E-mail SG invites


Ad Astra

 

Posted

Just a small complaint/suggestion but a lot of my friends have this fairly common habit of making a TON of new characters, particularly after a change and sometimes it can be a pain to link up and invite them all on a work heavy week where we might all be playing limitedly or at different times or just want to run through a task force and not wait around logging on and off with various charcters.

It would be very nice if we could just E-mail people an invitation to join a SG rather then having to wait till they are online with a particular character to send an invite.

So very, very yes every time this comes up. Just some way to invite my own toons to the SG would be great.

I can think of no good reason not to allow this, so /signed

As a means of inviting your alts, yes.

That would be good too. It is frustrating having to wait to get into your own SG.

/signed, as always.

Yes please!

This is something that I have wanted a long time. My villain group is composed mainly of my own toons and it is often difficult to get a friend logged on red side at the same time to invite one of my new toons in.

While I don't strictly NEED this change (my wife plays as well, so we can invite each other at any time), it would still be a nice thing to have.

This would be useful. I currently have an occassionally active 2nd account so I don't have to pester other people when I'm adding new alts. I imagine even with this feature I'd still keep the 2nd active at least as often as it is at the moment since I have characters on both.

So /signed.

Also allow us to promote characters/alts that are offline too.

I have suggested this a couple of times.

Thee only problem with this is I'll get confused when I go redside and open my mail to an invite to my blueside group. /signed.

People have been suggesting email/offline SG invites pretty much since Day One.
I'll bet this has always been in the top ten most wanted things since the beginning of the game.
Why we don't have it yet continues to amaze me...

Now that the code is in place to email people things like INF and recipes it would seem like the ability to email an SG invite to another character would be almost trivial.
/signed as always.

Well we can always hope it will be in the next update.

Sadly being optimistic only goes so far. If anything the history of this game has proven that no matter how easy it'd be for the Devs to give us this capability they don't seem overly motivated to provide it. Even if it finally happens in the very next update it'll still be well over 6 years too late for many people.

Also the option to Promote members who are offline.
I am in charge of a SG that has limited invite access so if im on a character that is rank 1 and a mate asks for an invite ive got to swap, invite, then swap back.
Obviously if im on a TF/SF then they have to wait.

I can't argue with you there (pushing for SG related development has not been a particularly successful endeavor for some time). I still would be very pleased if this were to finally happen in the near term.


One man's terrorist is another man's freedom (or freem?) fighter; just as one man's exploit is another man's feature.

IVe always thought that my global account should be tagged for all SGs that my characters are high ranking enough members to give invites on that server. That way, a new character I log in can simply go to "options: SG: and join any of those SGs without any muss or fuss. Im simply inviting myself via my global.

That would be even better!

Was going to make a new thread suggesting this but "Search is my friend!"

Freedom is probably sucking up all the o2 right now; but this would really be a nice QoL improvement (eventually).
