Implementing this with a on/off feature only (with no other conditions for example as i wrote above red players cant turn it off)
for a few simple reasons, people want to track others not be tracked themselfs.

Yeah, I mean do reds want the blues to know where they are at all times while the blues remain totally hidden? Thats no fair at all, even worse then having no tracking at all

On the issue as a whole though we can break it down I guess.

If there is a switch, it would have to be on a timer, and only other people with it switched on would be able to get the info.

There is still some problems with this, mainly because you can have an alt in a house somewhere, log on and just quickly check where people are. Thats why I believe there should be cost and possibly time involved in this regardless. The refresh tracking on XUO made it insanity, with that you have a pure pvp shard which INX is not.

But I think its important people realise how much this issue effects gameplay on a shard. Like token said, on xuo he was constantly being attacked. Here he got attacked one time at blizzard gazers and got very upset. People here have become used to never having to worry about being attacked. But ultimately it makes for very monotonous gameplay.

When I think back to OSI UO, or Asheron's Call, or really any MMO that has great pvp at the beginning. The thing that always happens is, players who get killed start whining. And inevitably the game companies give in to the people crying, cuz they cry very loudly, and the gameplay starts to become less fun. And as more and more of the things the criers wanted changed gets changed, the gameplay becomes more and more bland. Eventually the game isnt at all like the fun game it started out as, and even the people who wanted the changes start to say to themselves, man i had a lot more fun a few months back.

So anyway, the name of this thread is very apt. The pleasurable feeling of paranoia is definitely missing here. Theres no danger at all besides a few of the dungeons. While people may not be happy if you staff ever put something like this in, if its done right, it can add a lot more player interaction, and spice up gameplay. I'm fairly sure in the long run most people would enjoy it.
