So I was looking at one of Rothgar's blog entrys just recently and it this part really caught my eye:

I haven't had any huge tasks related to the expansion since my main focus had been the guild halls for past several months. However, I have been busy working on two other features that you should see in the next month or two. Unfortunately neither of them have been announced yet, so there isn't much I can say about them. One of the features is a new UI element that will give you insight into information that previously has remained somewhat of a mystery. I think everyone will really like this feature and I'm looking forward to it going live myself.

Looking at the bold, what do you guys think this mystery insight might be?

Pet stuff?

No idea. It is from the 6th though... so maybe

Well he says "New" so there goes my guess. Was gonna say maybe a way to preview house items. You can preview statues but you can't preview a painting or table/chairs, etc.

It was from Nov 6 so I don't think it's the pet. I'm not sure, but he said we should see in "next month or two"

Well, the pet stuff wasn't a mystery... just annoying to view manually. And I haven't seen anything you cannot preview in the dress-up window but actually use in a house; so I don't know what Dolby is talking about. Maybe I don't decorate enough.

If it's a mystery, I'd assume it's perhaps something numerical that perhaps has only a vague feeling now. Like numerical experience for instance. But that seems too simple for that type of fanfare and secrecy... and number of months to come out.

I'm thinking that it's something that will help out the modders. It is in fact a "UI element". But we'll see. I'm pretty hyped because whenever something new is added to the UI I get excited.

I'm thinking its the hate data/meter thing. Thats about the only thing that remains a mystery.

EQAditu · #8 11-16-2008, 04:14 AM

Hmm, that is a pretty big mystery, I admit. If it were true, how would it be a UI element? A meter which is your relative hate to the target verses the top person on the list?

I think Landiin got it right:
