My suggestions are to make comunit more accessible and uncomplicated.

It's a pain to explain new players how to set up irc (as com unit doesnt work for +i channels). A PA tailored IRC would be very handy. This IRC should also be integrated into PA and replace comunit.

The com unit as it is now is cryptic and doesn't work for many cases. As soon as you start playing in an alliance you'll need do undergo the time consuming mIRC setup procedure. At "Horde" it was a pain to explain people why IRC is needed and how they should use it. Any simplified way to give new users a way to connect to the community is by no means complicating the game, just demanding some work from some coding genius
