Sick of Type 1 when rdy?
I think there should be a checkbox beside every players name in the party window. This way they can check it to make the leader aware when they are ready to start the mission, quest, HA, GvG or etc...Instead of asking everyone if they are ready, I see this as a much easier way to tell when everyone has there skills, attributes, set.

or don't start until you get a reply back? You've now solved the problem of everyone really being 1 for whatever you are doing, and no additional code needed! And it's already in the game!!
I'd rather the devs work on ways to improve our storage space frankly.

The bars are a little too bright, but it works.
/signed for all that guys ideas on guildhall.net
Why is it so hard to implement them when a guy on a forum just did it better then Anet probably ever will?

I'm so sick of coming back from a quick bathroom break to find us in a mission, when I didn't even know we finished looking for more party members...and oh, look, now we have 3 healers and only two damage-dealers... >< Or groups who don't listen to "hold on a sec while I change from channeling to restoration." Yeah, people should listen...but even groups that listen make silly mistakes, so it's useful, and easy to implement. Strong thumbs up.

I imagine they're busy fixing bugs or some such. That kind of thing isn't as easy as it might seem...hell, "even" Microsoft has a hell of a time at it... I'd give them the benefit of the doubt that they're trying hard to fix things up. I'd like some more (or perhaps, "better") communication on things they're considering implementing or working on implementing though...

Have you guys thought that people will automatically press 1, suddenly go afk to answer the door and then not come back for 20 minutes???
/notsigned. Manual procedures give you the assurance that everyone is available at the time that you ask them.

This is a super fabu idea! I hate having to wait for the preps and having to count numbers to make sure everyone is ready, but not to play devil's advocate, you'll still get people who will complain they weren't ready and forgot to uncheck the box.

This has already been considered: one of the suggestions was to have the "Ready" option only after the group leader selects "Enter Mission."
There are only 5ish posts above yours...please read them before responding.
