Team XLink posted more about the developement of the new XLink One, that will replace the XLink Kai multi-platform global gaming network:
"Here's a list of some of the most frequently requested features for xlink one. Unless I really screw something up, all of these will be in the first release. If there's something else you think should be on here, let me know!
* The overhead that xlink one will add to packets has been reduced by more than 90%. As a result people with limited upload bandwidth will be able to host more people.
* Adding somebody to your friends list works the way you would expect - they get a notification asking for permission, and they have the option to add you at the same time.
* You can set an away message. People who have you on their friends list will be able to see it even after you sign off.
* You can see the last time people on your friends list were online.
* You can block people - their chat messages will not appear on your screen and they won't be able to send you private messages. This will carry over between logins.
* You can ban people - they won't be able to join arenas you create. This also carries over between logins.
* You can lock and unlock your arenas.
* You can change the maximum number of players allowed in your arena after it is created.
* You can transfer ownership of your arena to somebody else, so if you're getting ready to sign off people can keep playing.
* You can grant other people moderator status in your arena. You can also make this permanent so they automatically have it in any arenas you create."
