Well i was wondering you now how we have a dot by our names when you open a profile and it is either green or red? Well i was wondering if we could make those dots by your friends name on the friends list. This way it could atomaticly help us now if our friends are online or not instead of going to there profile to check. I think that this is a goodd idea but at the same time not a lot of people like my ideas so what do you guys think?
yeah, that's be kinda cool, otherwise you wait and wait for forever, and then no replies come back from your friends, and you can't even tell if they are on or not. So it would be cool to have a little icon next to their name, in your friend list, that says that they are logged on
Yeah, all the blue ones would be online, the red ones offline, and in orange/yellow if they are in the forums, maybe on purple-blue posting in your profile.
Err... you're talking about the profiles, right? Because it is green if they are online, and if the user is offline, it doesn't even show the name, not by red colors. My idea goes with the activity in the forums, by showing a color besides what's already there.

I like your i dea a lot but what if you make green online red ofline yellow/ornage forums and you don't really need the one that they are posting on your profile?
and if the user is offline, it doesn't even show the name
No bad idea what if you want to say something to your friend it is still usefull to have them on your friends list.
This is actually something that the other administrators and I have discussed, and that they decided against. Since the profile pages are already pretty slow to load, they are wary about adding more information to the pages. The more information a page has to pull, the slower it will be. And with constantly updating information like that, I am sure we would see an effect. Perhaps this might be feasible if we expand the servers and get the site running faster. But for now, it is not something that they will implement.
yea i could be handy. I dont go to my friends list and go to their profile to see if they are online. i go to the community page and i can see my friends online from there. But yes this would be more handy! Thumbs uP!
