You are a cool guy but it kind of creeps me out a bit and is the reason why i decided to appear offline all the time its a bit weird.

I'm sure someone asked him this once though, and he said something like that's where his main page is set to :s

Raph made a thread about this a few months ago, Arista has like 6 desktop computers, he keeps one tab on "Who's online" and never exits it.
I agree it's weird though. D:

Ha.. funny you mention - I've noticed this for weeks too!!!
When I open up tibbs, I usually have a look to see who is online as there are posters whose posts I enjoy reading and will often add to the same thread due to shared interests, sometimes it's a quicker way than reading through all the latest thread titles (quicker way of seperating what interests me as a lot of what's posted, doesn't hold that much interest for me).
I did wonder the same thing about Arista - but put it down to perhaps that being the last page they had checked and hadn't closed down their browser, whilst they were away doing something else.
Sorry Arista, but I voted for it being a weird thing to do - stalking and keeping track of people online for such lengths of time...surely isn't healthy!

You misunderstand - I don't think it's creepy - I think that tracking it for such a lengthy time period and daily is weird - that's not quite the same thing as creepy. slightly stalkerish and not altogether healthy IMHO - hey it's your life and all that - you could have very good reason for doing it and that's your entitlement!

I'm not bothered if you watch me - if I was, I'd not be part of public forum! It's your life and you're entitled to do with it as you please..... ... but that doesn't mean that some of us will still think it's an odd thing to do.
some people drink beetroot juice daily - that's their choice, but that doesn't stop me from having my own opinion on it and thinking that's also an odd thing to do.
And you are correct: it is a function that is available on this forum and you chose to use it as you see fit. I don't think anyone is saying you shouldn't - I think some simply find to do so for such a length of time, that's the part that some find strange.
It would be a hell of a boring world if we were all the same Arista.
The only thing you can be seen doing is looking at a thread or "searching forums" or "viewing user profile", stalking seems a bit of a strong word :laugh:
Having said that I do appear offline :p

Yes its there to be used.

I don't think there is any question over it being a problem more that the thread is discussing having it as an option available used to great extent. As this thread had shown, it is a function and therefore, a topic that some have shown interest in - by way of how the function is used by you (and others such as myself), and the reasons why...... and subsequently, the opinions of fms on it's usage rate.
Hardly stalking.. get a grip

Arista, why even bother responding to such rude and intrusive questions about your forum use? It's nobody else's business to tell you how many hours you should be online, or to comment on your lifestyle in any way.
