/alert radius

Is it possible to do a /alert radius where the radius is around someone other than yourself, an NPC for example?

Salutations,
It is possible, however we do not do it simply because it is very unreliable. The whole zone does update, but the things out of your los update slower, so alerting around a town gaurd on the otehr side of the zone isn't going to help you that much as your friend and PC may waltz right into town and you won't know it, simply because the client does not recieve an update in the middle....
