A suggestion for the account overview

Post by Trillarel » Sat Sep 22, 2012 7:33 pm

I'd like to have a way to see the following when I log to FK and before I choose the character:

1) how many hours have I logged with each one (the number could be in parentheses after the character name)
2) a way to tell if the character is dead (an asterisk or something after the character name).

What do you think?

Bump. This could be useful especially to people who have lots of alts.

Bump again. In about 70 hrs I'll start another alt, so I'd love such a feature.

Several years ago when the account system first came out, there were discussions about having a log in screen which told you who was online before you logged in. I don't know what became of that suggestion, but it was very minor and not a bad idea, though I don't know how possible it is with hard code. You do actually see a running tally of your logged hours in each individual account when logged in though, as for deaths I usually make a notepad note, especially if I am not playing that character for a long time. You do get to see a log of when you last logged that character in when you choose to play them though.,
Justice is not neccesarily honourable, it is a tolerable business, in essence you tolerate honour until it impedes justice, then you do what is right.

Spelling is not necessarily correct :)

I know, but I want to limit my notes as much as possible.

The possibility to see who's on before logging in is a good idea too!
