Formerly know as "Improving "My Level"- some suggestions."
In light of recent updates, I believe this needs updating : D
All that is Dark Red is new. Enjoy! Or die tryin'

For once, I'll try not to scare away people with high and mighty Walls of Text and/or rather numerous Ravenous Numbers.
Suppression/"My Level".
Wonderful feature. But I think it could use some small improvements:
Wonderful feature. But I think it could use some small improvements:
-"+/-" button for fine adjustments, for when you just can't seem to get that "5.4" right.
Needing that .4 isn't a common occurence, the new buttons that alter your CL in full steps make perfect sense for that quick adjust to the area's/event's level. The ability to enter the exact CL covers the occasional stingy needs faster than these fine adjustment buttons would have. Go Devs!
-Custom Quick Level Change Buttons: for those places you visit often. (Greyed out if above your current level to avoid having people returning to their full power out of the Null.) (Think avatar outfits: you press button > you are Suppressed to that level you saved up earlier. If possible.)
I'd still like this, but all the other changes makes this really superflous.
-"You must be in the Null Chamber to return to your normal level.": or an equivalent message popping up in that familiar Red Text when a player tries to change to an higher level.
I love Red Obnoxious Text D: ... but the latest Level panel feedsback this important information in a better way. Finally. Love Devs!
-Auto-Supression: optional function that, if possible (only going down that is), adjusts your CL to a level appropriate for the Area you've just entered (as close as you can be to the average CL for the area) and/or makes it equal/as close to the CL of the leader of the crew you've just joined. Buffs are terminated each time this occurs. An "Easy/Normal/Hard" version could be unlocked upon defeating the EB. (This needs some work. Any suggestions?)
Shaky then, shaky still. They're able to adjust the Buffs now. Largely falls in overkill too, excepted that "New Game Plus" aspect. Just an idea ; D

Ugly Monochrome Visual Aid:
The latest iteration of the in-game panel could use some brush up.
The UI looks a tad odd, but it bloody works. So.
"My level" was a weird name.

Other people said things of interest:

- Giving players an "auto-suppress" option that would automatically suppress them down the max CL for an instance only when they enter. When the player leaves the instance (whether through a portal or death) they get immediately unsuppressed to their full CL. What can I say? They even adjust the freakin' buffs. Not an option, thought, but an option it needs not be. Bravo! Devs!
Shortcuts for a +/- function that would adjust your CL up or down by 0.1 when a shortcut is pressed. Allow us to hold down the shortcut for moving the slider instead of having to repeatedly press the shortcut button.
Lobo clearly works for them D: The buttons don't scroll when you hold them down, but they don't need to: it'll take a while before clicking becomes too slow. Sadly. Small text field where I can manually type in the desired CL and hit the enter key for the effect to take place.
No? Really? You still need to click "confirm", thought.

SO, like the new Level panel?
Comments? Critics? Suggestions? Yes? No? Maybe? I don't know...
Were any of you confused, and/or scared, and/or utterly terrified by any part of this post? D: : D
EDIT: added some stuff for hopefully improved clarity.
RE-EDIT: quotes and some clean up.
RERE-EDIT: improved look.
RERERE-EDIT: in light of recent changes, BACK!
