Now that Guild Cape and Head Gear toggle has been implemented, isn't it good if we have Pet toggle too?

Now imagine ascalon w/ lots of pets wandering around having the same name "Ghostly Hero".

And wouldn't it be good if the pet will have additional animation like sitting while the character is afk, scratching themselves, etc...

Like the general idea of pet emotes, in and outside of town. None the less while pets in town would be fun there have to be some minor changes to avoid a mass number of ghostly hero's walking about:

1. Allow pets to be shown in town (Toggleable maybe?) but don't show their names when you lightlght over them.

2. Makes them unselectable by other players

3. Allow people to walk through them in towns.

The biggest problem with be that towns already get frame loss with loads of players, adding pets into the mix could be annoying.

Can I command my pet to pee on obnoxious naked dancing warriors?

Nah, this would probably cause the framerate to take an even bigger hit in towns. I'd rather not see more lag than I already see in towns and outposts.

Feh, there's enough congestion in towns as it is. No thanks.
