I idea logged it but I want peoples thoughts on if its a waste of time or a good idea. XXX, New to Pyrathia to be color coded to the nation they enter. The reason I feel this would be good is two fold. One helps mentors who log in after they are around to find them help them also helps mentors from another nation to help them if no one is around from their nation. Two helps to let people know if there is a high concentration of newbies in a given town. This would basically let people know that perhaps it would be kind of lame to mount a city assault at this point in time at least against that city. Final thought Id say a good 90% of all experienced player base use color clients there are a few who dont but it doesnt subtract from them.

Only if it's New to Pyrathia, right?

That was the idea, a colored . wouldnt really show up much would also announce where you are from to the world which would kind of make it worse for lowbies who arent newbies.

I think this is a BAD idea to be generally known.

It gives IC information to Who glances, before the person is even greeted.

MAYBE allow the leaders of their OWN respective Tribunals to see citizens.

I'd rather see something like adding a new skill for Tribunal leaders alone something like a census skill which can be used once a week, which produces a list of all citizens of your country.

Have it's results delivered in a note that the tribunal leader could choose to post on the tribunal note board if they wish.

It's a great idea. And as about IC info given away... lol what? New to Pyrathia is NOT IC info. It's OOC info, which is already being passed to the game in order to help with player courtesy. Giving away the information about where the newbie is from can only benefit someone who is really new to the game. Who would chase down a newbie to his kingdom and for what reason? And how would a real newbie need to hide this piece of information and for what reason?

The IC information is their nationality, which you're proposing displaying on the who list.

How about we meet in the middle, Aelandron?

When a new player creates in Zhenshi, all characters mentor and higher get a tell from the innkeeper telling them exactly who it is. And that isn't with the New to Pyrathia flag. That's just any character.

Let Mentor+ characters in Zhenshi see the New to Pyrathia characters as a different color if they are from Zhenshi.
