Very neat idea. Though wiping the hate list will get it turned down. I can
see a LOT of uses for this song even without the hate list wipe. What would
be even more cool is if they let it summon all party members regardless of
zone. ;)
Interesting thought eh? ;)
Just my .02 cents. After all we're talking over 50
