time online
 

I'm sure many opf you have already noticed this, but I just want to make sure. On vBulletin forums, does your username appear on the online list for about 15 min even after you've signed off? It does for several people i have noticed. whenever I chat with Leto on AIM and he signs off, his user name still liongers on the online list. So please explain.

I know on other forums it reads "Users active in the last 15 minutes". It may be the same on OWF.

Yeah, when I've left the forums and go on it whiles logged off, my name is still there, so it is probably the fifteen minute thing.

It gives you a little bit of leeway in case you decide to return quickly, or if you log off accidentally.

It has saved me before when my computer has crashed and I was worried that when I logged back on I would lose track of which threads I'd visited and which I hadn't.
