Be sure to keep that in mind because you never know if they might truly need you. Just remember how it is when you really need to talk to a good friend. You tell them that your playing with someone else right now and if you feel like its none of their businues, say that you are simply busy. I had to deal with some people trying to track me down and its so easy to handle. So many misleading, attention craving, whiny, hypocrites out there… Why not just tell whoever it is that you dont want to talk to, that your busy with something or that you want to just chill by yourself or even with your “other best friend”… So yeah this feature would come in handy for some people… sadly enough it’s no big deal to lie these days it seems… so sad… I had a friend that did this often she would rather lie and say “oh i’m not feeling good” or “i’m just going to sleep now” then tell these other so called friends of hers that she simply doesn’t want to play with them at the moment. I do understand how this would help a lot of liars and people that have 2 or 3 close friends and always tell them that they are “the only friend they have” and they are “the best friend they have”. It’s not a very huge issue (I’m pretty sure this is just a me issue lol), but it’s one I hope could be addressed in the future.

But they can still see me when I’m online and they still ask me if they can join and ask me if i could play. Mostly it’s just because I want to be alone or I just want to talk to one person but other people keep trying to join (I’m afraid of sounding rude by denying them joining so I usually just go offline). I have anxiety disorders and I hate being confronted about people as to why I’m offline and them asking me why I’m avoiding people.

When you’ve already been offline and open overwatch, it turns into “offline for 1 minute,” so they can still see when I’ve gone online.

They can also see you if you are in a custom game, and the lobby appears in green even if you’re offline.

People can go in their friends list, right click my name, and see ‘join game’ ‘spectate’ ‘request invite to group’ and those other stuff.

So… a problem with the “appear offline” feature is that my friends can still see that I’m playing.
