^these are good ideas and have been suggested before but evony isn't about making their customers happy. They don't even realize the market competition - these small little things which are found in other similar online games will make their customers leave for those games; it's only matter of time until people find out about those games and say goodbye to evony and its sucky customer relation.
big chunk of players from my server (including myself) have left evony
little you realize that most of the quitters are warmangors who spent lots of money on their heros, war buffs etc...not to mention that a big group only gets smaller as more leave. Few at the beginning may not make a big difference but as more leave the group will only get smaller and smaller.
