Mail system has been asked for constantly for at least the time since WoW went to open beta.
Reason against chopping zeros off? Ever bought inspirations? Things DO sell for only a small amount of inf.
[ QUOTE ]
We need a mailbox, stat!
For transferring inf., salvage, enhancements, tickets, etc. to characters on your own account or other characters and friends ingame. It's rediculous having to trust someone else you may not know with your stuff. And it sucks when you play solo a lot. You ain't got time to do all the arrangements for 9,999,999 one trade at a time to some stranger just to hope and pray he doesn't take your lo0tz.
We need this fast. Like tomorrow, maybe? (wishful thinking)

Ok. For all of you who want to "email ingame items to myself", I give you a challenge.
Come up with a VALID reason as to WHY you should be allowed to mail emails to myself by following these rules:
(1) Refrain from using OTHER MMOs as a source of reference.
(2) The reason(s) MUST be in paragraph form. None of the following will be allowed:
(a) Because it would be cool.
(b) Because we need it.
(c) Because I'm bored.
(Invalid reasons)
(3) Spell check and sentence structure is important. (Remember you're trying to convince the majority of players WHY this feature is needed. Please, sound out the word(s) before you type them.)
(4) Your statements MUST be based on FACT and NOT the rantings of a 5 year old that just wants and wants and wants.
(5) Your reason(s) must FIX the issues rather than create new ones
So, there you have it. Lets see what you've got.
[ QUOTE ]
Another suggestion is that we condense inf. Why do we buy things for like 60,000-5mil inf? Why not condense it down to like 60-100 inf. for enhancements at lower levels and a few thousand for higher level or more rare enhancements, recipes, salvage, etc.
It'd make money easier to handle, IMO.

In an effort to convey a simple and direct response consisting primarily of the sentiment expressed in the word no, and in the honest belief that such a term is not intrinsically rude or insulting, while nonetheless avoiding the sting of moderation due to the policies outlined by Ex Libris while concurrently avoiding further elaboration upon the aforementioned simple response, the author has shamelessly endeavored to construct a post of artificially ludicrous length yet, he sincerely hopes, undeniably civil and even apologetic tone.
Sadly, the author has been placed in the unfortunate position of crafting a meandering and nearly devoid-of-meaning message due to the misperception, by some, that responding to topics in certain allegedly-more-important sections of these forums with an unadorned no constitutes, in some unfathomable to the author form, a direct and inexcusable attack on the originator of that topic, and indeed, upon the processes of conversation and discussion themselves. From whence this mystical power to stop all discourse arises, the author is sadly ignorant, for it seems to hold no such power in his experience and observation; indeed, it seems innately to promt a renewal of that discourse, in the form of another single and unadorned word: "why?"
In the meantime, the author wishes to renew his apologies for wasting so much of his readers' time in this probably all too vain and futile effort, with the observation that should you the reader have continued perusing these words to this point, it seems an inescapable conclusion that some modicum of entertainment value has been derived from them. Perhaps, if this is indeed the case, it would be advisable for the reader to seek a more fulfilling and engaging form of entertainment - for which, the author would humbly beg the privilege of recommending that the reader actually log onto the City of Heroes/Villains(TM) game servers for an hour or more; such an activity would certainly provide a more enriching and pleasing diversion for him or her (should the reader so elect, they may insert the gender-designative term of their preference here, as the author does not wish to give offense on any grounds aside from the unnaturally drawn-out length of this post).
(Thanks to ScottWild and Pax for the responses I pasted.)
Edit: changed "mail emails" to "email ingame items"
Oh and to help you out in the future before posting:
a tip on searching.
1. Click on "Search" up at the top of the forum.
2. On the left, under "Forum(s) to search," select "Suggestions and ideas."
3. On the right, Keyword Search Terms. This is probably where your problem was if you did search. Try the following, exactly as typed:
+vehicle -"re: "
This will search for anything with the string "vehicle" in the title.The -re: portion of it removes replies, so you'll see the root of every thread that comes up, letting you see just how many threads there are on this. (The last helps for other subjects, as well.)
Be sure to put the space between the colon and last quote.
4. Click the "In subject" radio button. This is a search, not a cute blonde in a bikini. Here, you want to ignore the body.
5. Leave Username Search blank.
6. Date range, Newer Than, change the 1 to a 3, and the time to Months.
7. Result format doesn't matter. Click on "Submit."

""You ain't got time to do all the arrangements for 9,999,999 one trade at a time to some stranger just to hope and pray he doesn't take your lo0tz.""
When was the last time you played the game? we have been able to transfer up to 2 billion ifluence at a time now. and if you don't have any friends in your global that can help you, maybe you might try someone in your sg.
oh, and search is your friend.

Heck many of us can remember when we could only transfer 99,999 at a time so 10 million per transfer is nothing to whine about.

[/ QUOTE ] Somebody didn't like my original post on this statement(it was a little harsh) I'll rephrase the entire thing this way: The post I'm quoting is stupid. It's a moron's challenge. And ANYBODY that believes the quoted material is a good point is an idiot.

[/ QUOTE ] You can trade more than 9,999,999 at a time. Other than that, I agree completely. I would be happy if it was limited to only being able to transfer stuff to your account(leaving out friends, etc).
People already transfer stuff to their alts, why not make it more secure? Some will claim just because people already do it, that isn't enough reason. OK, I can buy that. But why not? How does it harm ANYBODY ELSE for me to be able to move an enhancement(or influence or recipe) from one of my characters to another one of my characters? In fact, other than me jumping through less hoops, what difference is there at all? Tell me that. How does it hurt anybody else? How?

Just some friendly advice, you aren't going to get much support if you go around calling the people who are agreeing with you [censored]'s
It is however a great way to get your post locked or even deleted. Then your idea will fade away into obscurity never to be seen again.

Do you forget that Cryptic isn't here anymore. I love how people don't understand how a discussion works. You present an idea, and then people will agree or disagre with your idea. This is not " i have an idea and everybody better agree with me!" If you can't play nice, take your ball and go home.

munki, if you look forbin replied to the OP who replied to you calling you whatever.
The OP called you a [censored], MunkiLord!!! Of course, there are multiple things that [censored] could be hiding... 
Which would you prefer?
