Green should probably stay currently active. Blue can be active within the last 24 hrs. That said, I've played games that have had color-coded activity indicators before. This should work well if ever implemented.
I like this idea very good, and might help those guilds whose lights are inactive at the moment. Like ours.
I start going through my friends list when the events come around and I have to do some achievements I don't really want to do. Some people I see on all the time, but then as I scroll down the list I never know if some people are offline for now or haven't been around in months.
Great idea!
I like it also.
only noobs come up with color coated activity charts! +1 good idea
Yes, I like Evil_J's color coding idea, including some indicator of online and active recently. We have a few members for whom the light is often on when no one is home. It'd be nice to know if they're afk so we don't spend time waiting if they can take an LS or need a hand with the gq - we can move on to help the folks at their keyboard. And having an idea of time since last login would certainly free up some officer overhead on guild management.
+1 from me too.
I think though that Green for online/active now is more universally recognisable. So I would swap the green and blue. I love the idea of the little ghost for extended period of inactivity too - lol
And I think a different color to differentiate between just "logged in" and "logged in and active" as Kevlaar just mentioned would be really valuable
Good idea.
