Trying to fit everyone into a few "pre-defined" groups is not a very good idea in my opinion. Peoples wants, needs, and uses are to varied to be known ahead of time. It also doesn't address the need for an ignore chat / ignore model feature, as having a group doesn't not mean people will behave appropriate for that group..purposefully or ignorantly.
With that in mind, I would first implement the ignore chat / ignore model functionality. On the pilots list next to each client should be two buttons, one for ignoring chat, and one for ignoring the model as well. A group system would require more thought and effort I think...and should be done properly if at all. Ideally I think one should be at least be able to create, join, and leave a group at runtime. Groups could be removed automatically when there are no more users in it. Maybe mp should evolve to be more like an IRC server/client...with similar features....but obviously requires a lot of work and changes. just my 2 pennies cheers! --Jacob ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
