Breeze	2:43am Oct 15 2009 (last edited on 2:51am Oct 15 2009)
Normal User Posts: 354	Whenever I wander around Rescreatu and I don't talk on the shoutbox for a moment or two, people will sometimes type things like, "Breeze must have signed off..." Or something of that sort. I think there should be a type of Sign On/Off method that says if a user is currently active on the ShoutBox. Example: Breeze has Signed On* to the ShoutBox* Breeze has Signed Off of the ShoutBox Example 2: Breeze is no longer active on the ShoutBox Breeze is currently *away. Just because you sign off of the ShoutBox, shouldn't mean that you've logged out of Rescreatu :3 Or maybe it does...but either way, that's what I think should be done. Of course there is the side effect of someone that will constantly sign on and off of the ShoutBox. Breeze has Signed On to the ShoutBox* Breeze: OMG HAI GUISE OthaUsah: Hello Breeze ^^ Breeze has Signed Off of the ShoutBox Breeze has Signed On* to the ShoutBox* Breeze has Signed Off of the ShoutBox Breeze has Signed On* to the ShoutBox* Breeze: OMG HAI GUISE Breeze has Signed Off of the ShoutBox Suggestion made by Grudge: I'd like an option where we can remain 'offline' so as not to be noticed. Especially for the lurkers. Thank you for reading ^^

Normal User Posts: 1,731	I'll have to agree with Gen and Yoshi. :/ Sometimes I just don't want to be seen on the SB. And besides, it would spam the whole SB page up. There would be nothing but 'soandso signed in' and 'soandso signed out' all the time. Not to mention people would/could use it as a form of spamming. And banning someone because they log in or log out seems sorta... you know. Anyways, I think it would be more of an annoyance than an addition. Sorry. :C

Normal User Posts: 540	What if, instead of having a message saying who has signed in, we have a small auto-refreshing box that tells which users are 'signed in', and an option to remain 'invisible'? .

Normal User Posts: 1,731	Only problem would be actually getting Pat and other other coders to do that, as they have their hands full at the moment. It is a good thought, though.

Normal User Posts: 437	I have to agree with Yoshi, I do not like those auto messages space out the meaningful messages, especially at times when the SB goes fast. If someone wants to take part in the conversation, they can post hello, so everyone can see they are on, and they can post bye when they leave. I am not against this option being added if the majority would like it, but in that case please also add a button to turn the auto messages off, for those who are not interested in every n00b login and logout.
