Is someone up for making a list of new features/things that have been done in the last 5 years? So that we can share this info easily with old characters who are checking out the game again.

Gorboth has a list in one of these posts... might be the Keepers Korner.

I think it would be nice to add some of the more minor things to the list as well that just make gameplay more easy... ie :

Autosaving Racks in Guildhalls
Herbs loading not individually when logging in the game
Armageddon is once in about every 10 days

There is autosaving racks ?
Nice..!!

Noticed the racks in AA changed.
Harder to see than a nice pack when you just do exa rack exa second rack etc.
But can use list weapons, list armours, list helmets etc to get a very usable view.
Also can use the kick racks command.
