That statistic is tied to whether we have "Show Active Users?" turned on.  We didn't, we do, but probably not for long........

It is a feature not well liked by many, myself included, but until the complaints start rolling in, it's on.

Anyone wanting to "hide" from the active users list, read this thread.
Do not fear your enemies.  The worse they can do is kill you.  Do not fear friends.  At worst, they may betray you.
Fear those who do not care; they neither kill nor betray, but betrayal and murder exist because of their silent consent.

Count me as a complaint. I hated that feature when we tried it once before, and wasn't real happy to see it returned tonight. Just when I was about to post a question/comment, I saw Jennie's post about how to turn it off. I still think it should be off by default.

"Show Active Users?

 Doesn't bother me. Most of the boards I visit have the same feature. wink.gif

As long as my Mac is on and a web browser is open, it usually will have a tab open to TS's.  Doesn't mean I am at that time even surfing the site or even by my computer.  But if I am off work, my Mac is up and running and TS's is in my browser.

Personally, i don't want that feature "on" on this site. whistling.gif Sokay thou.... smile.gif

How about instead of waiting for the clamor to get rid of it.

We get rid of it unless there's a clamor to keep it? dry.gif

 One of the hallmarks of a good administrator is to know when to listen.

Your wish is my command.
Do not fear your enemies.  The worse they can do is kill you.  Do not fear friends.  At worst, they may betray you.

A lot of message boards have this feature and I don't mind it. In fact, I don't see what the big deal is. Unless you are hiding  police.gif  bump.gif
