Disambiguation

Crafting gems and mouldings should id to the full gem type as well as the root. The following should all work:

gem of minor blades aggression
minor blades aggression
minor blades
blades
gem
minor blades aggression moulding
blades moulding
moulding


This also is a problem with 1-handed and 2-handed mouldings. i.e. 1-handed silver axe moulding and 2-handed silver axe moulding both id to silver axe moulding, but no way to differentiate between the 1h and 2h kind.

Auction and Auction House

A recent exchange:

[Auction] Someone (guild) : For sale - Legendary 1-handed iron axe (gemchanted
                        with good minor lion).
[Auction] Someone2 (guild) : why can't you auction it?
[Auction] Someone (guild) : Robert says he doesn't think anyone would want to
                        buy it, and the auction house just plain old won't
                        let me.
[Auction] Someone3 (guild) : pretty funny imho


Mining

  • Smelting
    • insert all ore [This would attempt to insert all ore from a player's inventory.]

Smithing

  • Forge
    • (minor suggestion) insert 4 bar [This would attempt to insert 4 bars from a player's inventory.]
If you are use a client with an amount paser you can use that parse IE: in portal ;4 insert ore works

Farming

The ability to combine bags/barrels/etc of the the same type when they are mostly used, preferably in some sort of automatic fashion('combine all'). Help to keep farmer inventories slightly less fugly and prevent partially used item buildup when you keep buying more(or at least make it easier to prevent this instead of counting and dropping every time you buy more).

When you use the last of a farming item and it's the last of its kind, have it display a special discard message.

You heft the bag of fertilizer onto your shoulder and try to pour some
fertilizer onto the ground.
You use up the last of the fertilizer.
You discard your last Smurfy fertilizer.


  • Make bags of fertilizer not identify to 'bag' (reason: it really farks with other mud bags, 'put all in bag')
  • Typo: All plants: lack a space before "This plant is unclaimed." example -> "apple!This plant is unclaimed."
  • There are 'bugs' in the farm rooms but i cant look at them.
    • look at bugs -> That is not here or it is uninteresting. (bugs?)
    • look at insects -> This plot of farm has many bugs.
    • Please make the 'bugs' id to 'bugs' (they can also id to insects, but should be consistent)

Cooking

After your finishing cooking it would be nice if you got a message saying if you got cxp. More stats. We have food eatten and cooked. How about How many are Wow!, Move salty then ... Etc.

Enchanting

  • Gems (at least the filled ones?) should include the 'gemchant' syntax. Something along the lines of:
    • To gemchant a weapon or armour, use: gemchant <gem> into <object>

and Gems should accept more than just 'gem' as the 1st parameter... especially if you have more than one gem of different types in your inventory.

Chatlines

Seperate chatlines for professions, or at least allied professions(food, metal, gems). Avoid the general ruckus that occurs whenever anybody mentions farming on the main craft line.


Cloaks/Cloth Stuff

I threw this idea out on the craft line (I think on 3s) a few days ago. Figured I'd put it here too for persistence.

In order to have people craft cloth items (for cloaks and guilds which are armor restricted) combine blacksmithing and enchanting (again!). Have blacksmith able to make "Bronze Link Cloak" which is too heavy to wear. Then have enchanters/wranglers make a gem that "transmutes" it to "Bronzethread Cloak" when gemchanted. The resulting cloak would have a weight and protection commensurate with the gem and metal cloak that went into making it.


cBay

Charging to list an item, and adding a per 24 hour relisting/maintenence charge would encourage players not to price things sky high. Currently, there's nothing keeping a player without any interest in frags to list something way higher than the market wants. If someone doesn't buy it, oh well, no skin off their back, it'll sit there until someone does... Some mechanic to encourage sellers to price competitively would help greatly.

This was addressed (hopefully) by having items expire within 14 days. Thus players must continually reclaim/relist an item in order to keep it up for sale. Hopefully the slight annoyance will be enough to make people start pricing competitively. If someone can then move this idea to an "addressed ideas" page, or format it in some way such that it's noted as a "solved issue" that would be appreciated.
