* Friend list should allow us to add a note to each entry (remember who they are or where you met them etc. Something to jog my memory. I have these long lists of people whom I can't recall why I know them).
* Friend list should show names of characters who are online in bold or color highlighted

Holy crap. There are that many of you that are that anti-postal system?
A postal system would really ruin the game that much for you?
we are against wasted developer time...
there is an alternative already available, so why the hell should mythic waste limited resources on a useless feature

Why Mail?
1. Mythic is still trying to attract noobs and while leveling is quicker today than it once was, most noobs want to transfer gold and items to alts long before those noobs ever level up enough to be able to afford a home.
2. First impressions mean a lot and most noobs make the decision to resub or cancel long before they level up enough to own a home.
3. In most other games noobs have the ability to transfer things to alts and most players that come to DAoC from other games expect to have the ability to transfer things to alts in DAoC.
4. Some players do not want a home. They do not want to play Sims and they do not want to hunt through housing looking for open lots. Many players do like to play in Foundations, but many players do not care about Foundations.
Back when the game had a huge subscriber base there were only enough lots for about 30% of those who scrubscribed. A greater percentage may have homes today but history shows that a high percentage of players do not necessarily want a home.
It is true that Mythic has limited resources and it is true that there are many things Mythic needs to focus on but most of the code for a mail system should already exist at WH. Coding mail for DAoC, if done correctly, should not consume huge amounts of resources.

I thought it was 75% of the value back, but I could be wrong.
I suggest you test this before buying 100 plat of housing stuff.
housing items, bought and sold in house, is difrent then other npcs
Exactly.
If your alt sells the housing items to a normal NPC merchant then there is a loss but if the alt sells the housing items back to the same housing window that the items were purchased from, the items sell for 100% of the purchase price.
Please correct me, but isn't the most expensive in-house item you can sell back at full value a 250g throne/chair? I have one house vault pagealmost full of these in case an alt toon needs some cash quick.

How bout a port system to towers which you control so you can get back in the fight almost instantly.
This running down to the dock, taking the boat, then trying to make it across miles of NF to get back to the fight is just stupid.
For one, if you're a vizzy 9 times out of 10 you're toast. Plus the travel speed in NF is cut in half. So that makes it even harder.
They need to make normal travel speed in NF what sprint speed in NF is now. (speed clases would still be faster, so chill)
On top of that, they need to get rid of the movement reduction speed while in combat.
You speed in and out of combat should remain the same. (unless poisoned, snared, rooted or mezzed)
