Clans have:
Code: Select all
global world clan message: /c Hello Clan
note1: all online clan members get the message "Hello Clan".
note2: the text after the /c-command can be longer
Friends have nothing
Suggestion:
Code: Select all
global world friend message: /f Hello Friends
note1: all online friends get the message "Hello Friends".
note2: the text after the /c-command can be longer

I like the general concept and think it would be a good addition.
One potential issue though could be some confusion in the responses if friends do not have a shared group of friends. For example:
Player A is friends with B, C, D, and E
Player B is friends with A, C, F, and G
Player C is friends with A, B, H, and I
Players A, B, and C could chat together nicely. Players D, E, F, G, H, and I would be getting confusing messages.
That being said, I can think of plenty of situations where I may want to send a /f to all of my friends who are in game. Maybe they send a private message or /w back to me. Maybe they have a good reason to send a reply to all of their friends too.
Depending on circumstances this might not be used for an ongoing conversation, but it would be nice to have.

OOPS! And that probably why it's not implemented.
However:
A: /f Anyone want to help me get X
D: normal message: I will be free in 5
C: normal message: can't in a war fighting mossies ATM RAID helps
A: /f OK folks D is coming to my aid
E: normal message: I was going to say yes too, call if you need more help.
B: offline
Maybe make a "non-clan"

SellSword(12152)(FL01)
FL01 = FriendLeader Group: 01 <--- 01 to consist of any 2 characters: FLo4

FM01 = FriendMember Group: 01
Only the FL can invite/kick members
member can leave anytime they want
A person can only belong to one FL Group - just like a clan
A "FL" can have as many members as a Clan can have

As long as the FriendLeader setup you describe is only chat-group related, I see no issues with it. If anything else were to be applied to it, then clans already have it covered, in my opinion.

my idea was for 100% chat group related - nothing else.

I suggested this a while back. Having "group chats" with people able to search chats to find what they need. For example player A makes a group chat "selling gear" player B joins group and they talk out a price and meeting place.
I would like to even see the ability to trade with friends without being on same map.

Great minds huh, well in this case yours, mine is questionable.
