How to check activity??

This game has created great options for guilds allowing for alot of diversity, but the only thing they didn't give us was a way to see who is active!! I can't even see who is online unless I friend my whole guild. I've played around the online strategy games before and all of them have at least one or two major flaws and this is one of Settler's flaws.

I've played a game where there were three modes of activity: online, offline, and inactive and the whole guild/alliance could see who was online at the time. This way you don't have to send a responder message every month or so to keep up to date on who is active or check guild chat all the time. Guild activity was monitored through three colors of dots(we already have this for our friends list which allows us to see who is on):

online-green dot
AFK-yellow dot
offline-red dot
inactive(hasn't logged on in 1 week)-grey dot

If everyone in a guild could see this, stuff would be much easier.

I agree or ever next to the members has the last time they were logged in.

Go to your members forum profile and it will tell you their join date and last activity. If you wanna submit your idea to the developers then fill out a support ticket

This is a great suggestion.

throw in a yellow dot for AFK (comes on after being online for X amount of time without activity)

that's a good idea rawrnoob but I've sent this idea to settlers at least 4 times and have gotten no reply but now we can at least see who is currently online in the guild which is a start I guess
