How about a Titles/Suffixes Acct / Character age/life credit

    I have a suggestion for the Staff , Programmers & Dev's, How about using the Titles/Suffixes to give credit for age of Account / Character. During this Anniversary year it would be great for us all to have it show up above our Characters heads. Example: a current Suffixes choice is "of Veeshan" for the server I started on, it displays above my toon in game. Maybe a pick of two, one for Account age and the other for the Character / Toon age, example: "of Veeshan since March 24, 1999". The program would use the date in the system, to keep all honest. I have a character that is only leveled up to 56, but she was born March 24, 1999. So in game above her head would be, Kateyes Lifesaver, of Veeshan since March 24, 1999.

    Come on give it a go! The data for this is already there, you get it by typing "played", and in using the "Titles/Suffixes". Just need some magic fingers work in the program. I know many a player that would love to show their age off!!! I know many an old toon that would get further life, at showing their age in game!
    -- Kateyes Lifesaver, Cleric of Luclin, formally of Veeshan. Birth: 24 Mar 1999.

    Bad form to post in multiple places. Not a terrible idea though.

    Because the system is wrong and inaccurate on the date info.This is just a recent thread but players have noted the discrepancy for years.

    Nobody needs a lagpile with 200 dates, 200 names, 200 guilds, and text overlapping all over the place.

    I like the idea, but the amount of floating text is untenable.

    You could say "people have the option to turn it off", but then they wouldn't see it anyways.

    Already said it in the other post you made about this but what about those Old School playas that took 15 years off?

    As I have said before, base it on hours played :)

    Screw those who took a lengthy hiatus and double down on the no life crowd with time/skin in the game.

    So this rewards those who sit in the lobby for days without leaving it? I have seen some on them log back on seconds after a patch and still sit there and never leave
