Edited by: Makhar on 26/07/2011 09:02:35 Nice tool. Can I suggest a 'submit' feature to allow users to submit new user ids / character names? If you were at war with someone and your tool provided 8/9 of the names, but you knew the names of the others, you might want to provide the other names to help others.
People might not, but they might and I think they should be able to and it should be pretty easy to add that I think?

Originally by: Kronus Heilgar Yes, this feature already exists. Click on your email address in the top right corner, then click "Submit Characters". For every character you submit that's not already in the database, you receive a credit in the form of free account time.
There's also a link on the main page to the feature, with the tagline "Want free account time?"
Great, then perhaps put the link to submit more characters in a more obvious place? I completely missed it. Perhaps on the results page near where it says "X members (y known) - Add unknown members and get free account credits" |

Have been playing some more with it submitting names and so on. Very impressed, I'm away for a week or so but will sub when I get back.
Price does seem a little steep however at 520m per account per year. Perhaps a discount for subbing for a year at a time? At least, it is steep enough to make me want to code my own. Were it half that price I probably wouldn't bother and would just continue using yours. When I get back tho I will send cash for 6 months sub and use yours while I code my own, unless you decide to lower the price in the mean-time at the very least I think the price of a 6-month sub is worth it as a thank-you for the idea. Hadn't thought of doin this until now. |

What costs? If you need hosting I'd be happy to provide hosting in exchange for a complimentary account. In terms of telling my friends, we'll see. If I decide not to code my own in direct competition then I might. Otherwise, I'd probably be better off waiting and telling them about mine  |

Nice server setup, should make for a speedy service :) I'd be interested to know where you're getting dedicated servers for $20 a month tho, care to share (or maybe they have a referral scheme that gets you something?) I'm paying double that at the moment for my servers.
As for comments, it would be a nice feature, but as you say - open to abuse, as would tagging. If you do tagging there'd need to be a way for people to dispute malicious tagging. Either way you'd need moderators, which adds an overhead.
If I do create my own it will be a little way off and might not be made public, we'll see. For now I'll use yours and see how we go :-)

A few more feature suggestions for ya :-)
Subscribe to player/corp/alliance opt to receive e-mail notification to changes to member lists of corps/alliances or corp change for a character.
intel links each player/corp/alliance profile could have links to battleclinic and/or eve-kill public killboards and to eve-search and perhaps to their eve-gate profile to assist with intel-gathering. corps and alliances could be linked to their dotlan maps profile, etc..
historical data on player profiles show a list of known former corps. it wouldn't build a full employment history but perhaps over time would be close.
on corp/alliance profiles you could have lists of former members perhaps?

Hey there, another free bump from the guy who likes mysterious bald men (apparently)
also, a quick bug rep..
tried submitting Chiang Kai-Shek and it called me a Jerk for submitting disallowed characters. I figured it doesn't like the hyphen - however this is a perfectly valid EVE character name (see https://gate.eveonline.com/Profile/Chiang%20Kai-Shek) -- High, low and null sec mining corp - Now Recruiting! |
