Does the ACCELERATOR work?

[Taem]

If one is so inclined the whole game of Diablo 2 can be considered "tedious".  Gems and runes were kept white to reward those players who played with the most attention to detail.  I'm getting the impression that there are folks who wish to receive all the rewards of the game without dispensing any effort!

From reading this forum, it should be clear to most people that the people who enjoy D2 the most are those who reveal in the details of the games.  It would also appear that they are the ones who are most successful, i.e., they level fastest, know how to acquire the "best" items, die the least, etc. etc.

Then why color uniques gold, sets green, rares yellow, crafts orange, and magical items blue? Why not make anything with a magical aura BLUE and make it so the player has to actually pick up the item and identify it to know what it is (like in Dungeons and Dragons... and most RPG's) ? Because blizzard color cordinated their items, it seems only logical that Runes should be a different color as should Charms and maybe even gems.

Seems to that Blizzard was too lazy to code it in, not as you put it, the player is too lazy to search for the items. Other wise, why the complex color code as it is now? Makes no sense to have so many colored items but not charms, runes, or gems. At the very least, charms should be purple and runes green.
