how about a new config option to display your level, like in the old days. yes i know, "idea that"... but i think it might be worth a little discussion first anyway, if you turn it on it puts your level in your title in brackets at the end, if you leave it off (default setting) then everything works as it is now just an idea, in case the contract pk-ok-not-ok thing goes in and people end up being AA for extended terms (3 RL months etc) an example: Bob the Newbie [|2Some Clan|U6] [43] hmmm, maybe you could add a config option for display level color, so you could make the number (43 in this case) a set color to match your title, but the brackets would be default color |U6

From: Aegir Wednesday, October 02 2002, 02:07PM true, but whats to say people will be uhhh accurate shall we say? also, i was thinking that you could also make it a new option for guildmasters. the clan flag would over-ride the individual, so a guildmaster could turn on SHOW_LEVEL_IN_TITLE flag and everyone in the clan would show theirs. another flag i like, how about letting guildmasters set the clan's title, i.e. |6London Vampire Slayers|U6 and then the title: Bob the Newbie [|6London Vampire Slayers|U6] [38] would show? read next as always, you could turn it off and use it as it is now, so only affects those who want to use it if coding time is the problem, heck i'll code it, Ea! can do a design and email me the needed files to be changed |U6

From: Kaige Wednesday, October 02 2002, 07:39PM Who's to say people wouldn't spoof it with it at the end of your title like that if we were to code in something you can already do? -Kaige |U6

From: Aegir Thursday, October 03 2002, 01:24PM good point, kaige however, you could make it show up in the who list in front of the name if its turned on (like it used to) remember it was taken out to prevent pks from using who as a way of seeing who is in range to attack, but now with pkok, could it not be put back in? |U6
