A small "correction", there is a limit, change too much will "harm your MF speed". Add extra text to all items? Ever have full screen of drops (P8), and Alt can only display a small part of "small part", even you can "hide" gold ... etc, you cannot get rid of the numbers (to be displayed), and add more text will only make thingy worse.
With a small amount of code editing it is possible to change the string of the number of gold as well. That's how the infamous MH does it, and it would be simple to find the memory address and edit the appropriate DLL to make the change since an older version of the program's source code is freely available. Many other more serious effects can be produced by changing the code, but thankfully it's not as easy to do as a simple TBL edit or excel spreadsheet sheet change.
As I said before, this issue will probably never be agreed on. What can be done, as others have said, is that people who use mods be sure to tell others that they play a mod before they trade with them. Also, it is a good idea to go one step further and tell anyone you plan on trading with that you've traded items acquired by another who used mods. Some people are very picky about such things and may believe that the said items are worthless/tainted due to having been found under the influence of mods, no matter how harmless the mod may have been.
The problem also arises that some mods may be viewed as less harmful than others, so keeping track of what type of mod was used when an item was found would also have to be factored in. This results in items having a much more detailed history that should be kept and is easy to lazily ignore if you don't feel it affects you (or if you don't care about what others believe). As you can see, this is starting to become a little more tedious and complex in order to safely insure that those who use or tolerate mods in the SPF do not interfere with those who don't.
On a less serious side, I like Kremtok's idea, let's give him all our runes so he can color them. That way, if we drop our runes we can see how pretty and easy they are to view on the ground. I don't know if wasting a whole crayon would be worth it though, seeing how they're so rare and expensive. :lol: Maybe a marker or piece of chalk would do instead.
The more important question arises, though. Do we get a refund if Kremtok doesn't stay within the lines of the rune to be colored? It would be a pain to have scribbles outside the rune edges, making any item I put it into look messy. Not to mention the mess that would be all over my character's hands after handling such a sloppily done coloring job.
