I love the idea behind it. I was a big fan. It looks like it getting worse as time passes though. It is no longer beta, but more charlie or delta. I think it might be time to pull the plug on it.

I think this was probably someones idea years ago that is no longer with Turbine. This is clearly on the backburner of their "todo" list. Something bigger and better will come along and this will fade away. I think you are right.....

I love using MyDDO. It would be nice if it didn't just error out every time you tried to look up an epic toon, though.
I was thinking it was in it’s “Charlie” or “Foxtrot” phase. It cannot display Artificers, Druids nor Epic Characters. Time to pull the plug on it or update it and turn it into something useful. (ex. offline inventory/bank search for users; Raid timers; E.D. progress.)
Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
- Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
- Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
- Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
- Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
- Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.
Yeah, they do love their half finished half baked systems.
That said pulling the plug on them can not be the answer for all of them. At some point Turbine just needs to buckle down and actually finish what they have started.

Agreed. At least the in game portion is completely unusable now.

I'm willing to bet that a lot of the MyDDO problems (maybe most) would go away if all of the data in it were just blanked out entirely and allowed to repopulate over time as people logged in with their characters.
this is turbine you are talking about.
They can fix it. They have some (and i mean some) talented people. They they have others. Ya know, the kind of people who can code worthless gear.
The devs could fix it. Its just not important to them because there are no ddo store tie-ins with myddo. If they could find a way to make a buck off of it, it would work flawlessly (or what passes for flawless for turbine at any rate).

I really wish they wouldn't. I'd so much prefer if they stopped producing more epic content which was just heroic content re-hashed, especially if it's going to stop people doing the lvl 7-12 versions in favour of the higher xp epic versions.
I mean seriously, disconnect the two so we can do the heroic ones and still do the epic versions later and it still counts as a first time entry. It's not like the lvl 7 von 1 bears much resemblance difficulty wise to the epic version, plus there's so few people doing the heroic versions of the heroic/epic quests now for just that reason, the first-time BB bonus.

Stick a fork in it. The characters that I can actually bring up on my account are outdated and wrong. We've been asking for this stuff to be fixed forever with no response as to what their plans are. It's just an embarassing mess at this point.
Google "YourDDO", I've found that it works on my epic level characters as well as most others that I try to look up. It doesn't work for everyone though, but it's funny that it works better than the in-game version. Also, this one isn't quite as convenient since it's not in-game. Although... I went to my MyDDO page, here on the site, and posted a link in a journal entry, so now while I'm playing DDO I can bring up the MyDDO panel and the link is there and I can use it in-game. Unfortunately today it seems to be showing most characters classes as druid, but by checking their gear or the "Who" tab class(es) can be determined. Just something to try, I've found it works pretty well.
