I cannot see the problem, honestly, Prate. There are rules against that....I think? And I agree with Shenaanigans that you have it up to player discretion. Not like it makes an impact anyway, honestly. You can, of course, mechanically divide it by dividing the description into "general", can be seen at any distance really and "closer inspection" that only pops up when you hold it and inspect it. But I think that would be a bit too much honestly.
Again, it isnt a real problem with any other item, since this is how it works right now. I just want to click accessories like patches and see what patches, pins or other stuff people have on their jackets or so.
To bring up a specific example: I have a character that wears a golden pin tag. The description says "A golden pin tag with the name XYZ neatly engraved on it.". Right now - it serves no purpose. People can clearly see the pin tag and what is engraved on it, yet since they cannot inspect it, it theoretically serves absolutely zero purpose. I hope you understand what I mean and why I want this changed.
