Sometimes when I come online just to check something that is up for auction of to sell some materials I often get alot of party invites from people that are either in my friends list or guild. It can be quite irritating when the screen goes dark and the box pops up asking you if you want to join "whoevers" party while you are in the middle of doing something. Sometimes I am by the Auction House and think that it is a trade so I click on what would be the trade button and end up wasting 10 energy (although now I have learnt my lesson) which is 2 and a bit hours of mist. You might say that I could just ignore the people but it would be too much hassle to ignore everyone on my friends and guild list and then unignore then when I log off as there are well over 80 people in my friend and guild list. It would be nice to be able to, if you like "ignore all" or not appear on others friends list as online in these cases.

My notifications haven't been popping up lately, it goes into a nice little button on the top left.
@xiax - I have made friends and told them "please ask me before you invite me to a dungeon" but this does not always work. There are also people that I do not mind going into the clockworks with that do this occasionally, and so would not like to delete from my friends list. It is not only the friends that do this but also members of the guild, new members are added everyday and when they want someone to party with they may spam invites.
@GallantPyro - That does happen to me sometimes, usually when I get multiple invites at once, or if I am in the middle of trading or at a shop, is there a setting for that to happen when you are running around also?
Its just a bit irritiating at times, and there are still people that I do not mind dungeon crawling with in my friends list, also in the guild. It seems that no one else shares this feeling so I guess I'll keep pressing "No thanks"
Or, you know, you could make some friends who ask you if you're interested in doing a dungeon with them before spamming you with random invites which you don't even know where it leads.
