"Hide online status" reset?

I’m exposed!

I used to have hidden whether I was viewing the site. But now my online status shows up like everyone else. Was something reset so all of us shy folk will need to change our settings again?

Yeah, I mentioned this to Goose Egg in another thread somewhere. The bloody Member Center setting seems to have a life of its own. A bit odd, but no biggy, I guess. You can choose to hide your online status when logging on, anyhow.

It seems to work for me. If you choose the two options ‘log on automatically’ and ‘hide me this session’ it hide you everytime. For example, I’m online right now, but nobody can tell. ha ha.

I’m over here now.

True, but prior to the revamp you only had to choose the Member Center “hide” option once, and you were automatically invisible thereafter. Now, it switches to “off” - seemingly by default - every time you log in (or out?). The Member Center option has become redundant.

If it was, it wasn’t intentional - let’s cruise phpbb.com for some answers (solutions). If we figure out a way to make the Hide option stick, I’ll put in asap.

I find it annoying. I guess it would be more of an issue if you had hardcore porn threads, which sadly you don’t.

I like being exposed :yay:

Could admin please do something about this. Having to go into one’s profile every bloody time to change it is getting wearisome.

Thanks,

Bob

Pretty please with cherries on top.

Why would a moderator want to be hidden ? Aren’t they supposed to be available to help others ?
But please hide TpeBob, I won’t want to look at his ugly mug :wink:
