Guild affiliation in Forum posts

Postby Captncrunch » Mon Oct 28, 2013 11:33 pm

This one is more about the game within the game (so to speak). Reading through forum posts can give a player some idea of what the current politics within the game are (which tend to be interesting). For a newbie, though, it can be hard to follow what is happening, but I think I have a fix.

The idea is a simple one: In the forum posts, instead of just showing just the player name on the left of the post (under their pic), show the same info that currently appears under their "Pirates Glory" picture within their game. Eg: "PlayerName (#IDnumber) [Guild]"

Showing the current guild affiliation makes it easier for newbies to follow what the relationship is like between different guilds, and the ID number can give a rough guide as to how experienced the player is.

Thoughts?

Sounds Good. More information for new players is always better.

I agree with rolando
I'm a canny one
Scourge of the Seven Seas
Sink anyone's galleon
To murder my enemies
Whether he's been stabbed in a back street
Or a vast sea attack by the Black Flag fleet

You mean these forums right? Basically more info than just the avatar, correct?

I think that yes, more than just the avatar as in the avatar, then make it optional if they want to show their guild affiliation

Afk, looking for that palm tree island beach of Legends.

How about only the guildless and pirate ( without nation) members are allowed to always remain anonymous, those in a guild should have to wear their guild id, being famous cannot be all good.
