This is just a small thing, but I think the default entity to post as, in guestbooks on one's own character profiles, should be the character whose guestbook it is.., not the player account as it currently seems to be. Like, you could still change it to who/whatever, but the default would be that character, not yourself. If not always, then maybe at least for anonymous characters? I live in constant fear (exaggerating) that I will accidentally post as myself when replying to a guestbook comment rather than doing so as the character. I know there's the option to edit the comment after posting, so this isn't really a huge deal... Still, if it's doable, I think it would be nice to make this change

I don't think the guestbooks were ever meant to be an IC space; that's just how a notable chunk of the community started using them.

I've seen some cases that even treat it like it's characters texting back and forth to each other.
