I'd like to suggest changes to personal icons for a more universal and improved understanding of what everything means.
Trial Players- I would like to suggest a way to differentiate them from paid subscriptions. Perhaps a blue/white orb. A small diamond, or something simple in design that does not take away from the overall icon aesthetic.
When people will be running around at lv50 and still on trial, it would be handy before sending tells or FC invite.
Maybe a differently colored sprout icon that cannot be removed the way turning it off manually works. And if someone disagrees with the inability to remove the icon, you can turn off your name in settings anyway which hides it for yourself but is visible to other players. If the icon annoys the person, they still have a way to not see it.
Mentors- Crown to watering can or a fully bloomed flower to represent their achievements from sprouts and separate from Returning Player status which follows the sprout motif.
Player Assistance- This is something for those who are not mentors, but still want to show they are available to help others. I'm more than open to suggestions for this one. This personal status icon would represent being open to helping new players with questions or needing assistance.
Perhaps a handshake? Or a scroll tied with red ribbon?
