The VIP List is a list of users that one finds important to them. The user can find this list, and whether the users added are online/offline, on the Party or Farm page.

Adding Users to the VIP List

Adding a VIP
Selecting the "VIP Settings" button from a user's menu.

On every user's Userpage, clicking the button on their About Me will display a drop-down menu which includes the "VIP Settings" option. Clicking this will bring up a pop-up window stating "User is not on your VIP List." The user may choose to select "Add as VIP (no group) or select a "category" to place the user in. These categories have no names as of now, but they may in the future. There are seven groups, all of which correspond to a symbol. These include a star, a circle, a triangle, a heart, a clover, a diamond, and a spade. If you place a user in one of these groups, they will have the corresponding symbol next to their username across the entire website.

Removing Users from the VIP List

When visiting the Userpage of a VIP, the "VIP Settings" option will state "User is currently on your VIP List" along with the symbol next to their username if they are in a category. The user may choose to select Remove from VIP List or they may change the category that the VIP is in.

On both the Farm page and the Party, a list of all users on the user's VIP List can be found. This list is divided into online and offline VIPs. An "Open All" feature is available for online VIPs, opening a multi-view of all of their Userpages. On the Farm page, the time since the user was last online is also listed. The VIP List will only provide an accurate time marker if a user has been online within the last 7 days. If the user has been offline for a period lasting longer than 7 days, the time marker will be replaced with a ">7d" until the user comes back online.

The VIP List also displays one of four statuses for each user, represented by dots. A green dot shows that a VIP is online and currently active. A red dot indicates that a user has marked themselves as busy and that they may not want to be contacted at the moment. A yellow dot next to a user's name denotes that a user is AFK (away from keyboard) and a grey dot represents that a user is currently offline.

A "Refresh" button can also be found on the VIP List, which updates its information.

Trivia

  • The VIP List replaced the Friends List (and Friends in general) on December 1st, 2016.
  • Adding/removing a user from the VIP List doesn't send a PM to said user, unlike its predecessor.
  • Prior to August 6th, 2020, the VIP List showed the exact length since a user was last active, but this was changed due to a serious misuse of the feature. [1]
