Another idea from the scalp of moi. What about a little lightbulb beside a persons username. If it is on, the person is online, and if the lightbulb is off, the person is offline. Any comments?
 
You know on some forums they have a notification that says "Online Now" to inform fellow members that a member is online. Lets use both of us as an example. Your posting around and stuff, and you want to know if I'm online. You look at my 'lightbulb' and if the lightbulb is on, you know I'm online. But if the lightbulb is off, you know that I'm offline.
 
i think this idea is a another great one. most fourms that i go to have some sort of online notifcation under the avatar.
 
There is currently a mod for this (with the lightbulb image). It's the online/offline mod. I'm sure if the TRMK staff wanted it, they would have installed it by now.

I have nothing against it being installed, though.
 
why not replace the lgihtbulb by a spinning MK logo (fitting the theme), or a flasy MK logo.... or somthing else MK related....flashy.....thing....
 
how about somethin like an mk character, if the person is online the guy is stood up, ready to fight, but if he is offline the dude is KOed on the floor
 
yeah this is a cool idea. like if your guy is spine ripped, your offline, and if your guy is spin ripping, your online, or some other fatality.
 
I think it is a good idea though, you see it on alot of different forums.

Yeah, sure it is easier to check the index, but what if you just want to quickly check without losing your thread and stuff. Just my idea.


PS: First person to get to 2000 posts. Woot.

Edited because Khaos is fussy :P

The button screams:"USE ME". :roll:
 
first off, congrats for being the first to get to 2000 post, and second that wouldnt be a bad idea. i know we can see whos on and whos not but it would be a hassle going back and forth the index to see whose on and whose not. and also, i think it should be like a skull rotating with flames coming out of the eye sockets when that person is on and it stops rotating and has no flames when the person is off.
 
It's a good idea, I may look into that when we have to do a whole re-write of our mods for phpBB 3 when it's done.

Before that the new TRMK front page will probably have the ability to show all users online.

Phpbb Olympic? Hah! Chances are they're never going to release it. I bet 2 will get up to at least 2.27.0 before their boards are virtually "glitch free". And the look they're taking is just sad, the security/look is basicly IPV V1.2/3. :(
