For years it's come up we'd like to log in without the dot highlighting we are online.
Some of the longer accounts opted out when this was introduced meaning some are opting out and yet most of us can't.
It should be enough that being logged in takes us to the front of searches and what not.
I've got all filters on and looking to meet unticked but I won't allow anyone to message because I'm highlighted as logged in when I just want to read the forum. It's teasing to those doing searches to see x amount logged in and I can understand why they get arsey at no response from messages as most of this site are unaware of the forums.

The downside to that is so many would do it, that the online count would drop dramatically. Which would give the impression of a site with little activity - not good for business. |

Facebook doesn't have a problem with that. I was always logging on there and choosing to look like I'm actually offline. I can't see any problems with this site doing it either. |

Maybe not...on another site we use it still counts the people who are logged in but says "users opted to hide from appearing here" on the online list. |

Ah yes, if that is possible then I agree, that would be a good option to have. |

I wasn't putting it forward as a suggestion, I was more saying your reason may not be the reason why. |

The online counter has been there as long as I've been on here but the now blue online icon is only a recent addition, that I could happily do without. |

Why does hiding your profile not work for you? (my account, privacy, hide profile)

"Understood. We will have a think on this one 
Admin x"
Perhaps an option where it shows 'Last online: Within a week/ day'. -Vague enough to stop people mailing thinking we are online right NOW.
If it didn't give any information at all about when someone was last online, people might be mailing profiles that hadn't been used in months.

You Dont Need to Know, right now |
"Has this been resolved or is it hanging in the ether?"
Admin said 6 days ago that they would think about it, but if they decide to implement this idea it will probably be bundled into the next site update, so it could be some time before the facility is available. |
