TOPIC: UPDATED! More Info on 4-Year Patron Token - Get Your Name on a Token!

Manimal wrote: I'm all in favor of letting people label their token as soulforged. But would someone who wants that option explain to me the upside? If you can have your name on the token and your own unique mark, why limit it to being soulforged (I'm talking about actual soulforging as opposed to simply changing the wording on the token)?

I'm bummed mostly because I thought it was a cool idea to have a tattoo token that was permanently forged to me. Now that the rules have changed, it's all upside - can have my token and sell it, too.

I just don't care for the "crafted by" wording. Sounds way less cool then a token that is "soulforged" to me.

In any case, I think it would be cool to just have the line with your name in it, or allow the upper line to be customizable as well.

Very cool change!

If I could offer a suggestion: "Forged by" just sounds cooler than "Crafted by", at least to my ear

Since it's a tattoo, maybe it should be "Inked By".

"Inked for" maybe, but who inks their own tattoos?

Personally I loved it when it was soulforged. Not a huge fan of the change.

Before it was something neat that people could make that was theirs and theirs alone. Now it's just like any other token. In my mind it just went down quite a few notches.

I like the "Inked For" or "Created For"

OK, changing my answer, "Inked for" is a winner in my book

If the mark and name are already customized, maybe just let the "Forged For:", "Crafted by:", "Inked on:", "Summoned from the darkness by:" be another line of custom text? (Ok maybe a length restriction)

I'm thinking mine would say:
"Ordered for Chaos"

A Token with your personal name on it and a custom image won't be just like any other Token. It will truly be a one of a kind Token so I don't understand why this wouldn't feel like yours and yours alone.

But maybe TD will allow people to customize it more. Yours could say Soulforged, someone else's could say Crafted By. I personally like Created For since TD is the one picking the image and creating the Token, and they are doing it for me. So Created For would be my choice.

The main downside I see with more customization of the token is that it can introduce more risk of errors. Right now the only thing that would be changing on each token is the name and the mark. If more text changes on each token, that's a greater chance for something to go wrong.

Morons. Absolute morons. That's who.
