    Activity Check - Lights

    As the leader of a big guild, i like to control the activity of our players, specially the ones being inactive for long time periods. Unfortunately the game needs an improvement in this department because we only have the 'Active: Yes/No' in the guild interface, and the green lights to check who is online.
    Ive a simple and clean solution for this, instead of a green light for online members, have one light to every player with different colors accordingly to their last login. Heres a pic:



    Blue: Online now
    Green: Online in the past 24h
    Yellow: Last logged 72h or more ago
    Red: Last logged 7 or more days ago
    Grey: Last active over 2 weeks ago

    This could work for guild and also friends list, would help alot to control who is active and who isnt within the guild, instead of having to look everyday and take notes.
    Ofcourse these colors and timings are just my suggestion, could be different if theres a better suggestion

    I say..... if they've been inactive over 2 weeks, their avatar changes to a skull!

    I like the idea...I might even add another color:

    Light blue: Online and has done something requiring user interaction in the last 30/60 mins

    ...since ONLINE and ACTIVE aren't necessarily the same thing.

    Great idea.
    I would want to give inactive more than 2 weeks, but it's a great idea.

    This will indeed help clear the friend list..
    Right now, I don't even know if someone will feel bad if I remove them.. or if they are already long gone.

    LOL

    I was sick and unable to log in for one day in like the last year or two and I get grayed out for two weeks.

    Control our activity indeed, think that was not the word you meant to use

    Still I like this idea, this and "sort by activity level" would already improve the friends list a great deal.
