I would also like the /anon as well.

To prevent random invities, includes pestering certain class, like tanks to join the party.

In FFXI, players go /anon to craft and do some quest and did not want random invites to bother them, remember not replying to a tell is kinda disrespecting, which what FFXI taught me. Going /anon kinda gives you the right to not send a reply, also /away combination is good, but people get suspicious when they see an /away person running/fishing etc.

Sometimes Bard, Tank, Red Mage, gets bothered a lot by mostly amateur players, for party invite, since those jobs were essential or a balanced/Mission/BCNM etc etc party.

In FFXIV this would work only if they implemented the /search function, with custom comment for each players, which they set up. like "doing quest" "exp pt no thx" "be back in 30 mins" "i'm playing solo right now"etc etc
