Force summoning an online char?

[b0btheball]

I found some theft scents in my house and I want to summon the person. It says he is online but he also doesn't have a hearth fire. I tried summoning him to an alts fire but it said "You cannot summon people there." Then I tried just summoning anywhere and it says, "The perpetrator cannot be summoned." Can I only summon someone who is offline?

Yes, they must be offline.

Yes, they must be offline.

Thanks. That is pretty stupid.

It'll be alot easier to kill when he's offline lol, so I don't see what the problem is.
