The most important discussion!! EVER

See, I like the overly clever reference to a smaller version of a particular style of dishware. Oh well...

Definitely not going with lowercase letters at the beginning of the name. *cringe*.. and anything that refers to me/my name, 'sexy', 'pretty', 'cool', 'elite', 'pwn' are out.

Ugh, late for work... bye!

Maybe tPlates to make it shorter.

or dtPlates for dantiger.

And FS is a much better acronym compared to TP. Not that I don't enjoy tp as much as the next person...

Idk, 'flying saucers' doesn't sound anything like a nameplate addon :P.

Though, now, I can say for sure that I won't be changing it. Your opinion counts quite a bit, you might have noticed ;-)

1. The coloring is temporary. I haven't gotten around to coding anything else, yet.

2. The cast bar can be disabled in Blizz's interface panel: Interface Options > Combat > Cast Bar > On Nameplates
