I have added a couple of my friend's alts to my Friends List, but don't know if I'll be able to see when he's online before he adds my alt.

I was just wondering so I don't assume he isn't online. Guess I can just send an in-game mail with my alt's name. I'm just used to games where both parties know via "Friend Request" and get added to each other's lists at the same time.

My apologies if this has been addressed already, but I didn't find a similar thread when searching.
