	Currently Active Users only shows 14 users Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

When I click on the 'Currently Active Users' link on the forum main page I get a list containing only the first 14 registered visitors in alphabetical order................

how can I see the rest of them ?

I honestly care as well.

Markos talked about only showing the last 20 people to have loaded a page. Fifteen is fine for me, but they're obviously the first fifteen in alphabetical order as it stands now, not the last fifteen to have opened a thread.



Markos, could you please change it so it works the other way? Thanx!

And it takes so long to load the first 14 alphabetically. How bout the last 14 to actually do something? Or just scrap the feature.

WHY do you want to keep tabs on what people are doing?

People should be allowed to post without anyone noticing.

To post? Anyone reading the thread you're posting in is going to notice... unless you want people to ignore your posts, that is...

I think you meant that people should be able to lurk without anyone noticing...

I meant it as you initially stated. Hence the cute smilie.

I was implying (obviously not very well ) two things, that some people say things that are often ignored, whilst others post spam and hope that it is not noticed.

can you not think of anything else to say ?

quote: WHY do you want to keep tabs on what people are doing?

1. when one of the firaxian is around I'd like to know wich threads they're reading
2. if I post a thread I'd like to know how many people read it
3. when I 'm around it's good to know how many people are browsing the same forum as I do, and thus I might know if I can expect an answer to my possible questions or reactions to my posts soon.

Pherhaps I'm ignored by Markos...................
usually it doesn't take that long for him to answer......
whatever, like DanQ mentioned lately, they got a life as well

The big difference though is that its not just Big Brother watching, its everyone on the site.

You have no privacy, but its the same for everyone, even the powers that be. But what need have you for privacy on a site like this?

It's an interesting option to have but you should have the ability to hide your own information if you want to. (Not just a blanket hiding if you are online.)

So we were meaning the same thing after all. Only that you said it earlier.

Why can't it be answered ?
One of the mods / admins could at least say that they don't know.
But there must be an answer.

ie.
- it takes too much resources
- we forgot to add the 'next page' link
- we can only keep track of 14 people
- we don't care
- whatever

I'm nice, I post it in the apolyton forum, wait for an answer.
don't get one, private msg MarkG if he can answer, no answer to the pm no answer in the forum. no problem, they're busy and I'll wait. But I'll keep on bumping, in patience.

	Full PM-box? Change here!

Right now Mike Breitkreutz from Firaxis is online viewing the forums.
I'm curious to death what threads he's reading.
Pherhaps he's just on the Off Topic not caring about anything MP related. Pherhaps he's reading the MP theads.

But he's not in the 'top 14' right now (now it's even top 11)
thus I have no clue.

Ok, if this function isn't going to work, fine. But right now the function seems to be alive, but it doesn't work.

what we can do is all logoff so Mike is the only one around the forums and he MUST for that reason appear in the 'top 14' but something tells me that than there suddenly will be a 'top 0'

anyway, concider this to be another *BUMP*
