Hello everyone!

While working a favor under another director's account, someone else logged on and did not see my name listed as being online. When they subsequently logged into the director's account, the favor was quit and they worked another case. This is not the first time this has happened to me, and I am wondering if there is a way to notify someone that someone is in the account currently when they attempt to log on? I have lost many a case this way...

Hey R. Trillian has been mentioned, but I don't think it's compatible with Mac which Ara uses, and I also don't think she can get into the chat room that our agency does use. Oh, what should we do with Ara? LOL j/k Ara, ya know we love you.

Biff, our agency works very well together. There are times that one of us may be away for an extended amount of time, or just away from the computer for a bit. The detective who's account this happened in was away for a few days, and we had permission to use his account for this kind of thing. I think one of the reasons that we do work so well together is just that; we just do. :-) We all have a mutual trust and respect for each other and want to do what we can to be the best agency that we can be. :-)

Well, we use AIM to avoid those problems and to work with each other during hunts. Password sharing IS how we work together as an agency. We can't all be logged in at once (we work, go on vacations and get sick, just like everyone else) and it is the best way to advance hunts.

Biff I think "forcing" isn't exactly what our agency is about....while there are several of us (and you know who you are ladies lol) who have no lives and spend more time on the game than anything else in the universe, others do have things to do outside of the sleuth world...

Hmm. My brother introduced me to Trillian, and HE has a Mac. It should be compatible.

Ah, well. This isn't the Trillian Thread, so I'll shaddap.
