Unless my memory is failing, in the past members always had the option of not showing they are online. If so, they would show as a guest if I recall correctly. That is routinely allowed at other forums too.
I always used that option (and was never shown as being online before as far as I recall) as I saw no need to indicate I was online, especially since I do not do chat.
Now there seems to be no actual members counted as guests anymore (at least when I looked the last few times), and I am now shown as being online. I went to change the setting and can't find the option anywhere. Is this a change Gregr has made, requiring everyone to reveal they are online now?
Also, a recent post of mine was deleted (perhaps edited is a better word to use), even though as far as I know the post did NOT violate any of the posting policies in any way. It was deleted (or edited) with no notice or explanation given. Another members post which contained my quote was also deleted.
I really do not believe member posts whould be deleted without notice and also with no apparent violation of the forum rules. That post deletion (editing by removing most of the post content) is one of the reasons I reduced my postings here.
