I thought about proposing the ability to go @invis on the 'who' like you can on the @who, but I think that would end up making the who list less valuable over all.

At the same time, I think it would be nice if the who list didn't show idle people, or it showed them as idle. ICly this could mean they haven't been 'active' on the network lately, but in reality it would just be tied to how long they've been idle. If someone is idle over 30-60 minutes, we could not show them, or show them as idle (maybe a column for active/inactive, or just a marker next to SIC id like * to denote they haven't been active recently).

This would help people who see someone on network, message them, and don't get a reply to understand why.

Thoughts?

I think I'd be more in favor of the "mark as idle" approach, rather than not showing them at all. That way someone could still basically "leave a message" that could maybe get responded to later.

I would love that Slither, siccing into the void, and trying to RP around someone who is permamently on who.dat, despite just being out of the machine for hours is just the worst.

With one note that when you get marked as idle, the player gets OOC notice, so if they just forgot and are actually by the screen, they can command back into alive.

I've added this, but it's not showing an OOC notice. People can just not be idle if they don't want to show up on that section of the list.
