Linkshell Member online notifications.

[Dazusu]

I was wondering if it would be possible to add a feature to notify (in the chat log) when a Linkshell Member has equipped their Linkpearl (or just come online with the Linkpearl already equipped) Most other MMO's I've played have this basic function. Also an option to filter this information so you can't see it if you don't want to be notified.

#playerName# has entered #linkshellName#.

Is this really needed? I've played Wow and I've seen how the guild system works there, what you're suggesting is annoying as crap honestly..in big guilds it's constantnly beeping as people log on or off and on small ones it's a non-issue. It's ok if your used to it on WoW but players here aren't and it's obnoxious, if people want to tell you they logged on they can say so if they don't why does it matter?

I would absolutely love this. It's not just in other MMOGs, but in any other chatroom-like protocol that you can see people joining/leaving. This was another thing that bothered me so much at first (after being used to IRC, and well, everything else) but that I got used to over time to the point that I didn't even think of bringing it up. It would help a lot with seeing when other people d/c and you don't have to waste your time talking. Maybe can make it so that others don't see you join if you're invisible (on POL).

As long as the option's there to filter it out, if a decent amount of people want it and it's relatively simple to implement, sounds like a good idea.

I'd have the filter on

Yeah as long as options to filter would be good!

Did you read my whole post? "Also an option to filter this information so you can't see it if you don't want to be notified."

In addition to that, as posted above, it wont notify people of logon/logoff if that person is set to invisible.

Great idea. Anything to help ls leaders with organization is a good addition imo.

This notification would be nice for parties and friend list to.

Good suggestion. A full overhaul of LS system and interface would be nice too, but this would be a good start. Also taking the community site out of beta one of these years would be nice too and making it more streamlined. Put SNS linking/sharing in as well like the FFXIII-2 devs did for that game. Then perhaps players would be more apt to use an the official LS community site rather than linking to some 3rd party site filled with trolls and petty little people who will rate you down for being able to HQ food and other crafts more often than them.

What if I don't always want people to know I just logged on @_@ I may sometimes want some peace and quiet when I first get on and not alert every person in LS that I just got on >_>

I have a feeling I'm not the only one that feels this way,

Also, if you wanna know who's on theres a linkshell list.

Against it personally, with or without filter.
