*Customise the colour of our custom title. I know a few people have been interested in this. Perhaps a few levels, which provide more and more colours to players - I see no harm in this.
*Add 1-2 broker slots. Quite helpful when trying to broker 200m uu and 9k AT to people - The brokers were never intended to be used as a place to hide resources during ascension. This would only encourage it further. 3 brokers is sufficient for what the market was intended for.
*Customised text colours. Mostly for the common white text that is used - White on black, while dull, works just fine.
*Customise background colour. This to help with the customised text colour. So people don't go black on black. - If you're gonna do this, the text/background should be a package deal. Pointless to do one without the other. There will always be some idiot that will buy black text first, then won't be able to see where to change his background customized color because he can't read anything.
*Add background image. I know this was suggested else where. Perhaps just a few images we can choose from, and have tiled for our background, ascended style - As stated before, images are bad on page loading times.

:lol: So funny yet so true. I can see the threads "I can't see my writing any more, what happened!"
Ok, so background and font colour linked.

Ok. A 20kb image might not seem like much.
Consider this. For every 1000 attacks made, 10MB would've been used up by the image alone.

Compare the amount of people that actively mass in ascended with the number of people who active mass in main.
Besides. Rare to see anyone in asc without crit.

So? Do people do it? Yes. Do they cop the 10MB download to do it yes. And if you don't want it, don't buy the tech, if you buy it, then decide you don't like it, set it to none.

Point being? Still takes same number of hits, just means the massive download of 10mb is over an our, instead of 5 mins.
