whosonline would be a great feature so you could see at a glance who was around
I think this is a great idea. It would just be all around helpful.
It is a cool feature but sometimes you don’t want people to know you are online either? As long as you could turn it off?
The government silly… (Ba ha ha ha)
I like the way you think!
I also agree if we do implement a online indicator please make sure we can disable it.
Following me around would be very boring
Sure , that’s why you want to be incognito!

[/quote] Yikes, I would feel stalked I want lurker mode included
yeah okay it was a creepy request that wasnt thought out very well…
No, not creepy at all. If you read the definition each of these internet behaviors has a purpose. Some people are just shy, other people want to know who is reading their stuff. My only point is each user should have a choice in how they are seen and understand the consequences of turning on and turning off such features.
I think it’s a great idea, it’s nice to see familiar people online that you have spoken to before, you may have a specific question and you know the specific person who will have that specific answer sometimes.
It’s been discussed a lot on the forum software’s site… It doesn’t seem like they would find a presence indicator useful…
The term “lurk” can be traced back to when it was first used during the 14th century.[7] The word referred to someone that would hide in concealment, often for an evil purpose.
That’s me 100%
I also go by about 100 different names on this forum, who’d you think won the last 4 giveaways from heavengifts?
Ha! I love that.
