Just a quick thing I am noticing a lot playing hard mode now. I always got many invites in towns as a monk, but there's an increasing need now for me to whisper back to people inviting me to parties because I am seeking hard mode and they are inviting me into normal mode. Most of the time I know unsoliticited invites are for normal mode, but occasionally I wish to ask the inviter or simply tell them "Thank you, but..."

Problem is, when you go to whipser someone back, usually their name is cut off in the party window and made worse by how hard it is to spell someone's name you dont know sometimes, especially with added spaces and i's etc. You have to rollover the name in the Party Window, go back and type a few letters go back to rollover and see what the end of the name is, see if you spelled it right.

So until we get some of the hard mode support options (some way to know visibly who in town is set to hard mode, some way to know if you are inviting someone to a party set to a different mode then you, some way to know you are being invited to a party set to a different mode, etc), I wish the inviter's name would show up in the Whisper contextual menu. Helpful for any mode of play to quickly converse with someone who is inviting you to a party.

there is a shortcut for this, select the leaders name in the party menu and press erm, shift+enter or ctrl+enter, can't really remember the combination, but it is there.

Really? Not for the leader in your party, but for the leader of the party in a party you are invited to but have not yet accepted?

Thanks! That's great if its there. Just last night had a number of invites I felt the need to reply to and was doing the rollover "how was that spelled again?" thing lol. I'll tinker around and see if something works.
