displaying a status text above avatars

[Crummypaladin]

I've seen a lot of ppl run around advertising.

"Looking for guild to join"
"(B) Mega arms"
"Anyone for director runs?"

Why not let ppl buy a billboard to advertise on?

Something that would display in a way similar to guild names (above their head?), but that users can edit. They could use to show"no invites plz" or perhaps "solo runs" to avoid frustrations as well.

It could reduce unwanted chat as well let avatars carry a catch phrase. Of course it would need to be filtered to maintain friendly play.

Downfall would be increased screen clutter. Maybe not the best for smaller screens.

Whadayathink?

If in diff .color or on a lil box you can also have the option to take it out and i will be fine with that (option to not see 'billborads')

This could really cloud the screen and create lag.

Wonderful idea.

There's no end to what uses people could come up for some hovering text above their heads. It'd be like a tiny sl status.

This could really cloud the screen and create lag.

Hence the option to turn them off, too.
