Bobbi's Idea-Fest

[spookyiness]

so yeah
i know there's a 'suggestions' thread, but i figured, hey, everyone else just makes their own thread, why can't i? and besides, i wanted a poll cause i'm interested in what YOU think too :>

so even in a 1 hour maintenance, i get bored easily, and i even had my weekly shower... some things have been preying on my mind lately that i think would benefit many people ingame, and i believe they wouldn't take much implimentation either (but what do i know)...

Idea, the first... (and the second i suppose)
The Academy... as someone that run an academy, and doesn't just delete everyone every day, and actually tries to coach the newbies through the game, i think two nice little features would be handy - the first (and easiest), is the 'enroll date' - kinda useless, when they enrolled is all well and good, but isn't actually useful information. what would be nicer is to change that to a 'last signed on' date (and we know this information is available, as friends lists/monarch lists/etc have them).

It would also be nice to have an 'auto-graduate' option in the academy. Now, granted, not everyone wants everyone who graduates to hit the main guild, but there are times when i know for sure i want someone in the main guild, but that i may be offline when it happens, so to say "auto-graduate" would basically pull them into the main guild the second they hit 40, making space for new people if i don't notice - equally, and 'auto-boot' option would be nice too, for those i'm happy to accept guild buffs from, but don't want in the main guild. but being just auto something as standard would stop people staying in academies past lv40, and abusing the warp function by putting warp bots on every map they can find (which is something that peeves me a lot :> )


argh
you know what?
i had like 9 of these in the shower, but once i start typing, do you think i can remember them now? noooooooooo
boo!!

so, i'll finish with (and maybe edit later if my brain wakes up)...


idea.. the third...
outspark should give bobbi a permanent blue kimono & a permanent pink racoon just cause she's so awesome and never EVER sarcastic in anything she says :-D

And never ever ever distracts her guild by logging from character to character making the right-side status window scroll like a chatbox near a spammer... ;)

Doesn't it take 10 seconds each time to switch char...?

I like the 'last logged in' date idea for the academy members. It may help with knowing who to ban, who is really active, and just generally keep an eye on academy members.

ive run a couple of acads what i do is ss the acad list every sunday and delete any who havnt lvled the following saturday rinse and repeat

but yeah being able to see when they last signed in would b soooo much easier so i voted for that :p

that's how i do it
i keep a little .txt file on my desktop and once a week at maintence remove anyone that didn't level, and soemtimes i use it as a guide when making space for new people who ask to join
i'm an OCD nerd who has no problem doing that kind of stuff, but like everyone, i want it to be easier, lols
