[center][b]I am no longer actively updating this list. Anything suggested from October, 2014 and onward could very well be missing.[/b][/center] Due to the amount of repeatedly requested features, I've compiled a list of everything requested so far in this section of the forum that has not already been implemented, as well as Mahz's responses (if any) to these requests. If items on the list have a line giving Mahz's response then he has responded to them somewhere in the Feature Request section; if they lack such a line he has not responded to them here. Hopefully this will lessen clutter in this forum section, spread information to the curious masses, and be of use Mahz as a sort of to-do list. Thanks and credit to Ellri for doing the legwork of making the list format not be a huge mess of hyperlinked text and organizing it by categories, which I'd been procrastinating on doing for a long time. :hehe --- [b]Requests concerning user profile info and customization:[/b] [color=39b54a][Implemented Jan 2015][/color] User post count [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/273/posts/ooc]tracking[/url] Mahz response: Approval included in a general "I agree with everything" [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/273/posts/ooc?page=1#post-1726]statement[/url].
