I've spent way too much time on this forum, as you all know, yet I keep discovering new functionality. If you click "Who is Online" at the bottom of the forum page, it shows you where on the site each person is. I had no idea you could do this. Am I just incredibly unobservant, or are there other people who didn't know about this?

I have never bothered to click on that link until just now. Pretty cool.

Guest must have a lot of browser windows open.

By the way, what do you suppose this symbol is supposed to represent? It looks like the end of a branch from some kind of multi-colored fruit tree. :-?

I think you can become invisible though by altering your profile. So you cant answer the question, am I here?

Is there anything the RF can't do?

This is why I always hide my status - I don't want anyone to know I'm hanging out in Political.

This is a privacy of my invasion.

Neat-o.
Looks like Scoot! and Anonymouse each had private messages. :P

I keep my status hidden.
Otherwise I'll get too many chicks bugging me.
I've got work to do.
On political.

Look two lines under "Make a Suggestion". Big bold clickable "Who is online". Right under your nose (which is why none of us have ever seemed to see it before).

Wow, I feel like a voyeur.

Well, not really.

I've seen the words before but never realized it was a link.

I noticed the same thing! I almost posted it, but got scared.

I went there to try and figure out what I'm doing. It turns out I'm "Viewing who is online."

Vern Schillinger was viewing a PM. I didn't send him one, did you?

I also noticed that 3rookie, boognish, cnys, dorp11, gnash, Hagbard Celine, john, Mel, monarch, Supersonic, what_the_!@#$, Guest, Guest, Guest, Guest, Guest, Guest, Guest, Guest, Guest, and Guest were all viewing the Forum Index. Come on people, pick a forum and go read the messages! It's not that hard! Ok, so some of you are in chat and are not really reading all the categories. You're excused.

Hi everyone,

This is my first time posting, so be kind! I heard that someone has noticed I'm frequently online to check PMs, but I don't post. That's because I like to stay in touch with my husband, jets fan, throughout the day and it's a good way to maintain some privacy while I'm at work (no snoopy IT people reading private messages). Anyway, that's my story! :D I didn't think I'd get "caught," though! :oops:

A while ago, I wrote (http://actuary.ca/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=10748&start=25):

My cat's name is alleycat - alley for short.

Does that explain her handle?

Hey, alleycat! Have you seen some of the crazy stuff your husband posts over in the Sports forum? Did you know he likes the New York Jets? You should read some of that stuff sometime.

Check out the Junk Drawer, too. I can't recall in which thread, but I'm pretty sure he was talking badly about you over there. He may have posted it under his "Mr. Grim" ID. :D
