- Reassigning loot, and marking loot as disenchanted/vault, will update the history entries also. - Tooltip help on dropdown menus appears at mouse now, instead of depending on Blizzard's "Beginner Tooltips" setting. - Forum BBcode output includes an option for MMO-Champion/Wowstead formatting. - Smarter cleanup functions for expiring caches. - Properly prefer locally-generated loot events, even when other users can see and rebroadcast the events back to you faster than you see them.
