How about if the vendetta forum is reprogrammed so that when a player posts a new thread, it prompts them for the necessary info? Like it has several boxes that call for target, mob, level, weapons, location, reasons, etc? This would certainly help the noobs that either fail to read mystery's post or are confused by it (which happens sometimes).

Yes; many suggestions here have been implemented.

I'm surprised this hasn't been implemented given the number of complaints on the vendetta forum. Anybody know if there is a technical obstacle to this?

Not sure, if it's just prompting then I don't think the code would be too difficult to write, but if you are talking about putting tables to fill the data into then that would require rewriting or implementing a completely new forum structure for posting.

Even if the text box just has headings, it would help. I'm seeing level 60+ players on here putting up some pretty lame posts on the vendetta forum. Its mostly laziness, but with some folks it seems like they don't speak english too well. If there are prompts, it will certainly lead to better vendetta posts. And as much as certain players on here like to ER bad posters, I think overall it would be an improvement.
