    I'm guessing Gally has changed the settings

    Specifically how long you have to be inactive before you're knocked off the browser list.

    Before, you just had to turn away for a second and you were excluded so it looked as though no one was browsing. Now, so long as you've heard of the BBS you're considered an active user (well, used the board in the last two hours).

    Definitely makes it look busier though. If only it were.

    No

    I miss more people posting. I miss it being really busy. But I don't miss him.

    Missing Roundsman would be like missing diphtheria after recovering.

    Re: I'm guessing Gally has changed the settings

    Yes you are correct. I upped the login time out so people stay logged in longer. Probably gone too far the other way ;)

    Re: I'm guessing Gally has changed the settings

    Do I remain logged in if I've closed the browser window?

    Because I have it set to remain logged in and I just open the bookmark, read the site and then close browser without logging out of the site

    Same here. I ticked the remember box and I never get logged out even when I close the browser.

    Re: I'm guessing Gally has changed the settings

    Right. Must admit I seem to find myself logging in quite a bit which is what made me think that there was issue with this. Does anyone else find this?

    It's been a long time since we've seen him! Or his bass guitar related alter ego!

    I've only ever logged in once

    When it changed to this new board I ticked the 'remember me' thing and I've never had to log in again.

    Ok I've changed the logout time back as it's obviously not a problem

    and in time honoured schoolboy tones...

    Made you look!

    In all seriousness though, get yersens into chat come kick off. It works well during the match. Last couple of weeks nobody's been in there.
