I have just been looking around the site and spotted that there are seven people logged in. 6 Registered and 1 Hidden.
How do you become hidden? Is there a secret network of pseudo members?
How many of our members are actually hidden?
The mind boggles Shocked

I've never tried it but presumably in your Profile under Preferences, you select 'Yes' for "Hide your online status".

Great suggestion, that should be default info.

Some of the posters are totally anonymous, no idea what GPS they are talking about - Garmin what?
Also whether they are in the UK or Swaziland would make a big difference.

That would certainly help!

Yes. If they use the Location field in their profile, that will be displayed in the column to the left of their post. However, if people put too much info into their signatures, there will be no room for the posts Laughing There is actually a limit ! Have a look here.

Just to add, maybe the forum layout could have extra fields (e.g. GPS model) added to the left column? Darren?

Tell him to make it big enough for my next (fourth) one. And tell MikeAlder he can't use it. Twisted Evil
