it, customize the amount of exp gained by attacking each NPC so that lower levels move up the ranks quicker. As they increase, slowly (but not TOO slowly!) decrease the % increase. It should NOT take someone as long as it took me to reach level 100.
  • *NEW* Start mew users out at level 10 instead of 1. Goes with the idea above.
  • *NEW* I'm tired of spending absurd amounts of pointage on "special" items that are available for a "limited" time only and 1 year later is in the backpack of every user. That's crap, CK. CRAP!

     If I think of anything else (and I am sure that I will) I'll simply update this list. Thank you in advance for your constructive input.

Lots of valid ideas, regarding the original name protection, does that apply only to the name they registered with?

      If it does it was not of my knowledge, though I never really asked. The second part of that idea is obviously not in effect (as evidence of the last name switch-a-roo debacle)

Nah, I mean would that idea be applied to only to registered name. In case he also starts recording the other previous names, I'm mostly okay with it, just hope no one with lots of points begins to acclaim the names as his own. Unless the idea would be applied only to the very last name they had before their current name.

New idea posted.

Aurum KodEXo,
     That's why I say only the "last" name of the individual so people can't do that. An expiration could also be set I suppose. But take this for instance:

OriginalName
NameChange1
NameChange2
NameChange3
NameChange4
CurrentName

The names that would be unavialable would be OriginalName, NameChange4 and CurrentName
