I didn't even know that I was hidden, I guess you can unhide in your profile??

In your profile there's a "Hide your on-line status" box. :-)

I thought I would bring this popular issue back up. Some members may of missed it and others haven't seen it...

At certain times members don't want others to know there are on the site, thus you select "hidden." There wouldn't be such a feature if it wasn't at least somewhat popular.

It isn't fair for admins. to know who is hidden. The member is for one reason or another hiding him or herself from others.

Is it really that surprising that members don't want to indicate that they are signed in?

When I am using my computer here at home, I actually have to Login every time and I am always "hidden". When I'm at work, I'm logged in automatically and I'm not "hidden". :-?

Why is it not fair?

IMHO the admins should know who is HIDDEN so that a member can't do something as invisible.

If we don't want members to see us online, that isn't including admins. I couldn't think of another word to use, "fair" came to mind. Sorry about that.

What could a member do "hidden," that a member can do visible?
