    "An option to turn on sharing the meter information with other players in the same group. This option should be disabled by default."

    Problem with this is people will require that you have it on share in PF/RF and will kick you otherwise.

    How is that different than people using the third party client? The only difference I see is that the current system allows them to use it, when breaking ToS, without your knowledge. With something in game you can choose to either group with them or not based on that information up front.

    It becomes another 'requirement' that sets the normal, just like 'no new player bonus.' Numbers will soon follow that. "No dps below X." Its easy enough to say 'don't party with people like that' but its also easy enough to join free companies/linkshells and organize things for oneself. Yet many people do not.

    Personally, I don't care one way or the other about meters. Sure they are fun to look at while playing WoW or something when you're curious about your ranking with other players but its not going to empower my experience either.

    Lets erase bonuses entirely because they're a requirement that excludes part of the playerbase.
