Alright but why would anyone try to whisper people when they're offline?
And you have a profile on the forums. You also have a group pm feature so you can alert people.

Not everyone uses the forums. I have plenty of friends that I know that don't touch this forum and hardly if ever touch CFM. The only way i can talk to them is in-game, and we are barely online at the same time. It's a good feature for people who don't have have communication with people outside of in-game. Some people you just can't force to use other means of communication.

The "send message" thing that's already in-game because of a broken feature is already alluding people to this, might as well use it.

yeah but then we go back to "but why would anyone try to whisper people when they're offline?"
is there going to be some kind of status thing indicating you have a message like the other suggestions in this section or is it just play with your luck and hope they have a message?
that's what im asking because it makes no sense for anyone to just whisper somebody offline when their message won't go through

"The "send message" thing that's already in-game because of a broken feature is already alluding people to this, might as well use it."
why is it broken in the first place

from my understanding of the suggestion you would get the whisper as soon as you log in. the point of the suggestion is to see if it's possible for user A to send a whisper to user B, then the server waiting for user B to get online to receive said whisper. im not techy so im not sure if this is entirely possible if user B logs in while user A is offline.

to answer your question of why, it would be to send an important message like suggested in the OP, or for any reason a user wishes. though i would also throw in an option to disable these kinds of whispers in the case of moderators who are already whispered enough as is. basically it would be an offline PM system to keep contact with users who dont use other means of communication.

recently the ability to PM someone on the forums and then getting a notification about it in-game was implemented by the admins, but it broke less than a day being put in, but the "send message" option if you click someones name who is offline is still there. not sure why it broke though.

Messages like this would be possible to implement, but since i'm still a beginner programmer, i'm not sure if this type of feature would clog up servers with lag or anything like that. [/quote]

Twillla, I suggest you also add the message above the quote. The method explained above makes more sense and other players will easily understand your point. even if the message above isn't your point, it's actually a better idea.
