How do you

I was wondering if its possible to see if someone's online or not. I notice how people say " I waited until they went offline" But..... I can't seem to figure out how, am I missing a spot xD or is it not possible, apart from the fact that the planet doesn't read activity on it.

Its because the planet shows no activity, its been lanxed and there is no fleet activity, or the planet has been idle for a long period of time.

Which makes this sort of cat and mouse game. If you are the hunter, never give youself away or make yourself known to the enemy. If they know what you are up to it is easily possible to fake being offline and pull a nasty ninja out of the hat.

Im sorry to restart this topic but i was also wondering how u know if someone is online or not? the Activity in the galaxy screen sometimes shows a time which is obvious enough and sometimes shows a star and sometimes a double star. what do those mean? and are there any other way to find if some one is online? i suppose the obvious one is lanxing and even using the forums and chat room...anything else?

A double star is when people type a star there to make you think they are online when they aren't. If they are online, a second star appears.

oh ok thats quite smart,, well what about this? what actions cause a star to appear next to your name? as in if i wanted to seem offline to intice an enemy to attack i.e. going onto particular pages or actions?

Being on a page of that planet willmake a star. Try to stay off that planet and they will think you are off. Moons are great because they don't get stars.
