Use of the site

Also, I would like to understand how the forum views and handles "invisible users" and "guests?" What exactly are these designations? :chin:

When on the Blitz website, there are basically three categories that people can fall into: Visible Members, Invisible Members, and Guests.

Invisible Members are Club members who elect to make themselves "Invisible" and will not be shown "online", even though they are. Invisible members are only invisible to other regular members. A Club Moderator can always see who is online, whether or not a member has elected to be "Invisible".

To be able to make yourself invisible, follow these steps.

First, you need to select "User CP"


Secondly, you need to select "Edit Options"


Third, you need to select "Hide me from the Who's Online list"


Fourth, you need to make sure and select "Update Options" towards the bottom of the page.

As a side note, I have noticed that from time to time, if I happen to edit one of my CP settings, I will automatically get put in "Invisible" status even though I did not manually select it. I am sure that this has happened to other Club members as well, without them being aware of it. I'm am not sure if it is a bug that causes this to occur or something else.

So now, when you look at the bottom of the forum page in the "Who's Online" section, and you see your screen name with a (*) asterisk behind it, you now know that you are a "Invisible Member". :)

Tell me you're pulling my leg....please.
