Or at least a cross-server friendlist with the ability to whisper.
My friends just started playing WoW this weekend – and unfortionally on a different server than me. They’ve got lowbies on my home server, I’ve got one on theirs and if we want to play together we just do. No problem, right?
But I want to chat with them while I on my main! Alt-tabbing out of WoW to type in AIM is annoying and often enough deadly, and my current connection would break down under ventrilo.
And while we are at “Wünsch dir was”, I also want a mentor system: The ability to temporary downgrade a character while grouping/mentoring a bunch of lowbies. Seriously, I want to take my main! That’s more fun than having to make yet another alt in order to join friends.
I’m not often complaining about WoW, it’s currently my favourite game, but Blizzard’s dropped the ball here. Mentoring is implementable, see City of Heros; Blizzard already can downgrade gear according to level, see heirlooms; we already can whisper and communicate cross-server, see the dungeon finder; cross-server ignore WORKS – So why we don’t we have neither a cross-server friendlists nor a mentoring system?
Blizzard, get cracking.

Quick! Make them server transfer before they get too committed ;)
Hahahah. I’d love too.
But we’re German, and my main’s on English PVP server – A Brit has dragged me into WoW, the pox on him. My friends speak and read English well enough, but they’re just not comfortable with it in a game setting. And they hate the concept of World PvP, so they picked a German RP server.
Honestly, I can understand them.
