I feel slighted. I expected that you would be able to customize your own nameplate, picking what others can see about you. Your CP, the guild whose tabard you're wearing, your
@name, your alliance rank and your title; all of these added neatly to a nameplate similar to what we've had before in the game.
Instead the nameplate system lets you see customize what you see about others. It's bad enough that people have to "opt in" to see which guild you belong to; but "opting in" introduces a whole plethora of intrusive blue text to the game (quite WoW-esque, if you ask me) making it quite unlikely that even half of the gaming population ever would. Is it too late to ask for a swift re-think on how this system works?
My suggestion would be that the player decides what others can see about them on their "old nameplates" (ie, the thing you see when you hover your mouse over them); with most things (excluding character name and level) as toggles.
