    Okay, recently, I think I've been seeing some of the newer members log on, and then they never log off. The way were currently set up, if you don't log off, your name will remain on the bottom of the screen. I remember one time when I came on once about every hour, and everytime I came on, the member was on. His profile showed no activity besides being online. So I thought that maybe we could add in an automatic log out timer. The website can read when you move a page right? So why don't we make it so that if we haven't switched a page in, oh, say half an hour then it automaticcally logs us out. I'm pretty sure theres not something like this already, just tell me and we can get rid of this.

So, good idea, or not?

um I never log out
ever.
and it logs me out as soon as i get off the site, I've checked, because I was worried about this
but nope!
logs me out.

I know, it does the same for me. But what kind of Browser are you useing? (Firefox, Explorer? Etc., Etc.) Because I know that theres been a few tiimes when they didn't log out, but they left.

firefox

Laaaammeee

I don't wanna get logged out after 30 mins (if I'm say sleeping....).  Maybe just have it remove you from the who'se online counter... (Which I think its supposed to do already)

Yeah, eventually it must log people out automatically. 

But you're right- it seems like some people show up, aren't active at all, but stay in the who's online bar for a really long time.

I'm pretty sure that if I close my browser window but don't actually shut down Firefox, it keeps showing me as online.

But really: Who cares?  It gives me a warm feeling inside to see newbs remaining around :D :D

Even if its not true :(

lol.  see the newbie forum thread "new here!" for further details. . .

Automactic Logout Sux!

I don't think auto-log out is necessary, foo'! I mean...3j...
