Invisible mode

Many of you are in "invisible mode" and perhaps don't know you are. If you see an asterisk next to your name in the "ONLINE USERS" window on the home page, you're in invisible mode. When the switchover to the new software occurred, I was somehow switched over to invisible.

-To change this, go to site map (upper right hand.. last tab)

-select "Edit Options" (under user control panel)

-and the first thing you'll see is a window entiled "Login and Privacy"

-The first selection is "Use invisible mode" ...deselect the box.

Now we can see you...assuming that's what you want.

you know, I never knew why some people got that asterick and other's didn't. I'm so embarrassed...

I have the option of turning off invisible mode. You guys think that I should do that, so that no one can be invisible. I personally don't see alot of reason for it.

Yeah, turn it off. I don't see any reason why someone would want to hide. Or at least make it off by default with the option to 'hide' if you want to.

I kinda like my little asterisk. Reminds me of a poem I once heard:

Little Suzy went out to skate,
On the ice so brisk.
All her friends though she was nuts,
Her little *.
