what do you want to see in the following year in 2012?

1. More storage, like Mia said. I'm having to trash clothing I like just to make way for new clothes. I wouldn't even mind if there was a bank system where I could store items I'm not using. That would be fantastic.

2. Bookmark totems. I really don't like having to leave an area like Tormenta to get more tonics/ammo, and having to sail or run all the way back. Same with crashing. If we could get a totem quest from Tia Dalma to complete, we could recieve a bookmark totem. Then when we're in an area hard to get to, we can just place the totem there (no other player would see it), so if the player needs ammo or tonics, or gets really unlucky and dies, they can just teleport back. Good for solo looting, bad for other players who try to kill off another one and realise that they have the bookmark totem. The bookmark will reset when the player goes offline for a specific amount of time (so if they crash they have time to get back online before the totem resets). Haven't heard this being suggested before.

3. Better chat filter! A big part of the game for me is chatting, especially since I've joined this site. This has been spoken of time and time again, but I really get angry when I write a message and realise it hasn't gone through when five minutes pass with no answer. It can be pretty bad for the person on the other end too, at least for me, because they might feel like they're being ignored. Believe me, that's happened too many times. Perhaps a message telling you your message didn't go through, or filter the parts of the message that it doesn't like and let it through. I used to play another game where the message always went through, whether it was stars or filtered words. At least I can be assured that it went through.

I expect I could think of more updates I'd like to see, but I'm very happy with the game as it is at the moment. I don't really mind bugs, as most have a way around them anyway. When in doubt, relog!

Amen! I like those last two ideas. I have experienced the same thing with chatting. Seems to happen more often lately. Not sure if it's tied in to these special events. Have a strong hunch though, the problem will happen whenever someone in your chat is in a very busy situation. Server loses track or the amount of time it takes to relay the message exceeds their timeout. Thus never informing both conversation partners that the message failed to deliver.

Still, apart from the totem. The idea I forwarded to POTCO as described in my previous post would double our inventory and it would simplify our chat box naturally. Like I said, it has much potential, and it is something they can do fairly easily.
