When I PM someone and get no response, I sometimes look at their profile to see when they were last active. I was just on someones and it said last active 8:33. It is now 9:32, does it take an hour to take them offline? Also is there a way to make update like right when they go offline?

No sometimes people just leave them selves signed on to tcc and leave the computer up. Then it would still say there on but they wouldnt be active.

I didn't think about that, I don't sign myself out I usually just shut the window of my internet. I think that takes me offline.

Yeah if you click out of the internet it logs you off but if you just minimize the internet it leaves you on

Actually guys, even if you just close the browser without actually clicking log out, you will show as logged in for 1 hour. The php code, which is what TCC's boards are written in, has no way of knowing when you simply close your browser.

No matter what you do, if you don't click "Log Out", you will show as logged in for 1 hour. Hope this helps.

Oh ok, thanks michael

That's what I was thinking. But I knew it would sign us out at one point.

you beat me to it

this usually comes up.
