Possibly
Although I think the problem is shit threads are at an all time high. But the more that get deleted the more that seem to pop up again , so if people want a forum filled with shit then I guess it's up to them.

I was wondering how many people are put off by not knowing who's online for sure.
There's like 50 logged on due to the extended time limit, when most of them are long gone.

I dunno... it just seems more like a message board these days, as opposed to the real time community feel it had when the logged on time was less and you knew who you were interacting with.

I find it off putting.

I've tried, just doesn't seem like it's getting much attention. Or no one wants to talk to me.

I find it off putting as well. There's no telling how often I would click the "whose online" link to see what everyone was doing. And I too like knowing who all actually is online.

I find it extremely off putting, one of the top reasons why I hardly post anymore

So how about it Admin?

Can you change 'active users' to how it used to be?

Namely, a shortening of the time an inactive member remains online.
I think a lot more members would post if they knew they would get an immediate response from someone they knew would reply in real time, if they knew for sure that member was active.

I'd also like to see the return of the members list and 'who's online'.

Admin...you really need to make changes!

And a bit of communication wouldn't do any harm either.
