    I know this will be hard on Max, but it's just a suggestion. :wacko: Why don't you try and make a Buddy List? So you can check it to see who's on. And, also, you can customize on who to have a pop-up notification when they login too! It would be VERY useful! B)

        Implementing a buddly list is very easy to do because it is built straight into the server's functionality. For version 1.0 we will almost surely have this feature.

            I think it's so Ragaknight can stalk people when they're online.

            Both a good and a bad, I guess.

              What about my idea of a full member list? That way if you're friends aren't on, you can still see if there's anybody to talk to ;).

                  Cool, a Buddy List for V.1
                  Less than 5 words is spam. :blink: darn...(kidding)
                  Yay, a buddy list, stalking??? Um...no. *sweatdrop*

                    ...That's not funny. :ph34r:
                    1. I'm not a stalker.
                    2. Also, in order to have add a buddy, the other person must ACCEPT. (This could prevent some things, like stalking for instance.)

                      I think a budy list would be great very convenient for when some one u know gets on.

                        no no no. You don't understand. It would launch a list of people online, and you wouldn't be able to whisper to them unless you both add eachother to your buddy lists. That way you know who's online without having to add every second person you see to your buddy list.

                          How can you add eachother when its a full members list??

                            You make the buddy list and members list different things.
                            Maybe intead of having a whole online list, there could just be something on the interface that says how many people are online, and you can hunt them down yourself.

                            My general idea was that you have a member list that has everyone online at that time (launches in a new window, maybe), but you can't message anyone or see where they are. Those features are limited to people on your buddy list. And when a buddy comes online, you get a notification.

                            It might be a bit pointless, but you need something to tell you if there are people online who aren't on your buddy list. Maybe just a number somewhere on the interface would be enough. ("20 people online" up in the top right or something similar.)

                              Cloud, how about you stop double posting? Next time you double post you will recieve your first of three warnings. Please read the freaking FAQ on the website before you say something that has been discussed OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

                                      tut.

                                      1. double posting (posting one or more times in a row, without any replies between) is spam. If you have something to add after you've posted, click the 'edit' button on your previous post.

                                      2. This is not the topic to ask about adding an avatar. This topic and forum are for suggestions for GSW.
                                      To get an avatar, go to "my controls" at the top of the page, then go to avatar settings, and choose/link to/upload an image for your avatar.

                                      3. This topic is about having a buddy list. There are other topics concerning your suggestion. Anyway, there are no plans currently for there to be battles. It may be added some time after the release of v1, since many of us would love to see that ^_^.

                                        Has this suddenly turned into the Warning Topic? This is going off-topic, and hasnt this been disscussed far enough? It seems that were all repeating the same sort of idea's all over again, just in a different person's eyes.
                                        Too much disucssion, that has been repeated, and too much going off-topic. I have a feeling this going to be closed sooner of later. But I'm just giving a though about it.
                                        And a Buddy List? That would be nice, like I said before, but that might be too much in asking, isnt it...

                                          Guys, read the GSW site.

                                          And any suggestions about GSW should be in the GSW forums.
