Some QoL improvements I'd like to see implemented...

As the title says, below are some QoL improvements I'd like to see implemented:
1. Allow us to place a stack of items up for auction, while specifying a different per-piece price and per-stack price.
2. Disable mounts in certain areas - like up on the Auction Kiosk or in the area immediately around mailboxes, (put in a short timer of like 10 seconds, so people just passing by won't get dismounted).
3. Place some campfires down in the main area of PE.
4. Note the gender of humanoid companions, in their description.
5. Provide a way of transferring account-bound items; This could be implemented as a small account bank or via some sort of player housing, (with a similar account storage area).
6. Implement a limiter on sound effects - specifically for sounds and effects certain mounts make when you summon/unsummon them or when tapping/holding the space bar.
7. Allow us to dye our companions and mounts.
8. Allow us to combine stacks of bound and unbound items - just have a popup that warns that doing so will make all items in the stack bound to you.
9. Give all melee companions increased threat generation, or add threat increasing and threat reducing runes - there's almost no reason to take a striker companion on a squishy character as they don't do enough damage to make up for the enemies coming at you instead of them. Also add an "attack/stop attacking" toggle, or an option to assist/attack on own, so we can send them ahead of us.
10. If I begin using a power, and get interrupted, that power should not go on cooldown - they should only do so if actually used.
11. Fix Tiefling tails while on mounts.
12. Fix Rogue masks, (they clip particularly badly with Half-Orcs), or allow us to choose to only display the hood part w/o the mask, if the headwear has both pieces.
13. Allow us to buy basic profession resources and assets via the Gateway. While you're at it remove the 'Beta' tags from the Gateway.
14. Make official, Neverwinter-only, trade and LFG channels.
If you have any opinions or additions, feel free to add them!

Yes, yes they do.
Number 2 is in place by the Astral diamond vendor, though there is no timer as it will boot you right off your horse if you try to cut through her section on the map.
Every in-game AH should have this feature imo.
YES!
I expect clipping in certain older MMOs (WoW) but not something this new... I have a half-orc rogue so this is really irksome.
Just made a thread about how lackluster the Neverember Guard is despite costing Zen... he creates less threat than the COMMON tank companion. Absurd.
I am shocked that there weren't LFG or Trade chats already implemented... seems like a fairly basic thing to have in an MMO.

Love this idea, even a single building marked as an apartment building that everyone used the same door on would be nice. It would be even better too if it showed on the map so you could go there to access your 'banked' items instead of having to crash to PE, errrr i mean go to PE.
Also, please, please when we get a companion why not let us pick the race and gender??
Yes!
This would actually be nice for Guardians as well, perhaps Defense + Threat Generation or some such thing.
This i have to disagree with. I think powers that are interrupted should go on cooldown. This is the best way to keep players from spamming powers other than increasing cooldowns and/or making abilities share more cooldowns. It makes casting abilities more strategic than just hitting the button when the cooldown is up.
Or even a general store in each zone. Take one of the houses that you can't enter and just give the door the shiny sparkles.
Ug please yes, the chat spam in PE is unbearable.
They are not official channels, and they are cross-game. I do not want to see Champions or Star Trek Online items being sold in the same channel. I also don't want to see items being sold on shards I cannot get into. Why don't you think for a second before accusing others of posting "false info".

No one uses them because very few know of them.
What false info the OP asked for Official trade and lfg channels those do not exist.
If they did it would cut down on the issues in zone and allow for factual reporting of the spam.
But cryptic took the easy lazy way out in creating channels and put it on the players to do so.
How is he spreading false info? Unless you believe there is absolutely no difference between "official" channels and player made channels listed in a wiki. Your tone alone, seems to indicate otherwise.
I know they already have this implemented around Rhix so it should not be hard to do in other areas.
D&D Home Page - What Class Are You? - Build A Character - D&D Compendium
But I wouldn't want it to knock people off their mounts if this were to be added to more heavily trafficked areas, like near the Postal Courier by the Auction House. At least giving people enough time to ride past would be nice.
Thanks for all the feedback & keep it coming!

Abolish the seal system. It can't be more worthless. There is no disagreement because it is the truth
I would have to disagree with this part - it provides an alternate, more predictable way of acquiring better gear. I just think what gear is offered should be revamped and adjusted. In lower levels, yeah, the seal items are kinda pointless.

Worse than that, not only are they cross-shard and cross game but many of them are now full of spambots...

Great idea - even just a little icon or 'tic' next to characters with completed tasks and another for characters with inactive profession slots.

Another excellent suggestion; Perhaps have a dropdown with different sort options.
Reading some other threads, I though of another great idea:
In the auction house, show the last 3 sale prices of an item we've selected.

Ex: A CW would have one encounter setup for CC and another for DPS.
To restrict this, they'd have two options:
1.) All encounter powers must be off of cooldown to switch and all encounter powers go on cooldown when you switch. This may be used during battle, though.
2.) You may only switch when out of battle.
So like an alternate preset hotbar? Sounds good to me. It'd have to dispell any persistent buffs granted by powers as well - like if you had shield on as a CW.
