Um, if you wanted PM off couldn't you just ignore that part of the multilog?

Well, you could. But if you use PM, you still run into the problem of unnecessary PMs.

Why should thre be a list of everyone online? that just brigns back the origional problem you bought up camps.. They can still see if you're on.

Because such a person can just /set PM 0 and any person who IMs him will be returned with the message:

<***> Error: <name> is offline or has blocked your private messages.

But if there is a list of everyone online, the person who is looking for you doesn't have to send a PM. he can just look at the list.

thus he knows you're still on.
