Yep! I’m just curious. 🙂
thought so, On here I just log in and stay in. If I miss something I can always catch up with comments later. as for AOL or Yahoo, I hide because I don’t want people I don’t know contacting me to have sex. 😕

No one said YOU were retarded. I am entitled to think its retarded to hide your online status and post. Defeats the purpose of hiding your online status, IMO. My comment was not directed at you.
clueless, here… I didn’t even know you could hide 😳 I just log in and stay in ’til I leave; but I duck in and out a lot…

I’ve never been “hidden” before…I guess I’ve never really had a reason so be, since I’m only logged in when I’m actually browsing the forum.
eh.. I did it once to keep someone from bugging me…
and have just been too lazy to turn it back….
oh well… 😆
I am often hidden because I’m not always at the computer, I leave the room for my son sometimes and it can take a long time. Or sometime I undertake something else away from the computer and only come back to refresh every once in a while. So I wouldn’t want to be online and go away then during that time a member tries to contact me by PMing. I wouldn’t want them to get the wrong idea and think I don’t read their PM or choose not to respond. 😉
Good reason!!! That’s why I do it sometimes (the leaving and not wanting people to think I’m not answering them part). 🙂
Frozen, you are sooooooo lazy!!! 😛 🙄
I’ve always wondered why the member names of people that are online (at the bottom of the page) are in different types, I figure I’m always in bold letters ’cause I pay the bills, but what do the other types of letters designate? I guess I could ask Snap…

That’s because you have moderator privileges. Italic names are those that are hidden from others, bold is yourself, and normal is everyone else.

My art: featherdust.comI never think to hide myself. I sign in when I want to post. Otherwise I just don’t sign in. Of course there are times I forget to sign out. (I don’t spend all that long on here. It’s mostly fly in check things out and leave. 😆 Boy, it’s not fun being the only one in the office but, this way I do get hours.)
Doesn’t the forum automatically log you off if you’re not active for a certain length of time? Or does that vary from computer to computer?
