Title: Users online list
Post by Vulcan on Mar 5^th, 2005, 3:28pm

Not anything important really but I have noticed that when someone logs off (or just surfs away) from the forum they stay in the online users list for ages when they aren't actually here.

How can I know this I hear you say.... well my better half, Kerry (ScorpioWidow) was online using the laptop and I am on the main PC, she shut down the laptop over 10 minutes ago but still appears in the list.
;D

Just an observation...

hi george

is she/you using the 'always logged in' box? i don't use it and have to log back in when i move from the main pc to the laptop. although it sometimes times out (360 mins).

Yeah on this (main PC) I am always logged in, on the laptop Kerry is always logged in. It just sets a cookie on the machine which means when you fire up either one of them you don't need to log on.

Kerry normally always uses the laptop, it just seems convenient for it to log in auto.

Back now. Not sure if I disappeared from the list or not.

But anyway, here's another question about this list.... what priority is there to it? I mean, on my screen I always seem to be listed as the first. But its not in alphabetical order.

Any ideas?
We're currently listed like this:
6 Guests, 9 Users
Paul B, gaz01gaz, derekne, ren, ScorpioWidow, Highlander, SaveTheNight, Mrs Phuturephantasy, waders

But were constantly changing positions... except me :-/
