The easy fix is for stats to be visible in the lobby... frogboy mentioned he would like to do that so there is a good chance we wont have to worry about that so much,, for now either run windowed all the time or get a second computer (laptop/netbook)

I've posted in another thread with a similar suggestion.  It would be nice if the game used the same window mode as WoW.  Maximised-window mode uses the entire screen realestate, and hitting the window key pops the taskbar up over the game.  It's much faster than alt-tabbing out of the program.

A change like that would make me incredibly happy.  The game also runs better for me in window mode on win7 than it does fullscreen.  Not sure why.
