Friends List.

This has been completed but it's currently being optimised for the server.

i think that /alts should show all of your registered alts, and you should have a checkbox in the setting to choose who can see all alts. I know that drivers or golbal drivers can see your recent alts, but it would be cool to see all of your past alts, and if you dont want people seeing them, you can change that in settings

Friends List.

They have never even gotten to adding friends yet...but I think a friend system would be cool.

I know that drivers or golbal drivers can see your recent alts, but it would be cool to see all of your past alts, and if you dont want people seeing them, you can change that in settings

To add to that, I think a system so that when you are registered as a mod, etc, the status could go to them too.

I think it'd be great if we could get a temporary notification, similar to when it has just become your turn, for when the timer in a battle has gone down to something like 30 seconds. It's annoying when you're in a competitive battle scenario and you want to calculate a couple things or just go to a different tab for anything and you either have to constantly check back on the timer to not accidentally lose. If you got a temporary notification, you wouldn't have to worry about something as silly as that and I would hope that it wouldn't be terribly difficult to implement.

I think that an in-battle calc would be a better way to resolve that.

I will presume with this, you mean that it won't show up, even by doing /whois, so I will

The main thing I see with this is that if you can choose who sees your alts, Globals would be able to see your pivate alts, yes, yet what about room auth? Room auth also deal with trollers and spammers, so if someone autobans a person, and you are unable to see alts, you could easily pretend to be not a person.

Now, I may have read your idea wrong, yet from what I got from the idea is just a way for spammers to spam easier.

Hmm, maybe make the alts thing a completely hidden thing could solve 3/4 of the problem.

I've always liked watching high level matches, but they're often difficult to find. One thing that would be nice is to be able to see the player ratings next to the player names in the "Watch a battle" screen. Also, being able to sort the battles by rating (i.e. sort by the higher-rated player in each battle) would allow spectators to conveniently find high-level matches.

I think what he means is:
if (!target && isRegistered) return alts(user)
or whatever the actual function would be.

I can foresee some security issues with this, however, and I'm not exactly sure why you'd need this? Surely you don't have so many registered alts you can't remember what they all are lol.

Not sure where to put this, but well, it's a tier suggestion so I guess it'd be here...

Just suggesting, why not making a tier of "Monotype doubles"? I think it'd be really great

you can just make a smogon doubles team, make it monotype, and go to the monotype room and ask for a battle, I know I have, it's pretty great. Maybe if this is implemented, it'd be a challenge only format, not a ladder.

I don't tend to use a monotype in OU, and when I play in doubles is not the exception, I mean figthing against another monotypes in doubles, but I understand

Edit: Nevermind, I misread this lol, that'd fix the deal, but it'd be nice to have a ladder for that

I think a great addition to showdown would be the ability to both have a friends list and a search for player option in which you could find someone without having to be in the same room with them.

As for the second part, you can do "/user person's name" to find someone who's not in the same room as you.

A color change for the names would be nice, but I guess it would be super low priority.

Colour changes won't ever be a thing to do freely as it could make auth impersonation much easier. Colours also make users recognisable - that certainly wouldn't be the case with people constantly changing their name colours.

 

[Plague von Karma]

Vacate I think color changes would be cool. Like, in my eyes it could be cool if my Gym Leader Brock Account could be grey instead of a strange yellow...

 

[TheBluRaichu]

I just got lucky that my username was blue in showdown. I know that is probably not top priority right now but it would be a nice feature to have.

 

[D-Ssain]

Maybe one color change per address, so that people who really want to remove a bad color, like muah, aha can do it once and there is no abuse.

You only need one colour change to impersonate auth.

 

[Rose Petal]

The color-change option would be nice, but I can also see how it would be easy for one to impersonate another.

Can we get this to happen? Every time I want to view a match it's always some lower ladder match that isn't entertaining... Being able to see better players play would be nice.

I've brought this forward to staff. No guarantee on its implementation, but it's there.

Add a type of color change that only appears to you, for example if you decide to change your color from Purple to Blue then you will see your name as Blue, but other people will see it as Purple

 

[skies]

What do you think of implementing folders? It would be very helpful to keep track of teams and would make everything much more organized. This is for teams, by the way. One other thing I'd like to suggest is the ability to ignore !. This is pretty silly and random, but you can ignore a lot of other things and idk, it sounds cool.

So, whatever happened to a little sticky web animation that stays like spikes/t.spikes/sr? would be really nice, a lot of people often forget sw is even there sometimes lol, and it would be convenient

 

[Plague von Karma]

I'd also like to see Sticky Web Animations, and speaking of animations, when will most of the XY BW version sprites get animated? It's getting really irritating...
