Suggestion about list lenght

Hey Foto, first of all, good work with all done so far in this project, its pretty good.

Testing it, i notice something that i think you guys will need to adjust. When a friend list is big, mine have 200+ users, the query take a long time to be done and it fill all the joomla site. I think the best would be to filter the results only for online friends, more than the whole list, this will keep it short and less busy for users with long friend list.

Just my thoughs

Hi aramil,

I guess I\'m just a lonely sole. If I had 200 friends I wouldn\'t know what to do with them all. <img src=\"{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"Smile\" />

Maybe a \"friends\", \"acquaintance\", etc.. lists .? <img src=\"{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"Smile\" /> . While the idea of pulling just who is online is an okay idea to reduce the queries for those not, I might suggest curbing how many queries pulled by reducing the amount of names listed. Normally, when such a list is quite intensive, it becomes a \"group\" function. And the group queries provides the information for whom is online and offline from in-world group accounts. A good length of list size for friends would be no more than 20. Certainly not 200 plus as you mentioned. I think your idea is good however, provided a toggle for showing \"just online\", or \"all friends\" being available from the front end. A dedicated hosting process or coding for allowing a dedicated server to host your friends list is just out of the question I\'m afraid. <img src=\"{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"Laughing\" />

Thank you,

Haahaha, its just that i greet everyone new on the grid and usually add them as friends in case they need help, thats why the long list but usually online just 5 or 10 lol.
