Friend
Commands:
A user adds another user to their friend list. When a user lists their
friends they will receive information about all of their friends in digest
form. This will allow at a glance to see which of your friends are online.
The digest information is similar to the current output of the /whois
command. For each user you will see which program they are using and which
channel/game they are in (so long as it's a public channel/game). For
Diablo II the name of the game is not revealed (even if it's public).
The maximum number of friends in the list is 25.
Since we want to provide more features to users who trust each other,
if users add each other to their friends list they will be considered
mutual friends. When enumerating friends, mutual friends will have their
channel/game name revealed even if the user is in a private channel/game
so that they can always find each other. When mutual friends perform certain
actions they may be notified. The current notifications are;
/friends
|
The base command for all friends operations, on its own it prints
out help about the friends commands. (alias /f)
|
/friends list
|
Displays you current friends list and has a summary of what each
friend is doing at the moment on Battle.net.(alias: /friends l or
/f l)
|
/friends add [accountname] |
Adds the specified account name to your friends list. You will
receive an error if the account name is an invalid account (contains
naughty words etc) or if you have too many friends in your list. (alias:
/friends a) |
/friends remove [accountname] |
Removes the specified account name from your friends list. You
will receive an error message if the account isn't in the list.(alias:
/friends r) |
/friends msg [message] |
Sends a message to all of your friends.(alias: /friends m) |
/friends promote [accountname] [position] |
Promotes the account name in your friends list. If no
position is supplied (or is zero) then the friend will be promoted
up one place in the list. If the position is supplied then the friend
will be moved to that position from the top of the list with number
1 being the highest position.(alias: /friends p) |
/friends demote [accountname] [position] |
Demotes the account name in your friends list. If no position is
supplied (or is zero) then the friend will be demoted one place in
the list. If the position is supplied then the friend will be moved
to that position from the bottom of the list with number 1 being the
lowest position.(alias: /friends d) |
Friends Aliases |
Just about anyplace in battle.net (including the friends command
themselves) you can refer to your friends via a short cut. To use
a shortcut use %f[num] where num refers to your friend by their position
in you friends list. For example to whisper to your number one friend
you would use /msg %f1 hi there |
