Could we have something along the lines of an "on-line/off-line" status in place of the "Member since?"
The only way that I would be in favor of such an indicator is if it could be (at member discretion) disabled or opted out of.
Example, if someone (like you) decides to enable it on their profile, it would show either "online" or "off-line" in the relevant field.
If someone else (like me) decides that they do not want their status to be visible (either off or on), they do not activate the feature and nothing displays in the field.
It would allow lurkers to properly maintain their lurking status.
Fair enough. I failed to mention the importance of you guys keeping yourselves "in the shadwos."
But all too often, we experience those moments where we have to go and you sign out, but people still think you're on.
Many a time a PM has been sent and I'm already tucked away, snuggled and asleep.
An online status indicator would help people say "Oh, he/she is offline. I'll talk to them later." Not to mention, we should make it look nice. Something..........fresh.Ice, I see your grammar has permenantly improved, thank you.
Anyway, what you really need is a word from Achronos about how much work this would take. You could message him. Sometimes he replies, sometimes he doesn't. Two days ago I messaged him about a typo in the Halo 2 Vista FAQ, never got a reply and it hasen't been fixed. Oh well. Anyway, you could either do that or he could 'drop by' and give us his wise word.
