Topic :   Free Gates.
10 years ago  August 20, 2014, 03:51:51 PM

  I am posting this here, and not in the suggestion area, due to curiosity. I am trying to see if there are others out there whom agree with me before I post the following on the suggestion boards.

  The free gates are of course the blue gates all over the facets which you simply walk into and go some where else, for free.

  When I first arrived here, at EVO, one of my first posts was about cleaning up the Free Gate lists in order to make them better organized.

  {Disclaimer} Sure this is a minor issue, and yes I have waited until now to bring it up again, due to that fact, and the recent server revert. But it is the small parts that make things whole. So here goes...

  One] I foresee a list that follows by facet, and then custom features are placed where they need be. Either at the top, or bottom, of the list. An example would be:

  * NEW PLAYER GATES  --- placement at the top allows new players to see this first, in this
                                           way they are pointed in the right direction: {Look here first}
  * Trammel Banks         
  * Trammel Dungeons   --- having these categories follow each other provides a player                                                    quicker access to all things trammel.

  If this makes sense to you, please post you agreements; of course you can also disagree, or point out any flaws you see as well.


  Two] For those of us who are getting older, or associate things better with color, is it acceptable for each facet area to be given a colored text. My example would be as follows:

  * Ilshenar Cities
  * Ilshenar Dungeons
  * Ilshenar Shrines
  * Ilshenar Caves

  * Malas Cities/Dungeons
  * Tokuno

   If this makes sense to you, please post you agreements; of course you can also disagree, or point out any flaws you see as well.

Yes this makes perfect sense, but there is no way to rearrange without erasing them and starting over.  Just no real easy way to do it like you suggest
 

  In closing, what I am trying to accomplish here is to get the community involved in by sharing their opinion on the topic. If you the reader thinks any of this will help veteran, and new players alike, well I have a feeling that Dante & crew will listen to the community as a whole. I am only one of many.

  Thanks for reading.

P.S. @ Dante -- I have a few additional ideas to share on this topic, but with you, or staff, only.  8)

I think this is a good idea but i also think there are tons of other correction/improvements that are more important atm.

 @ Red post, in my post.

  I understand. Maybe in the future a new list could be created, from scratch, to replace the old?


  Otherwise thanks for the replies, this post actually worked as intended.   8)
