Default X button warning
After two hours of doing the deep for zq, getting too kanaxai, i lagged and i clicked ithe X in the top by accident and lost 2 hours of my life doing the run...

I propose adding a "Are you sure" box to the X in the top right to stop stuff like this happening...

ilol'd

If it wasnt for fact id get a ban without justifying that comment i wouldnt type more.

As i will i'll explain.

ANYONE who is going survivor knows you go to guildhall, as hitting x can leave you in game for a small amount of time, same with city jumping.

Or get the best of both worlds and make it an option in the option menu.
(A "Tic here if you want a warning when you press the "x"" option)

Personally I like it as is, and I've never gone for survivor.
But more options is always nice if ppl find the need for them.

I don't see how having lag and pressing the X are connected... Maybe it's just me...

i agree with the original point, ive closed the game 4/5 of the way thru Sacnoth VQ before, but i also agree that it could be irritating for some players.

Were you going for a minimize? Can't see why you were in that part of the screen otherwise.

Anyways...I don't see why that's necessarily a bad thing to add and Firith Lantmore's suggestion is great. Personally I find it way more annoying when I forget to hit enter and open/close about a dozen windows (I type fast). This is often exacerbated by lag as well...such is life.

OP probably (read: hopefully) means graphic lag, not network lag.

even then, clicking when you don't know the real location of your mouse is an inherently risky business, and as such should be left to the experts.

Agreed... I've never had a problem with this in my entire GW career. My mouse is never ever ever ever in that area unless I am going to.... wait... My mouse is NEVER in that area. :\ I use alt+enter to maximize/window.

I guess having great hand-eye coodination helps me for this potential "problem". Meh...

I still would agree with zoning to GH > alt+f4/X/f12+c/ect. When you do any of the latter you can be left in-zone for a few moments afterwards(which is more than enough time needed to kill a survivor). The best way is to simply zone to your hall.

i think the problem with alt-f4 is there could be a server lag and you could be still sitting there getting hit or even killed.

on topic: it happens, ive done it a few times but i just make sure to use the hot keys and always keep my foes in the middle of my screen so i cant misclick anything except the wrong foe(of course thats what tab, [, ] are for).

Not always, usually when you have a network error. But meh..your right,

zoning > crashing the game

/signing this. It's an issue for those of us that click on targets sometimes instead of constant c-space. And real annoying when you want to minimze or window. (Don't say "use keyboard", what the hell are the buttons there for then? Actually just removing them entirely, or toggled in prefs, isn't a bad option.)
