Can I have the letter "D" waymark?

The three waymarks were created to coincide with the three parties in an alliance, so while there are situations in-game where there are more than 3 places to point your party members to, we don't have any plans to add a fourth waymark.

we don't have any plans to add a fourth waymark.

So it's a straight and flat No?
You won't even suggest it to the Devs as a low priority suggestion?

Maybe that's the answer he got after asking the devs?

You think the community rep makes the decisions? Surely he saw the thread, asked the devs, and is reporting their answer that they don't plan on adding it.

they always respond to things like this with no then give in when people dont give up. dont be discouraged.

That's a bit of a narrowed view honestly. Those waymarks are being used in a far grander scheme of things than just alliances, it's a good concept that should be worked out.

The development team needs to be flexible and look at how players are using the tools they have made and not get their thinking stuck inside the box.

If people are "not" using them for alliances but are using them as tools for positioning in 8 player raids to better coordination. Shouldn't the the Dev team look to adapt the system to the way the players are using them?

OK, you don't have plans to add a fourth. That's fine. Could you please consider MAKING plans to add a fourth?

Amen to that!

It honestly doesn't matter what the waymarks were originally intended for; waymarks are supposed to help teammates better coordinate themselves to effectively tackle something... it's foolish to limit them to 3 just because there are 3 parties to an alliance. There are numerous situations outside of alliances where I've seen waymarks used in Coil, Primals, and dungeons where an extra waymark would've made life easier and made communicating strategies more efficient.

I think what I find funny is how this was never a problem until 1 person makes the topic then everyone comes out the woodwork and get upset about the devs saying no lol.

The problem is that he admits there are situations where the extra waymark would be useful, and then turns around and goes "eh but we're not going to do anything about that". It's restrictive without any reason. And all OP was asking for was an extra letter, so there's no need to be obnoxious and extrapolate it to some extreme he/she clearly wasn't going to.

I wasn't talking about the OP (especially since you chose to cut off what I was actually talking about), but thanks. Also, how is it restrictive "without any reason"? You just proved my point that people would just ask for more and more if they added the 'D mark' because then it wouldn't be "good enough and we need an "E Mark".

How is it restrictive? People who use it never said as such or felt as such, some even relocate the 3 marks we have on the fly depending on the situation. Sure it would seem as such with a PUG because good luck herding them properly, but with organized raid groups? It hasn't been viewed as 'restrictive.'
