I'm not about to suggest a new system, but you haven't either. You're suggesting improvements to the old system. While these are all positive changes, the system itself is still bad. The positives you're suggesting still result in a net negative. If you're hoping to produce something worthwhile, you'd be better off scrapping the old system.

The flip side of the coin is that, with the enormous amount of work you guys have put into the old system, it's pretty unrealistic to ask you guys to start back at square one. With that in mind, these are pretty acceptable improvements. Now get back to work on the important stuff, like the Shaman revamp.
