Too many addons is a bad thing because there are so many and everyone has different preferences. 

I wish there was an easy way to load mods based on preference.  We will be looking to find a solution in the future that allows for a more user specific set of mods.

the only way i can see this possible is if you guys had every person who signed up a little bit of space on a server that they could use to save their add-ons and game preferances to. i think its possible because my school has a system kinda like this however it could be quite expensive.

it would work something like this. a custome walks in, signs in at the main desk and gets a computer. He/she then sits down at the computer and types their log-in into the computer. anything they save such as game settings and, in this case, add-ons would be saved to under his log-in name on his specific spot on the server to be called up at any time in a later date. This would allow all customers to have their own settings and add-ons from any computer at any given time.

I can, however, see a couple flaws in this.  One is how you would get the saved add-on files to the correct directory in the game files by simply logging in on the computer I don't have a solution to this because I'm only a high school student and know nothing about networking or anything of that sort Tongue and the other would be the expenses each account at CPG would need they're own space on a server which would cost alot of money. The only solution I can come up with for this is have it as an optional flat, once in a lifetime fee. in other words it would only work for the regulars. basically if you want to be able to have the ability to do this you would need to pay for you're spot on the server. you could eve have it prices based on space in increments of $15 starting at $30 or whatever. i don't know what a good amount of server space would be for just holding settings and add-ons but i wouldn't imagine it being too much. maybe 15-20 gig?

I don't know i just wrote this up on the fly to throw out some outlandish ideas.  Roll Eyes

I believe this is a good idea...i would like addons for WoW... say recount, xperl, healbot, omen, lootmaster, deadly boss mods... i use these for raiding and instance on world of warcraft... i think they are great addons and feel that people could turn them off... and maybe show some people some new addons or addons all together. This sounds like a lot of addons but a lot of guilds require some of them and some help you with the game. I would love to see this downloaded. My suggestion is to use Curse.com... and maybe the curse client to download and update them.

We have explored this idea many times and it is very difficult to implement a good solution for everyone's needs.  All of the PCs contain the top mods required for basic game play.  Omen, recount, dbm, bartender, healbot, auctioneer, and quest helper exist on all of the machines.

We will continue to visit this topic to try to find a good solution for our guests.
