I'm serious; I really don't care if it's used or not. It was confusing to me because we've been on the presence system for a year, which has just as many flaws (e.g. asking OOC where a character is located), but it's not worth putting a marking next to every single post. That's ludicrous.

Here's a different idea, then: if someone is speaking with a set of characters that are in a different area, you can put the markings to say "this person is separate." So Ruby would put them on, but Violet, Techi, and Meredy wouldn't need to. The markings don't even need to be consistently placed, just every now and then so that everybody knows.
