    1. You shouldnt be able to see the game ID anywhere

    Why? I am genuinely curious why you think no one should see this. It is not used to log-in anywhere or for any security purposes that I am aware of. It's not a social security or credit card number, it's the order in which your account was created (I believe). Also, just so there is no confusion, the ID I am talking about is the 3-5 digit number in the URL to your forum profile. Mine is 2687.

    2. People chose if they want to be recognized or not, it shouldnt be forced

    Kind of defeats the point of having the game be focused around socialization if you can't tell who anyone is. Being recognized is key to building a reputation, good or bad.

    Does he want to link our Forum and Community accounts? I don't get why they are separate in the first place, so sure.

    Yes. I'm not sure why they are separated either. They are a manifestation of the same account, so why not link them a bit more obviously?

    The the Dual Universe community is growing, rapidly, and the communities within Dual Universe are growing, too. The number of people in the community can make it difficult to keep track of who is who on the various platforms: Discord, Twitter, the forums, the community site. There isn't much that can be done about people going by different names on third party services, but it would be nice if it could be easier to tell which people on the forums are which people on the community site. This is a minor but consistent annoyance when socializing and when interviewing people to join organizations. 

     

    I propose a simple and minor fix: include people's DU ID in their community page profile. The ID already exists in the forum profile (look in the URL), should be easy to access since all the accounts are presumably stored in the same database, and as far as I am aware the ID cannot be used for any nefarious purpose. The ID could either be displayed in the URL on the community page or placed as a separate field on the page. Additionally, this change would allow people to create better third party tools.

    Would be nice feature if in game it would be possible to observe the situation of organizations/people, and maybe their relationships in this kind of formate (withfilters etc available) that updates automatically taking data stright from the game. 

    We can only hope ... that can be done relatively easily if they implement a proper API somewhere down the line

    Oh-oh-oh!

    I know what to do!
    Since you could make a broadcaster, you could try and spam from a list of words (such as SHUTDOWN, SELFDESTRUCT, DISABLE, POWERDOWN, etc.) to try and fuck up some poor dude's technological hovercraft.

    Sounds fun to me! :D
