Be nice if there was a "*" , bold or underline etc... of officers/commander online status.

I can predict what wolf will be saying too this... :D


And I would like to say "Can't we let this one topic slide?"

I'm tired of seeing people either have their posts locked for posting an old idea, or get flamed for bumping the old one!


Anyway, my answer is simple... "YES."

That and your commander, and maybe any officers of your commander. I mean, come on people! I know that it isn't that hard!

I love the idea. I hate having to guess and wait, especially with my officer in Germany. It gets really irritating.

I know, it's like my graveyard sugestion for the forum. It had only one vote against it and 7 or 8 for it, but it was stopped straight away...

Common Suggestions - No. 12

I've started to add links to the items in the Common Suggestions list. This one seems as good as any to use for Online/Offline indication.

Pretty much you can know... What would bothers people so much they'll set up an account to post it, or what seems so cool or easy that it can't hurt?

All of those posts fit that criteria. Personally, I just use the search button (unless I think its reeeaaally unusual... wolf don't kill me! :D ).

Since I haven't posted in any of the other online/offline indication suggestions, I'll post in this one.

There was this little invention called messenger service. MSN has a great one, AOL's is ok, and Yahoo at least gets the job done. Why put something extra into the game coding when an officer or commander or someone can contact you using a messenger service? More coding, means more stuff that can go wrong, which means more "great game outages," which means less time to play.

This is simple...

Disable logins for like five minutes while you make an expiration time to sessions stored in the database, and have it coincide with the expiration of the sessions on our computers. Then the game can go back up as the admin adds more things like killing the session from the server when you log off, and adding in the auto-rank update script something to delete expired sessions...

Then just have to change the header or footer to include updating the expiration time of your session (on the database) so that it doesn't die after a straight half-hour of playing.

Finally you add the actual script that checks if your co/officers are online!
