I may look you up too ModernCelt, if I decide to play some Alb again
more regularly and develop my Heretic.

Have you tried XFire guys? 

Being an old fart I'm not really much into all these new whiz bang
chat thingies but Xfire is really neat. It lets you keep a friends
list that works in most MMORPGs and sends you in-game messages when
your friends log-in. I could be playing Hib/Gareth and if you are on
my friends list I would get a message to say that you had just logged
in on Albion/Ector. It works cross games as well so if you are playing
CoH and your buddies from DAoC log on to DAoC you get a message in CoH
telling you that. Very cool.

It also keeps a list of your MMORPG profile with what games you have
played, how many hours played in each etc. Lots of other features too.

It's free check out http://www.xfire.com.
I was pleasantly surprised.
