Talk:List of Player Suggested Features

I'm a little skeptical of a lot of these. I mean, just because a player suggested them at some point doesn't necessarily mean that was why it was implemented. I know that the devs say that they take player suggestions, but I sure would feel a lot better if these were cited as to where the player suggestion to developer implementation link actually existed. --TonyV 13:19, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

The big problem is that except for very recent suggestions, they're all deleted by forum purges. While it's certainly possible that a number of these are incorrect, or that they were features already being worked on when a player suggested them, the only way to know is to ask the devs outright, and they may not even know themselves.

I think the best course of action is to use common sense to what's plausible, perhaps combined with a disclaimer at the top about how accurate the list can possibly be. --Fleeting Whisper 03:08, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Some things in the list weren't specifically suggested by players (eg, Geas of the Kinds Ones), but a suggestion led to it (in the previous example, I believe the suggestion was to have an accolade badge contained within a zone, and every part of Geas is obtained in Croatoa) --Fleeting Whisper 03:10, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Sadly I can't prove it was my suggestion that did it, and my post has long since vanished into the internet ether, but I suggested that the process of generating 2D images that the game uses for character portraits on the contact, info, and costume windows be threaded so that the game would not freeze up when opening the contact window. I PMed a few devs about it, and lo and behold, a few months later it was implemented. Worth a mention? Shigmiya64 15:39, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
