When is Everyone Usually On?

Postby Galifray » Tue Nov 29, 2016 6:27 pm

Hey all,

Finally got my request accepted to join the US PC group. The past few times I've been on though, everyone is offline. What time does everyone usually play? I'm usually on in the evening to late night. Just wondering, would be nice to see some friendly ships that aren't NPCs.

Hi, if you are looking in the group (as opposed to your friends list) then it actually doesn't work.

Our group sizes broke the system and the only way FD could fix it was to turn off the on-line/off-line response for the groups, therefore when you look at the group roster everyone always appears to be off-line.

If you aren't hanging around a system with a lot of commander traffic (like a GC, engineer, or popular mission location) you may not run across much of anybody. Space is big, and there are only 32,000 of us. ;)

Since you added yourself to the friends list, you'll start seeing some green icons on your gal map as you add new friends but bumping into someone in-system is fairly rare.

Lol! OK, good to know. Yeah, since I put my name in the friends list thread I've been getting a lot of requests. Thanks for the help all!

I'm generally at work most of the day, and on later in the evening. Though, as you can tell, I am a bit of a forum dweller while here in my office.

Same here. But isn't that what you're supposed to at the office? :D
