Does anyone use the View Online function?

Post by Anime Kitten » Tue Aug 16, 2016 12:07 pm

Sometimes when the forum is a ghost town, I like to check who's online doing what. Sometimes I use it just to see what everyone's up to. I definitely use it on Saturday nights after Super.

But enough about me. I was curious to know if anyone else ever uses it. I'm the only one who is ever marked with "Viewing who is online".

I can count on my hand how many times I've used it, so yeah, I use it very rarely.

I mostly just check the "New Posts" section so I can post in active threads.

I view it at least once every time I'm logged in. For some reason, I just find it fascinating to see what sections of the forum people gravitate to. I've noticed patterns with certain members over the years.

Back when i just joined here, i used to do this every time i log in, but after some time of not doing it i forgot where it is and just assumed the administrators removed the function for some reason. Up until i saw this topic. :|

I typically use it daily, and sometimes more than that. Although it's kinda my job to spy on everyone and see what y'all are up to. :D

I believe it was an awful contributor with the worst posts on the entire site. Something like Ban... shoe? Sho! Bansho! Bansho...64! Yes, it was Bansho64!

Super's airing right now, but the forum's surprisingly quiet. I wonder why that is.

Probably because most of the people are currently watching it live, watch when the episode ends.

I have a random question, thought I'd post here instead of the Forum Upgrade thread.

In the View Online function, what's the difference between "Viewing member profile" and "Viewing member details"?

I think "viewing member profile" means that you're looking at your own profile, while "viewing member details" means that you're viewing another member's profile. I'm not 100% certain though.

I've always looked down at the bottom of the front page of the forum to see who's online whenever I visited, but I've never clicked on the "view online" button before.

Looking at it, I saw a few guests were "Viewing member profile", so it may be the other way around. Maybe Mr. Hujio could help us. :think:
