I dont have this one yet, but I have been reading about it. It is still in its alpha stage, so it is still buggy. Eventualy when it is complete it will allow you to creat your own player made quests. They are working on making player made reputations that increase with quest completion. They have all the same type of quest rewards that the are already in the game, plus a few others cool ones like guild promotions. I may install it on my computers at home and test it out.
Even if you don’t have time to read everything, check the last testimonial. It shows the potential of this mod.
• What is PlayerQuest? PlayerQuest is a simple system for adding/distributing your own quests.
• Will both people need the AddOn? Yes.
• What kind of objectives will be supported? All the ones in the standard game plus these: - PvP Objectives - Duel Objectives - "Talk to Player" objectives - "Survival" Objectives
• Will you be able to interact with players like quest giving NPC's? Yes.
• It doesn't seem that there is a "Talk to Player/NPC" objective available...? This is actually accomplished by what's called "quest chaining". One quest is created with no objectives (or rewards) and is set to turn into "fred", but objective text reading: "Go talk with fred, he can give you information for me". Then that quest is "chained" to another quest that has no objectives, but has rewards with a turn in player of you, and objective text reading: "Return the info to me". there ya go. (This is also the way blizzard does it with standard quests).
• Can I help test? Sure you can. Check out the "Downloads" section and get th most recent build. Report any errors you find to the "AddOn Bug Reports" forum.
• Are Unit/Are names case-sensitive? Yes. This MAY be changed in a future release.

I thought you might like to know that I've been getting my entire guild (slowly) to use PlayerQuest. Every new member is being forced to, at least, since I'm handing out "initiation quests" now. There has been a little grumbling from the bugs that are inevitable, but people are remarkably happy and, overall, *very* impressed so far! We're managing to "work around" a few things and look forward to every new revision--especially for when item quests "complete" properly. It's also nice being able to remind my guildmembers that with every bug we find we're helping to put you one step closer to the "full version". There are at least a handful of us who have started testing out various simple quests on each other every few days.
Being on the Horde side, the most interesting so far actually turned into a mini-raid for the 7 guild members that were there (3 of whom were "intiates" doing the quest "legitimately")...
I set a task to kill Mr. Smite, Captain Greenskin, and "Cookie" on the pirate ship at the end of the Deadmines instance in Westfall. (Added a storyline about trying to ally with the Defias--no dice. And then noticing that--gasp!--they had even converted one of the Horde to their cause! Oh no! )
It was a great quest, even though the level was really low for most and high for one of the initiates, because I find that many of my guild members have never played an Alliance alt. They had never seen the mines, were running around into dead ends while I kept yelling, "No! This way! THIS WAY D*** IT!" It was great! I have never seen an instance like that done so fast; more than one member commented that they felt dizzy when we got back to Brill! It only took 45 minutes from the time we stepped on the Zeppelin outside Undercity!
Besides that... there are a few collection quests that fit the storylines of some of the characters, and we get around the "not completing" right now by assigning a certain number of kills and telling the person in the text to collect "X" items (and then hand them over in the trade window--very trusting, I know). The Defias is my crowning glory, so far... I don't think I'll have another gem like that in a while. (You just had to see it... really... imagine a lvl 55 Tauren shammy, lvl 52 undead rogue, lvl 47 undead priest (me), hacking their way through the Deadmines with three lvl 20's and a lvl 11... from beginning to end in 45 minutes! ...had to res the lvl 11 about ten times!)
