Why am I invariably first on the list of people trawling the fora? Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Is it just to me, but whenever I am online at Apolyton, I am always first on the list, without exception? It can't be alphabetical order as no one else in the list seems to be in any kind of order. Why am I number one (without stating the obvious )

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

The name of the poster viewing the list is always shown first. And from looking at it, the rest are shown in the order of when they logged on

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

And I thought that a guy like AI would be intelligent enough to think that up himself. I understood it at once .

This post should win a prize for the most proper use of the smiley .

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Maybe because people people are shown in order of when they last loaded a page, allowing big brother to track them. Then the person him/herself would automatically always be first.
