Guild Wars 2

Hey there! I had a question regarding the status of the offline/block feature. I did a bit of looking around to see if anyone had the same issues I have with the current system. As it stands, there is currently no way to make it so that people can’t see you online in a permanent sense. If you block someone they still see when you come online, what character you’re on and where you are in the game. I feel if you’ve blocked someone it should show you as offline all the time and shouldn’t reveal any info about what you’re doing.

Similarly, the current offline function is only available once you enter the character select screen. At this point you’re already shown to be online to anyone that is on your friends list/follower list/and even blocked list.

I’m hoping with this thread to maybe get some kind of response from Anet on the adding or the non-desire to implement improvements to the current system. The last response from Anet on this issue(that I could see) was well over a year ago saying that they would “look into it”. So yea, mostly just seeing if there is any progress in improvements to this system or if there isn’t why that would be the case.

It will come in the Feature Pack 2016

I agree with the OP, it should be implemented better.

Since I sometimes come to the game to do a specific thing and log out as soon I would also see the option to choose your status while login into the game.
