An icon or simply graying out the revenge button if person is online/shielded.
I hate going through my attackers and finding almost all of them online/shielded after I check their base to see if it is worth it. This would save me a lot of time!

SC must not want to do this for some reason, as it seems so obvious.Quote:

Any specific reasoning? I can't think of the harm, as I can find out if they are online or not by clicking the revenge button.Quote:

A second approach could be to add the revenge option to the screen while a player is visiting a base from his defense log.
I believe that implementing either of these aspects would increase a player's likelihood of revenging their opponent, without the worry of a privacy violation.
It's not a privacy issue. It's a technical one. Everyone's game would have to constantly poll the server to determine if someone could be revenged or not.
Regardless, read the sticky as this has been ruled out.
I fully support the idea. Great idea! Very usefull! And an message show when your 'attacker' is online and ready to be attacked!!!
At sometime, the game will know if the player is online. At this moment, the server can warn.Quote:

How about you?
Face pain or palm pain?
Revenging shouldn't be easy. The easier it is for you to revenge, the easier it will be to be revenged. The balance is fine as it is.
Quote: "Im sorry but an online indicator if a person is on or or offline is ruled out."They already have this. *checks revenge list**clicks**player is online* or *player has shield*We request one less click. Actually, it would be more private as it would simply grey out the revenge button.Actually, we request that we not have to click a button to find out if it can be clicked (poor UI design).
It's because when you click the button it makes one request to the servers.Quote:

Your proposal is that the game polls ALL bases in you revenge list to check that statistic.
It would be a pointless server load since most of the time you have no interest in being revenged.
(Many players never revenge at all)
Any indicator of a players online status is ruled out - how hard is that to get?
