Yes, it can. Make so that it removes you from the who list.

A command that lets you remove yourself from the wholist and remove all your eq from locate while seeing everyone else who is online and being able to locate others is a bad idea.

Devil's Advocate: Iif you can't see someone, they are already removed from the who list for you. This isn't that big of a stretch on that account.

Then when they reappear you know they were cloaked.

If the cloak would mask the identity of someone holding an item from locating type spells. It's a wonderful idea. I'd take it and die with everything I had lost if I wanted to play a secret character. Like, one of those sci-fi type deals where when the secret agent dies. His apartment and him all go up in flames, incinerating all evidence of his existence. Who?

That doesn't make sense. If you saw someone on the wholist and you couldn't locate their eq you would know they were the one cloaked. There is no way this can actually _hide_ who a character is if they are a known player. There is no coded way to do that.

What can be done is to increase polymorph time so people can actually disguise themselves and be unknown.

If every cabal had access to the same spell, create sekrat cloak, all producing the same exact cloak. It would be harder to identify the one cloaked guy out of the many.
