Board Status, Hide online status

[RonH]

Occasional looking at who is online, it seems that I am the only registered member who shows up amongst all the bots in this list? Or perhaps only I can see 'me'.

I have changed the Control Panel Setting to hide 'me', logged in again a couple of times but still show up in the online list... what am I missing No comments about grey matter please...

Ah ha, a couple more of us have shown up in the list

I too often don't see many other members on line at the same time as me. I think that just reflects how quiet this forum is. If you look at the list of members and order them by posts:
    https://eileenslounge.com/memberlist.ph ... memberlist
you can see that many of the people with high numbers of posts are no longer around. In other words, I think most registered users are infrequent posters, so the chances of you encountering them are low.

If you log in hidden, you'll see yourself in the Who is online list, but others won't see you.

As Ken mentions, there are far fewer active members than 10 years ago or so. It's not just us - many people now use social media and AI chatbots for help with their questions, instead of discussion boards.

If you look at the list of members and order them by posts:

Good morning Ken.
If you return to that list, sort them by Posts (ascending) and skip to pane 44 (well on my system at any rate), what do you surmise?
Cheers, Chris
