    Unless they changed something after I quit, played from NA release date to 2007, /anon still showed you online, and you were still able to get friend requests, tells, LS invites etc. The reason why /anon was so needed for XI was indemand jobs such as WHMs/BLMs/RDMs/Tanks and high level crafters to get constantly spammed by randoms looking for warps, teleports, fill in spots for parties and crafting. I used this feature a lot since I mained WHM/BLM. It worked in FFXI because only friends and LS mates that knew me closely knew what my jobs where. In a game like FFXIV it would make absolutely no sense if implemented the exact same way because you would still show up on world search and still receive invites and tells.

    All in all if you want to play by yourself and not be bugged set yourself to /busy and have all the people you want to contact you in your LSes or FC.
