Default Additional Benefits for Account naming.

If you remember, when they overhauled HB and added the ATS, they allowed people to name their accounts. The benefit of this was being able to partisipate in the ATS/HB. With how the HoM was made to be character based, this has lead alot of people into picking which character they want to maximize their hall, and not worry about developing the other characters. It would be nice to be able to play on different characters, and still be working on benefits in GW2.
This leads to my suggestion. Allow whatever acheivements from all characters from an account to be merged to the the character who the account is named after. I will now go down the list of how I believe how the merger should go about.
Reputation, lightbringer/sunspear, vanquisher, protector/guardian, skill hunter, and consumable titles should display this highest "score" of all your characters. Meaning if you have two characters with 1/13 cathan protector and 12/13 cathan protector, 12/13 cathan protector would be displayed. I would also apply this method to Survivor/LDoA titles.
Wisdom and Teasure Hunter would have the sum of all the points of earned from the characters. The reason for this over the high score methed is because those two title are massive grinds, comparable to lucky and savior titles which are accoutn based.
The Monument of "Honor" in the HoM would only allow you to add statues for titles that account-named character would have added without the merging. This means that a character can't add statues they they haven't earned. But whenever a character who the account isn't named after adds a statues, the account-named character also gains it. This would apply to all the other monuments. This would actually increase the grind for "Resilence". To unlock all armor statues, you would have to have at least 2 character (with one being rit/sin) to get all 18 types of armor, the current system allow core character to get 16, sin/rit 11, paragons/derv 8.
As many know you can change your account name every 30 days. Once you change your account name ot a new character, the former character revert back to the titles it has earned on it own (without the merging), and lose statues gained from the merger. The newly account named character would gain all title/statues taken from the other character.
Plz give feedback.

2 words:

crap idea

Solution:

Just make Wisdom, Treasure Hunter, Drunkard, Sweettooth and Party Animal Tittle account based and the Hall of Monuments/Minipets/Heroes (Hero Armor) an account based feature (place), where the player will show all his gainings from all his characters being limited to 8 Characters max, that the HoM will show. (affects only Elite armor Monument)

When anet makes finally this important step, then would make GW again so much fun, as it has done, when Prophecies only existed.

Anet should stop on hearing on the permanent massive QQ from selfish people, they have no real reason against it, why anet shouldn't improve the gameplay of GW to let the game become more fun again, other than their personal QQ about needed changes and the results they would mean

Forcing people to do so much for each individual character is pretty much what they want you to do. In the end, do you really think most games nowadays target the playable aspect of games? What makes people keep coming back for more is the aspect of time-wasting.

I do like the idea of Wisdom, Drunkard, etc... being account based, but sadly, do you really think that'll ever happen? Of course not.
