Default Friends/Guildies...where are they?

Don't you hate it when you have to ask your friends/fellow guildies where and what they are doing?. So I would like to see a little information about what your friends/guildies are doing, where they are (town, district, quest, mission, continent or simply afk). Perhaps all this information could be accessible via another window, where all your friends/guildies are listed with the above information. Of course one would have an option to stay "private" if you don't want your location or what ever you're doing discosed.

Maybe this has been suggested before, I tried the search but could not find anything relating to this. I'd appreciate any feedback/comments. Hehe thanks for listening

It's been suggested a number of times. And it's still not a very good idea. It really isn't that hard to ask what people are up to.

Ok, so it has been suggested. I agree that it's not hard to ASK, but the thing is sometimes they are so busy doing things (quest/mission) that they don't/can't answer back, simply because they are pre ocupied or just cant see the message, this little suggestion should solve it. Anyway it's probably been said before too lol, if it has, well then I apologize. But I dont think it's a bad idea at all but I do respect your opinion.

Well, if they're a friend just harass them till they answer :P And if you don't know them then chances are they're one of the 400000000000000000 bad communicators of gw. "Is that a yes" "....." "Well?" "...." "....." "....." "no"

Don't really ever have this problem in our guild. Voice chat is a wonderful thing. No need to type anything and no matter how busy anyone is they can always answer a question or just chat while doing other things.

Hmm it does sound like a good idea. Having yet another window is a no no. I would prefer to put my pointer over them on my friends/guild list and see all the info.

In Everquest 2 there was a location beside people's names in the guild window and the friends window. Unless that person was /anonymous, then it wouldn't say where they were.
I only used that information to sneak up on friends and family.
I once made a new character on the opposing side and saw my guild leader was at home. So I snuck into the city and into his house and jumped on his bed. After a while of confusion, I let him know it was me playing around. We had fun.

I'm not an expert, but I think that might be a little harder. If you hover your mouse on thier names, It would have to be constantly refreshing if you want an acurate information , but if you open a new window it will just refresh it right there and then, that's just my opinion, as I said Im not an expert

If I want to tell you where I am, that's my business. Redfeather, please PM me with the details of you and your guild leader having "fun" in bed. I'm quite interested in the offspring... **Hasn't eaten in 2 days**

Player 1 was harassed by Player 2. Player 1 leaves. Player 2 tracks down Player 1. Player 2 continues . . and continues.

LOL
It wasn't like that! He had a a little bed recieved as a quest reward in his crafting room. I was a halfling and ran into the crafting room, and then started jumping up and down on the little bed.
Halflings make really annoying sounds when they jump. He hates halflings!
I'd also run up and point at things, then turn to him and stare for a bit.
I suppose it was all good considering how mind numbing crafting can be in that game. It gave him something to make fun of while he was crafting.

Shoot, so there's no baby? Oh well, I guess I can still admire the baby in your avatar while I smack my chops. He's so cute, I could eat him all up... I want my baby back baby back baby back, I want my baby back baby back baby back, I want my Chili's baby back ribs...

Normally I'd have thought you were kidding, but my avatar is frightened senseless of your avatar! Look, she's screaming in fear! (it's hard to tell in the avatar pic, but the baby has pink pajamas).

Ahhhh, dinna eat me! Just give me some minoxidil.


That's one mean looking mesmer you have.
Is that the 15k endgame mask? I've only managed to save up enough for the puny 10k one which does not look nearly as menacing as that one!
You look like an oni from asian fantasy.

If you were being harassed by your OWN friends/guildies then they dont deserve to be your friend, besides if you read my original post again, you will see that I also suggested that there should be a "privacy" button. I guess you should read again.

Been suggested before as many have said.

I think it was shot down for one thing mainly.

Cyber Stalking, you dont need permission to have someone on your friends list, so you could follow somebody around alot, and possibly cause some discomfort to them, atleast if you pm someone annoyingly they can block you, but whats it when they can show up wherever you go and just emote infront of you or w/e.

A true friend or guild mate would say where they were, and if they needed help or not when you asked, so just leave it at that.
