Here is what was written on change suggestions in the other post.
1). Be able to get a drop down window on an adventure and pick exactly what type of adventure that you want. The 30 sec timmer thing sucks.
2). In the LFG Window, you should be able to highlight up to a certain amount of players (say 5 or 6?) and give a mass tell. The reason I say this is when you are asking people to join your group, you usually have to give multiple people tells. This will make it easier and quicker for the player.
3). Some type of duck commant while on a horse. Maybe Kneel?
4). Make more spell/song slots available. Give it pages, the 1st page is 10 spells/songs the 2nd page has the same.
5). a quick weapon change button.
6). Overhaul or replace the outdated graphics engine.
7). I would really like something where I can see who is lfa/g in my guild. Just a guild lfg/a screen.
8) . Flagging Filter to show who is flagged for what while lfg
9). They could have spell casting mastery for hybrids
10). I'd like to see a big old loot all button on your corpse.

This is already essentially in game, although it's not a dedicated guild LFG screen. Click the "Additional Filters" button on the LFG window. You can set filters on your ignore list, friends list, you can exclude guilds, and you can only include certain guilds.

This would make casters to strong, they limit the spells to limit that amount of power we have.
6). Overhaul or replace the outdated graphics engine.
Would take an entire new expantion such as luclin... and its more worth it to make a new game a.k.a. EQ2
7). I would really like something where I can see who is lfa/g in my guild. Just a guild lfg/a screen.
Not even 80% sure on this But I thought their was a option in the LFG section to search by guilds... maybe its just to ignore certain guilds tho...
8) . Flagging Filter to show who is flagged for what while lfg
Thats what the Comment section should be used for.
10). I'd like to see a big old loot all button on your corpse.
Would make looting corpse way to fast, and making it alot easyer to battle res... I see this as to strong and powerfull also

"Overhaul or replace the outdated graphics engine...."
According to Computer Games Magazine, the next expansion of Everquest will include a new graphics engine named Tunare which will update all of the graphics in the game. The article included a before and after look at the tree city of Kelethin which showed a significant difference in detail.

"I'd like to see a big old loot all button on your corpse...."
Was implemented from what i understood but left for to big of openings in duping.
"They could have spell casting mastery for hybrids..."
Alan and other dev's commented on this. Hybrids are half casters and half meele. So they should and will NOT get the best of both worlds. IE you will not see a pop crit aa ability nor SCM. However something for less fizzles would be nice.
"Some type of duck commant while on a horse. Maybe Kneel?..."
Alan has seen this brought to attention MANY times. Each time he brings up that the whole reason you can't do so on a horse is not because they havent tried to program it but because its the (-) you get with the (+) of being able to med while standing and search through your book while standing.
"I would really like something where I can see who is lfa/g in my guild. Just a guild lfg/a screen..."
It would be nice to put it in the guild managment tool. Whole sepperate columb for LFG and such. It wouldnt take much programming at all ;p.

A new graphics engine was announced in at the Chicago Fanfaire (august/september, forgot when exactly)
Based on the panel discussion, the new engine doesn't offer much in terms of new flashy features over the existing engine, but should help slower machines out a lot more by offloading more graphics tasks to the video cards instead of the CPU.
Thought I heard new 'low poly' PC models announced somewhere too...
