Would it be possible to have like... an online message on your page or under your icon on posts to tell other people know you're currently on the site? I always get a lot of messages asking if I'm on or not. Sooo, I was wondering if that would be a possible feature that people would want?

Aheh. Sorry That's my bad. x.x

I think this is a really good idea though. It'd be convenient, a lot more convenient than me having to click 'dashboard' all the time to see if someone posted on the forums. If they posted then I know they're online, but until then I'm just waiting and clicking. xD

I think Kim is investigating something similar for the chatroom.

I completely think this is a very good idea. But it sounds really complex to code.

So long as people have the option to toggle this off, I don't see any real objections to it.

It wouldn't be perfectly exact, but I suspect it would be good enough.

It doesn't need to be perfect As long as it just functions enough to tell us who's on.

Agreed.

...Erm... thirded?

Whee!

Mmmmmm, choices. Yummy.

I like!

I must concur with this idea. It will make it easier for me to formulate RP ideas as i shall have a better idea of how long I may have to wait till it's my post once more. Plus it'll prevent me from posting out of line where as I'll be able to see how many of the people I'm rping with are actually online so myself and others can determine if we need to wait our appropriate turn or just skip ones for the time being.

This is now available. If you have been recently active on the site, "Currently Online" will appear on your player profile.

It defaults to only your friends being able to see your online status. To change it so that no one or everyone can see your online status, go to your Dashboard and then visit "Your Settings" and look under privacy settings.

Awesome! You're amazing, Kim!

Yes she is. Once again, nice work Kim

You are the best.
