Please go back to what it was. Just add the ability to remove rank names but still keep clan affiliation to what it was. Before certain whois's were too long. Now I feel they are awkward. Plus having legend at the end...

Just make whois how it was, imo. I can live with how who list is.

It seems a couple people are having quite the adverse reaction to these changes and they are simply aesthetic. Let them sink in for a day or so and see if it really bothers or freaks you out.

If you are having issues with the colors, type 'color normal'.

Please allow the colors on the who list to be available under color normal. I don't want blue shit all over my score, but I enjoy the new who list.

Seconded.



Also, instead of putting "- Legend #." at the end of the whois, maybe just put "so-and-so is a legendary blah blah blah" without listing the Legend number.

Obould Many-Arrows is a level 50 Dreadguards Councilman - Legend 5.
->
Obould Many-Arrows is a legendary level 50 Dreadguards Councilman.


Finally, make the legend part visible to people who are incognito.

Raiden the clown-frog is a blademaster.
->
Raiden the clown-frog is a legendary blademaster.

I don't mind the colors because I can toggle them off but I dislike the new format of the list, the list should remain as it was with the exception of showing double clans with remorts or another way to clean that up is to abbreviate clan names. Instead of [Ghob'lhin] use [Ghob].

Go back to how legends were displayed, this new version is just a wot rippoff.

You wanna be really creative then create a menu that allows players to personalize their who list rather than forcing these changes on everyone.

What formatting is throwing you off? The list is basically the same except for the legends number, and some of the stats were removed.

Please include specific dislikes if you want something done!

And to anyone complaining of missing clan names in who list this is just a symptom of another part of the game being worked on, until that is finished we can't display it properly.


Also take into consideration that it wasn't too long ago that the who list was just a list of people with nothing else and it was changed and we all survived! So give it a chance.

I liked how stats were in the old who list, it included players high for the day and max high ever. I also dislike the *legend's rank line.

The max players was removed just for spam, but can easily be put back in.

I don't really like the key either but some people wanted it.

yall are the funniest people. arguing over a who list, who gives a flying crap. its a who list. if you didnt spam who so much it wouldnt matter. big deal if it says legends or legends rank or if its not the way you like it. i could care less if it was all in neon pink like a chicken wang. sometimes the idea of it is not how it tastes but how it feels. a dik dik ran through the forest and a young hunter grabbed his two rivers bow and busted that thing in the balls and it didnt died. turns out the dik dik came back the next day and the boy shot him in the face with a poison arrow and it magically poofed like a mushroom. i remember this one time when i was playing and i opened creekdoor and walked in and boom, i was dead. i fell off a cliff and was like wow, i just lost all my eq. i was so pissed i complained to the imms and they returned my eq because i was such a baby. i felt good about myself because i had done what any other loyal soldier would do. i went back to that door and told my friend there was treasure on the other side. he walked in a boom, dead. i roflcopter for like forever and he was made at me and then samesided me and i cried and it ruined my day. i mean sometimes the who list has gotta change. change is what america wants now days i think. i mean last time i heard the word change, i got a few pennies out of my pocket. idk what yall are talking about now.

Please post here whether or not you believe an 'oldwho' or 'oldwhois' commands are necessary.

I think anything you are missing from the old who can be regained by using the "who legend" and "who key" options...

So no.

I don't see how having the option can be anything but good.

Yes.
