Good afternoon, I've been working on supporting the RP community with an event calendar on the Crystal server for a few years now. I'd like to have an official away to confirm that someone is as they say they are in game.

Other games do this via an implementation of oauth that gets you a token which can be used to pull certain account information (IE: a set of character id's from the loadstone)

I would add some other related services to this, and to stream like the event submission / updating process, but this would require some way to automate tieing the request to an in game entity. There are some ways to do this currently but they are cludgy and slow to take effect. IE: requiring people to add a token into their character bio and waiting for the loadstone to update to validate ownership.

If we could get some official oauth support, even if it is just a list of the character ID's this would go a long way to streamlining the process.

I'm certain many other 3rd party developers would be more then happy to have something like this available as well.

Thanks,
