About addons -- don't make them use Adobe Flash, please....

I just hope the addon community is more like WoW than say LOTRO lol.

I'm not too familiar with LotRO. What is the addon community like there, and why don't you want FFXIV to emulate them?

Last time I checked the addon community isn't very active, the addons in general aren't very useful either, I'm not sure this is due to the developers not allowing players access to specific functions or whether the community just isn't interested in making good addons.

It goes back to what I said about SE providing a good API so that addon developers can make specific calls to the server for data. (this is something they will need to build upon over the course of the game no doubt, hopefully they will have a sub-forum for addons)

I have hope that FFXIV will have good ones because windower was quite well made given its lack of support from SE.

On a personal note, I like my screen to stay pretty clear... so unless an add-on is EXTREMELY useful then I'll pass

I am the same, a lot of the addons I use in the past have been things which stay hidden unless you are doing specific functions.

Something like an addon which can download the price history from the marketward, or one that can help manage gear when swapping between classes (I know they have something official planned for this)

Better inventory sorting functions etc.

I like that idea
