A whisper-to-target system (Discussion)

The idea is simple: if you target a player character, the name that automatically pops up in the 'whisper' window is theirs. This would speed the chat system greatly. If a radial menu system was added, you could even, for instance, right-click another player and choose 'send whisper'.


Why this is a good idea
  • Would speed up the chat system and make it more convenient
  • You wouldn't have to fear people with complicated names
  • You could whisper to people based on sight, instead of having to look up their name and how it's spelled
Why it may not work out
  • If you can't target them, you still have to type in their name (of course, it would still help)
  • You might keep someone targeted by accident and send them a whisper when you meant not to.
  • isn't this already implemented in GW1? target player and press CTRL+Enter.
  • Only if it is an option, do not want random person to target my character and send random whispers.
