Idea for PVP and hearing other Factions

I used to play an MMORPG called Shaiya close to a decade ago, and it had a phenomenal PVP system. One of the skills that a player could acquire was a PVP skill that was called "Interpretation" I believe. Now this skill had 3 skill points you could put into it. Without any skill points all you could see from the text of another faction was something along the lines of "OpposingPlayerName: &# *##& $@ *%&$ #&$ *##^ @#&$ @!&&". The more points that you put into the skill the more you could understand the opposing player such as with 1 skill point it would read: "OpposingPlayerName: W# *e#& t@ *%i$ #h$ *#s^ @#d$ k!&&". And with two points in it would be something like this: "OpposingPlayerName: We *e#d to *ai$ #he *#st s#d$ k!&p". And finally with all points put into this skill you could fully read into what the opposing player was saying: "OpposingPlayerName: We need to raid the west side keep".

I think this would be an awesome addition to PVP as you would be able to possibly call somebody out for a 1v1 in a special location, and of course this would only be limited to /say or /yell. I am interested in your thoughts on this or where I could post this for others to see.

    considering the fact most people dont really talk in /say and /yell i dont see the point to this. Not to mention you can already message people from the opposite faction

    This has already been suggested back during closed beta testing and early access and the first months of the game. The answer we got from the devs was a resounding no, as I recall.

    Pretty sure that's not going to change.
    I am not spending a single penny on the game until changes are made to the game that I want to see.
    1) Remove having to be in a guild to sell items to other players at a kiosk.
    2) Cosmetic modding for armor and clothing.
    3) Difficulty slider.
    4) Fully customizable player housing that isn't tied to anything in the game other than having the correct resources and enough gold to build. Don't tie it to PvP, guild membership, or anything at all. Oh, make it instanced so as not to take up world map space, too. Zeni screwed this one up already.
    Any /one/ of these things implemented would get me spending again, maybe even subbing.

    I'm sure people do not use these commands because as of right now there is no point of using them.
