[MERGED] Character Alerts
C R A F T
I've been doing more auctioning lately and am finding out how frustrating it is to meet up.
I have another suggestion; in the Friends tab where you can "Whisper XXX", "Ignore XXX", or "Delete XXX from Friends list", why not add "Alert me when Character XXX logs in"?

Sometimes I just want a quick H/h session without people knowing I logged in (other times I log in just to chat)
Unless we get a "Log-in as offline" option then I'm going to have to /notsign
(move to ideas forum would probably be good)

I think this should instead be a toggled option. Many other games automatically notify the player when someone on their friend list logs in; why doesn't Guild Wars?

I would love that option! Especially if it can be toggled on or off. I have told myself that I wish there was such a thing.

Love the idea, tis rather annoying clicking back and forth on the friends list just to see if someone has come online.
Konig Des Todes
A must for toggle or able to log on as offline.
Don't add one or both of those /notsigned

i think this would be very nice, ive been wanting it for a long time, however with one change: both the players have to have each other on thier freinds lists. There is always that annoying guy that pesters you with questions and if he knows your online you are in hell for longer than when he decides to look on his freinds list :P

*p.s. does any of this stuff we want and ask for on guru actually GET INTO the game?

/signed. This is a very good idea.

eh as long as there is a sign in as offline then i guess it would be ok.
i dont have any problem just hitting N to bring up friends every now and then

Sounds like an excellent idea. I've had times where I PM a friend "when did you log on" and the response is something like "3 hours ago"

No! sometimes I put my status to offline just after i log in to avoid being whispered too much when I come online.

I'll agree if they put in a "sign in as offline" feature. A lot of times I'm cranky and don't want to talk to people.

There are a couple of people who play and love to stalk me (in-game and out-of-game) and while the ignore list is there for a reason, I can't keep them there due to its small size. So the last thing I need is something that will allow them to be told when I'm online.

Okay, another idea. You know how you got 2 seperate sections for Offline/Online friends? Well, I think it would be nice to have an option (yes, you can toggle it on and off), to where a message would pop up. Something like this.
X Dip Doggy X (Elite XexX) has logged in.
X Dip Doggy X (Elite XexX) has logged off.
X Dip Doggy X (Elite XexX) has logged in.
X Dip Doggy X (Elite XexX) has logged off.

Heh, that's for character alert, at which point you would have to type in something, I think.
Much easier for just to do it for your friends -_-

I'd sign it, as long as it's a toggle option. I'd also like to see this for Guild Rosters.
<Player> [<your guild>] has logged on.
<Player> [<your guild>] has logged off.
<Player> [<your guild>] has set their status to <status here>.
And for friends, just take out the tag.
However, it MUST be a TOGGLE option.
<Player> [<your guild>] has logged on.
<Player> [<your guild>] has logged off.
<Player> [<your guild>] has set their status to <status here>.

Heh, I said it would be toggable.

To that, I would add the suggestion that the Friends Online/Offline can be right-clicked and toggled to set the whole of that list to notification or not.
Either way, there really is another thread on this idea.

Well, if you set your status to offline, wouldn't this addition just go to the logged off message?

'sign in as 'offline'' or something...?
good idea though

Yet another feature that WoW has that GW would have a great benefit from. They also allowed you to get notifications in the chat log when a guild member signed on/off. Plus you could toggle these options!

Lord, i WISH. im a chatty person ingame, and it bugs me to have to open my friends list every time i want to check if someones online to talk to. (i find i get bored out of my mind if im not chatting with someone while farming/cartograpizing/capping.)
its simple. a little message in the chat log when someone logs on.
"Such And Such" Has Logged On. (and by clicking their name it opens their name in whisper.

/signed... if there is a downside, i am unaware of it. Basically, if you dont like it, then you can turn it off. How can you say, "not signed" to a suggestion like that?

If i'm looking for a mate to come on asap, i'd like to know when they do come on.
And to anyone saying "Omgz it r annoyinz /nonsigned lolol!11!!1" it should be able to be turned off, so for people who like it can turn it on, and people who hate it can turn it off!

To be honest theres better things to do with the friends list than this
tehshadowninjar
And I've yet to see YOU come up with a suggestion. Kkthxbai.

Sometimes you just want to log in, see who's on and log off. I don't need any my friends mad at me cause I didn't stay on, and I definitely don't need people that don't like me monitoring my comings and goings.
And yeah, I use the friends list to keep track of at least one player that I promised I will never group with again.

omfg i really hopes this happen it will make things so much easier.
the friends list should also be like the guild roster where it shows you the last time somebody logged in.

Always wondered why GW doesn't tell you when friends come on. Also, in general we need more options, like a command to tell you where your friend is at the moment. The friends interface has not been changed at all since Prophecies.

"Ignore Suchandsuch"
"Remove Suchandsuch From My Friends List".
if you dont want them seeing you online, REMOVE THEM. check, cut, print, moving on.

Everybody has a guy that annoys them, that they can't ignore because of some personal relationship that the annoying guy has with one of your real friends.
Now, do you want this person to get an alert every time you log on? I don't.
