A random question about SDN

I have a question, something has been bugging me for a while and I tried to find out without any success.

when you post your thread, on the bottom left corner, there is a button, some people have blue buttons, others have green and some also have warning signs.

what are these?

The button is more like a light. If it is blue/grey/clear, it means a user is offline. If it is green, it means the user is online. If it is red, it means the user is invisible.

Everyone except for you should have the warning signs (you can't report yourself).

Phil, why is your name green? Are you an environmentalist or just Irish ?

Neither really 😛

All the lowly mods-in-training have the green thing. 😳

if the light in red means that you are invisible, why be invisible then

Im guessing its red all the time so it is unknown if you are currently on.

it means ppl can't determine if you are online or not. it just means that as you read it that person could or could not be online. whereas for a green light you know with certainty that the person is logged on.

Actually, I think the button only shows up red on the invisible person's screen; it's grey to everyone else regardless of whether you're online or not.

Something like that! 😀

That does make more sense. I stand corrected. However, some things are a little different for mods. And no, I won't elaborate, sorry! 😀

One does not become a mod without first taking the life of another mod

 

[mshheaddoc]

If you mark yourself invisible you will show up as a "red" dot. You and only you. If someone else is invisible then you will show up as grey/clear and they will show up as grey/clear

Phil has some evil secrets.


He sold out to "mod"-dom. I say we revolt to all mods. Whos with me?

PD: Look at one of your posts. On the left of your screen, you see your name and then "SDN Angel" under your name. Then, under "SDN Angel," you have "5,000+ posts." Then, under that, you have your avatar and "join date." And, finally, under the "join date," you have your button (green right now).

how is a user invisible? we see his skeleton? and don't you think an invisible poster should have been clear (bluish/grayist button)...you know clear=invisible...?
