I had my online status hidden at one point but when I was reviewing my prefs I turned it back on, not sure why I had it hidden to begin with! Maybe I misread the question when I originally joined and set up the prefs. I like to see who is around when I come on, it's weird when you read a post from like one minute ago and the member is not on the list of "who is online". Oh well, I guess some people have their reasons, as some have indicated. i did not realize until I read Canadaka's post that after 5 min of idle time you drop off the list. Sometimes I have 2 or 3 tabs going, often when I'm googling for further info on something I've read here or listening to music on Youtube or home files when the radio is not on here.

Are you a friend and/or co-worker of our Bootlegga?

Yes. No.
I was just joking around.

I don't hide my online status, but every now and then I do the browser cleanup and afterwards if I am just surfing and reading I often don't bother to log in.
