    Only bad players need agro icons telling them things they should either already know or know they don't know and thus act accordingly. If you give them agro icons, you're telling a lot of players you're catering to bad players.

    Bad players have no concept of knowing what they don't know.
    If you don't know it agroes, the good player assumes it does and either asks or tests in a safe manner.
    The bad player dies and cries.

    Toggling does not make this okay. Agro icon players are bad players to us. They don't pay attention. They don't think. They don't remember. They don't learn. They require being told. Suffering bad players by molding the game around them alienates the players who are mindful and proficient enough in ANY mmo field not to die like a noob.
    Peregrine as radical as I think you are taking this I can understand where your coming from. I just don't see the icon serious enough to complain about it. I feel adding AA holds more ground for an argument then some icon that will only stop people from going to wiki. You throw your opinions around almost trying to force them on people while bashing those that don't agree. That is what I disagree with but not enough to dispute it which is why I didn't quote you(or any others against the icon) in the other post.
