I was thinking more along the lines of you create the item name yourself. So for my amp (that i make from specific mats in Zorai for example, with specific stats) i would call the "Alibooma Amplifier".

I spoke with a good friend (IG) of mine, Scarazi, about this. She agreed, and makes swords and has a specific sword she would love to call the "Scarazi sword".

I want to know who made what Im buying, and if it is someone different to the person selling it, and I want to be able to check who made the gear I'm using when it needs replacing... this is how it was working... all this information needs to remain.
However if you are talking about letting the crafter add text to their creations - as a secondary name for the item, then I'm all in favour of that :)

Probably as a trainer skill brick, unless you can come up a completely neutral rite source.
I dont take missions from karavan OR kami, too many friends on both sides :)



/edit.. btw, i really like the idea of hurting resellers...

I'm not really a crafter. I have my mace at a pretty decent level but noone buys them anyway :)

I really like having the crafter's name on the item. Call me a selfish consumer if you want but knowing who can craft what makes finding the rarer items easier. I never /tell a crafter I find this way, it's usually if I bump into them or send them a mail that I'll request a custom order. Is that really discouraging for people? I guess haven't been too sensitive about it...

I think the names on items help develop a community - just my 2 cents.

I like names on items - a feature to set the crafter name to 'anonymous' would be nice, but it would is 'a nice to have' feature and in my opinion should only be considered if the current code base and client software is already capable of supporting such a feature, there is much more that could be added/implemented prior to this that would have a greater impact on gameplay.

I was one of the very few people complaining about the sudden compulsory introduction of crafters names on items when it happened mid November, tho most people agreed with me then that it should be optional for the crafter to display this information, if possible. I am still of that opinion.
