What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?


It might seem remarkably petty but we've always thought it was silly to have "Personal History" in the Mental Tab of the character template when there is a Personal Tab that seems like it would be more intuitive.
Our suggestion is therefor to move the "Personal History" Section to the Personal Tab!
Again... remarkably petty and NOT an important, deal breaking scenario... just always wanted to bring it up!  

How does this feature request address the current situation?


We feel like moving the Personal History field to the Personal tab in the character creation template and in the final version of character articles would make things a bit more organized and intuitive.
Dunno if this has already been recommended but it's our only suggestion and we're stickin to it!  

What are other uses for this feature request?


No other uses.
Just thought it would be a good idea at some point. Could be wrong!   Thanks very much for your patience! ^^

The Team's Response

This suggestion did not receive the required support from the community.   Initially my thoughts were that this would be a good move, after reading through out internal notes I realised that we had a good reason to put it where it is.   Personal History is part of the mental development of a character, it talks about the formative experiences they had that changed and evolved them mentally. The Personal tab is about the CURRENT state of the personality of that individual. not their connections and development.   This is the reason that Personal History should remain as is.
