Item Rename

[PsychoBlonde]

This is just a vanity thing, but if there's one silly feature that I would LOVE to have, it'd be the ability to rename Cannith Crafted items somehow.

I realize that due to the chance for abuse (people giving items inappropriate names), this would probably be exhausting to implement. HOWEVER, I had an idea for something that MIGHT be easier to implement but would also be kinda fun: When you craft the item, it renames it as "Item by Your Toon Name" (As if you were some kind of fashion designer.) So you could have:

Goggles by Kimberlei

Or something like that. Plus, this would have the advantage that if you make something for someone, they always know WHO made the item for them.

Or, maybe this could go into the Item Description space?

Yes, okay, yes, it's VERY silly. But I think it'd still be a fun little thing. Maybe have Yaulthoon's Fashion Apprentice hanging out and he handles item renames/descriptions?

I kinda like the idea of adding it to the description. Maybe have it linked to the shard, for those unbound shards you just give your friends and say "Find a weapon you like and slap it on your own dang self!"

"These goggles were lovingly crafted by a team that included Maraga and Kimberlei..."

YES.

While this may appear silly, it is very important in a social game.

I'd hate to miss out on this.

This doesn't sound silly to me at all. I would LOVE to be able to name the items. If inappropriate names are the issue, just have a device where you put the item in, type the name you want to give it and it changes unless it doesn't pass a filter.

Wouldn't they then be called... Named Items?

This is actually pretty quirky and a cool idea to boot

I would like it if it was in the description space, "This item was crafted by <charname>".

That would also not interfere with posting/finding unbound in the AH, but still give some satisfaction to whomever crafted said item.

Precedent = Crafted LOTRO items. They all specify who made them in the item description. It's a shorter, 'made by <name>' version which would probably work better in the limited description space.
