I know it's been brought up before, but do you guys think you can post changes to items under the "Object Changes' section of bbs? They appear under the news but it would be nice if they appeared on bbs as well so that newcomers to bbs dont see last post was during summer of last year :P

Thanks as always.

With all of the eq changing that goes on and is suggested, I think that the object changes forum should be reopened for players too.

They need a SKILLS thread as well. As far as reporting how a skill could be abused, broken, etc. I'd assume it would include spells.

eq stats change too often period. the frequency of change is ridiculous.

areas at one point was too resistant to change, now they are far too plyable to specific vocal and whiny players.

Actually, this was talked about and I thought it was going to happen, but something else must have come up and it hasn't gotten done yet.
What I suggested then on how the object changes forum would be run is:
Players would not be allowed to start new threads, but rather any time an object is changed the person doing the changes will start a new thread, hopefully with the date the item was changed in the topic.
After that, the players will be able to post in the thread about the changes to that object if they choose. Any posts off topic about that item would be removed.
If players want to see an item changed, they can mmail areas just like they currently can. From there, if an areas member is unsure if the item really needs changed, they may post in the forum with a topic format of something like "Suggested Change to: blahblah." so you guys know its a suggestion and not something that was actually changed. Also, this way other players don't know who suggested the change and that person doesn't get flamed in the thread or otherwise.

Of course, this is just my suggestion on how it should be run and organized and I suspect other areas members will likely have different visions on how to run it. ;)

Or we could just remove the forum all together and you guys can read the news in game or follow the news link on the front page. I believe it still gets updated when the in game news does, could be wrong however.

No removing forums please. Opening the BBS and seeing a new post is one of the few joys I have while at work.

Thanks :)

Oh, I meant just the Object Changes forum since in its current state it is never used.
I'd personally rather see it turned into a useful forum of some sort rather then see it removed.

That's pretty much what I was saying Marth, but somebody was walking over towards my desk so I had to hit submit and minimize :)

I'd love to see the forum used and have a place to provide feedback on object changes.

Re-open the object changes forum please. Its obvious that it would be used more than some of the other forums and help clean up gameplay disc for things that have to do with... gameplay, not eq stats.
