How About An "Incognito" Player Status?

[Magic-Mal]

Basically what it would be is a player status that makes you not pop up on the in-game player search. Simple as that. It's not Busy. As busy blocks out all communication besides local chat and linkshells.

An Incognito mode could help against RMT, FC invite spam, and stalkers who just want to get on your nerves by following you. While allowing your LS, Friends, FC mates, and anyone in proximity of you to still /tell, invite to group, whatever

I'd like this OR the ability to customise the busy status

Or you can accept the social aspect of a mmorpg like normal people.

Won't it benefit RMT as well though? Like their Ekasadasdhhgasd HGasdadsjahd names won't pop up in any search at all.

Who wants to search them? We want to get away from them. Incognito idea is good. I like it.

I could use and appreciate this.

Idk, I consider myself normal and still have never gotten any socializing done with those RMT spammers despite my best efforts..

Have you ever used a chat system? Even just once. There's usually Away, Busy, Invisible, ect. It's not about a social aspect. Hell, walk around a big city irl and- oh boy, not everyone is talking to each other. Sociability plays a role in raids but PvE? Not so much.

Chill.

Its almost as though the OP wants to enjoy the social aspect that is taken away when using the busy status

Chill if you dont want to be social set yourself busy if you still want to receive tells add ppl outside of the game. The point if you gave such status it wouldn't make a nice impression for new players. Busy status is fine as it is if someone stalk you report. Lol And your rl example doesn't make sense since u can try to talk someone. Imagine all ppl with status that let u receive /tells only from friends. New ppl wouldn't have such a nice time playing a game and I say this as a person who plays alone alot of times and not being social myself much Ig and irl.

"oh boy" lmao how mature
