Well, I just thought, since Matt and Flash are usually consumed in server issues and coding, and some database issues only they can deal with, what if mods got some xtra database access, to be able to do things such as change ability names for reworks?

Reworks don't happen all that often, so to be honest it might be more work to let them allow us to have more access than for them to just take care of it themselves :P

That is currently impossible. Renaming or adding new things to the system has a number of "ripple" effects across the site that need to be dealt with in the code/server. Unfortunately for the foreseeable future I will have to take care of those specific tasks myself.

I am aware of the Alistair passive name change, will try to do that today. If there is anything else missing that can't be done by the Mods or Vets, the best thing to do is post it in the support forum instead of the database forum. I monitor the support forum frequently but don't always have time to watch the database forum.

Alternatively you can PM me or get one of the Mods to PM me, or use the feedback page to send me an email.

Scroll to the bottom of any page and there is a "Contact Us" link. It's a little hard to spot, but we generally prefer people use the forums instead of email to get in touch with us as often times others can help them before we even see the post :)

I have an idea...
Report function on the champion and skills pages.

Not merging it with the current one but expaning it to 2nd one, accesable by Veterans.

I bet this would be WAY better and efficient tool for updates and reports than making threads and so on on the forums.

The report system for mods is one of the best things that Matt/FlashJ came up with lately so maybe lets kick it in for vets in terms of database edition?

^That idea deserved a rep. The report system is highly efficient, so maintaining the database in a similar fashion would be the best option by far.

Though it would be another thing to add to the to-do list ;)
