Festival Hats are a way of saying your character was "there," though. Although perhaps an account enabler to allow the hats for other characters on your account wear the hats you've earned would be nice though. Or did the update a while back already do that? I forget :P

But I'm certainly in favour of "Gift Purchases" from the online shop. There has been a few times over the last couple of years where I've purchased extra codes as gifts for friends. Having the nice-ness of an email a la "This is a Gift Purchase from User XYZ, enjoy your GWEN code!" would be awesome
I agree with this! I'd love to be able to buy things like preview weekend codes or even entire game codes for friends through the online store. A journalling site I blog on, LiveJournal, let's you do exactly just that -- through their online store, you can buy things like Paid Account time or extra icons or whatever for your friends. I've bought quite a few things for people there ^_^

Unless I'm missing something...How can it support Bots if they can't trade anything? It would be fruitless for them to a trial key only to let the items go to waste when they can't trade the items they find.

For a friend who is currently in Sweden, I bought a $1.99 trial key to see if she would get into the game. She completely ate it up (started with Nightfall) although I did have to hands-on teach a lot to her. But she found some very friendly people when I wasn't online and learned more things! 2 hours quickly turned into 10 and she found herself at the end of the trial period already. I wanted to buy the game for her but there was no gift option, so I had to go to a store, buy the physical Nightfall, and just give her the key over IM. At least I have a standard edition box to go with my collector's edition box I suppose, even though she's going to come to Florida later to probably get that as well, since it was a complete gift and all :P
