Please implement a direct link from a forum-user to their lodestone-profile!

[Vidu]

Hello,

I hope this is the correct place to leave this suggestion that I've been thinking over for quite a bit of time now!

Basically I'd like to be able to either click the portrait or charactername of a foren-user (or rather: the character they picked as their main on the forums) and end up on the lodestone-page of said character. An alternative would be to add "Lodestone" to the drop-down menu that currently offers the (foren) profile and the posts a user made.

When giving advice on the forums its often helpful to take a look at what the character in question has already achieved - things like suggesting cross-class-skills or "things to do" often rely on information that users not always provide but that can be found on the lodestone. This information is already available to everyone who cares to look it up - the only "issue" here is a little nuisance: The lodestone-search-function is a bit annoyed, by having your own homeworld set as default to search for other people.
Bottomline: One can already look up the character of someone on the forums, its just a bit inconvenient. Seeing how the forum already pulls our character-data (name, picture, changing class, the level of our jobs etc. you get the idea) the two sides are obviously linked.
What I'm asking for now is to give us that link!

Kind regards,
Vidu

Heartfully agree with Vidu. Topics in which players ask for advice where such info would be beneficial to have quick at hand would be a nice QOL addition.
