Sorry, think I expressed the question poorly.

Is it possible to make a game option that simply exports basic player stats/items to the Android's clipboard?
No auto-conversion to the forums here, just a simple text file output--which players could then paste into any document or spreadsheet or such.

CUCHULAINN3 - Nice..look forward to checking those docs out!

Well, yes, that is possible. But we have very limited resources so is that where you really want us to spend time?

Totally fair question. Guess could depend on how easy~difficult/time-consuming to implement an export feature.

If pretty quick & easy, then might be worthwhile for the cumulative time-saving for players and even helpful to providing support here by moderators & others. If someone has a question/issue, can tell them to simply export their player stat/item file and paste into a comment, which could then provide quick & accurate info for troubleshooting & for general game-play assistance.

It's 100% up to you all doing the heavy (code) lifting! It's easy for most of us to toss out a 1,000 ideas and not have to do the hard implementation work.

I think the main problem is to define the contents of such a signature that everyone would like.
Some players would have their favourite items listed, or some even their quests. Some others would like to show every hero they ever had.
After all I think it best that players will have to do it themselves manually and creatively.

Good points, but would you make a distinction between some form of auto-signature (output) vs simply an option to output player stats to their phone's clipboard (for their own ref or to help semi-manually fill their signature)?

Back in the past, someone created a high score list. That was based on signatures, so the format was critical. It's long dead though, so a signature now could be anything.
