The idea here is to allow players with tickets to title their ticket just like it is a mount.
I think this will give a lot of help to people whose PCs have multiple stable tickets, each of which is good for different mounts. The ticket would have to be re-titled every time the mount is rented, though.
It could also be applied to any service that involves tickets, like tailoring.
Quote>get ticket bag
You get your ticket from your bag.
>offer ticket
The stablemaster takes your ticket and leads an erdlu out of the stables.
>think Bah, this isn't what I wanted.
You think:
"Bah, this isn't what I wanted."
> rent erdlu
The stablemaster takes your erdlu.
>title ticket erdlu
You have titled a ticket erdlu.
>put erdlu bag
You put your ticket in a bag.
>get inix bag
You get your ticket from a bag.
>offer inix
The stablemaster takes your ticket and leads out an inix from the stables.
I think mount tickets should have a little embossed image of the animal on it. Otherwise, how does the stablemaster know what to do with the ticket that you hand him when you yourself don't know which ticket it is?

That would be nice too. Actually, I asked myself that question when thinking up this here idea.
edit to add:
Some items currently have a thing that can be looked at on them.
> look image ticket
would be nifty.
I like it. Then a ranger can have his favourite rainbow-inix, and not have to try his 5 different tickets to find it.
*stamp of approval*
To the ticket with a picture of the description of the mount on it.
For the love of Muk/Tek, please yes!! PLEASE?
I dig this idea.
Careful, kids. That's toeing the 'literacy' line.
Just a thought. Maybe it's supposed to be difficult for us uneducated commoners.

Maybe 'title' is, but a picture of the mount? Is a stablemaster supposed to be playing lottery with the tickets he gives and takes?
There'd have to be some way ICly the stablemaster figures out just what the hell to do with a ticket, and being as several stablemasters are HG, it shouldn't be something amazingly complex - commoners should have no problem with it, right? If X meant kank and O meant inix and / meant beetle (and etc.) I can see the argument for literacy having more relevance, but if it's just crude representations of an animal on it, maybe not so much.
Personally, I think a title should be permanent and stick to a mount unless manually retitled.
