i dont know if anyone talked about this before....

but i'm getting really bothered with seeing people's ghosts   what i mean is when someone logs off their username still appears even in the chat thing.  that makes me confused one time even angry at a friend i thought ignored me. is there any way that when someone logs off their username doesnt hang around behind them. please hope you can fix this.

X_____X  besides i think i speak for everyone when i say it can get embarrassing to log in for someone you thought was there and find out it was a ghost and you're all alone 😛
<hope no one saw me last night>

Glitches, Server Side Latency, and being a lazy git like me and just closing the window instead of putting in the quit command can and will cause it.   Even the Board itself only updates the user list every 15 minutes.

why does it take 15 to update the user list??? no wait that cant be right, as soon as i log in my username appears just when i log off it takes forever to disappear. its really bothersome, dont you feel that way too?

or is it impossible to fix?

Edit:  wait a minute i just saw shifty post without having his username appear X_____X   so this username list thing can sometimes hide logged in usuers???

It's not rocket science, it's exactly what it says in the box up top, if you just logged in you logged in right when it updated from the last 15 minutes, if you logged off and it took awhile then that was the 15 minutes wait. It works on it's own clock not on when you show up.

Anyway this entire thread should be a lesson to not jump to conclusions just because someone is or isn't on the user list.

This is just how Yuku works, quirky as it is. XD And with that, locking this now.

I do that! I selected "appear as anonymous" because administrators can. :O I am shy.
