[New Account Management Gump:]
The Account Management Gump is a completely new interface that gives players a centralized overview of their game account. It can be opened through the ]Account command, or by clicking the top button on the paperdoll gump(the art for which will be updated in the next file update).

Players can view details such as account age, character slots, current characters and their race/class/level, donation credits, housing information, and more. Players can also change their password and set an e-mail address to assist with account recovery or password resets.

The new gump also includes an expanded set of staff account management tools, allowing staff to quickly search and review accounts, view characters and housing, manage account notes and IP/access information, and modify account settings such as e-mail, passwords, donation credits, access levels, and bans.

This replaces several scattered account-management functions with a single, streamlined interface for both players and staff.
