A /where function

[Dracaeon]

I think it would be good idea to have a /where function.  The command would basically give you which map a certain player is in, like hydlaaplaza, bdroad1, etc.  It would be basically there to give an idea of where a player is, without really needing to ask them directly.  I often have been in a point where I need such a function.  I think it could be really useful.

isn't the buddy list already enough stalking?
you see where your guildies are - ok, fair enough - but random strangers? just send a tell and they'll tell you if they want to

That and it's best not to allow players to know where others are when some plots/strategies might depend on this lack of knowledge.

I agree with Dracaeon, a /where function is good because, noobs don't have a clue what the name of the map that they are on they would just say; "I am out in the wilderness, I see a tree and a rock infront of me, can you help me so I am no longer lost"

Maybe for privacy reasons, possible being able to use it only if they are in a group with you and/or you ask them, like trading?
I am guessing this would work like /who other than:
1) you need a name (/where Vakachehk, not just /where and it shows everyone)
2) instead of rank and guild information being next to the name, it will just have the map name.

I still don't see a point. if he doesn't know where he is, tell him to use /pos

I would LOVE to have this feature - however i agree with people that say that there is no reason for this.

First off, yes, it is very much stalking

and secondly: if you are trying to find noobs, yes, you can just tell them to do /pos and to tell you what it is.

Personally, i would like this to be added, but proffesionally i think it wouldn't be a good feaure

I see the use for this feature, but if it is implemented, there needs to be a /where on and /where off toggle or something, so that those that don't wish to be found won't be.

The "Guild" window already shows the map where a guild member is. That should be enough. The rest is a matter of agreement in tells.

If someone is lost and needs help, they can use the coordinates and sector names in their own "/pos" report and tell someone who knows to use them.
