I just came in to post what probably has been said a hundred times:
The shoops look amazingly good. And the proposal looks efficient.

Seriously, if it didn't say "proposed" in the topic I would've exploded with excitement over this "update" thinking it was official. And it should be.

Dang it Square, I hope search is priority come pass the next patch, not all of us come in here with friends, we gotta find the people for the content. Some of us are even suffering other games, because friends are there.

TL;DR: Shoop is amazing, proposal shatters current system, listen to this man.
