I wish that when you cursor over a name it would show that the person was Directing when they are Directing a Tournament.

One knows if they are playing at a table and where that table is
One knows when they are playing in a tournament
One knows when they are kibbing wherever that may be

but one cannot determine that a TD is TDing and therefore 'run off their seats' !!

a nice notice would be " TDing - do not disturb"

or maybe "Directing - private chat disallowed"

I'd hate to have private chat disallowed. For one thing, when I'm directing a tournament, I want people to message me. If I have kibbitzers disabled, for example, people need to have some way to find out how many boards are left before they decide to sub or create a tournament. Or (when I still did this) if somebody needed to be let back in after I kicked them out when they had connection problems. Or if a kibbitzer notices that somebody's cheating. Or if Gxxxx or Txxx notice I have a large tourney going on and volunteer to co-direct.

But I agree it would be nice to see a "Player is directing" note.
