I really like this idea!! Would love to have glasses along with, helm or hat!!

I'm 100% with this, even if you equipping both slots blocks the stats off one of them.

Oh please god no. I already spend too much repairing the slots that I have.

Well, as was stated before, it would serve as a purely cosmetic piece, similar to undergarments, meaning it wouldn't lose durability.

I would equip a palm in my face slot. *chuckles*

I'm all for more ways to customise character looks, the face slot could purely be an aesthetic equipment slot, im sure there are lots of other slots you could add for aesthetic purposes. Capes, face, hairpin, tunics, tabards lots of different slots you could go for.

I decided to revisit the forums today and I rediscovered this tread! Fabulous.

Also, REMOVE SLOT COSTS!

So as you all know, we already have "head" gear slot. Unfortunately, this also groups gear such as glasses, goggles, masks, etc. into "head" gear as well. While this is technically true (they are on the head), I propose that "head" be split into two groups: "head" and "face."

That way, I can still be wearing glasses, for instance, while I'm wearing a cowl or some sort of hat. Gear such as a Velveteen Sugarloaf Hat (which adds tiny glasses) would display the "face" gear instead, unless specified otherwise using a text command such as /display face off. Helms (which sometimes cover the whole face) would obviously continue to obstruct the "face" gear no matter what, unless of course they decide to implement an option to put up visors, in which case the face gear would become visible.

So SE...am I not allowed to wear glasses all the time? My poor Lalafell eyes are bad enough already; walking around without my prescription glasses would only worsen my eyesight. So please, allow me to wear my glasses all the time.

Also, I realize that "face" gear sounds a bit awkward, but it's the only word I could think of that accurately describes the region that this gear would be worn. If anyone has a better idea, please feel free to let me know!

EDIT (4/23/2011): As Forde noted in this post, the terms "upper," "middle" and possibly also "lower" head gear sound much more appealing. Thanks for the suggestion!

Good Idea
I support this

I'd rather this than glowing weapons and smileys in the chat log.

Shameless bump because I edited a picture of myself as an example.
