PET

LEAGUE

  • Ability to extend a supergroup invitation to player not online; for example, via email
  • Allow columns within the supergroup display window to be toggled on/off (origin, etc.)
  • Use the color scheme from LFG/Search to show if a supergroup member is teamed, solo, on a full team, is a team leader, or looking for team, etc.
  • Add "custom" column to the the supergroup display window. Players could put character's battle cry, time they normally play, if they are on vacation, a message to the supergroup, etc. in this space

  • A toggle for where a character wants to display the supergroup's symbol (Chest, Upper Left, Cape Exterior)
  • A supergroup "calendar" utility -- something to make it easy for supergroups to schedule group events like task forces and things. Something where we could fill in dates of upcoming events and they would show up as sort of a second MoTD as the time approached or an SG EVENT sub-tab on the SG interface, where Leaders could post dates & descriptions of upcoming events, such as Trials, Task Forces, or Raids.
