Real-time usage vs. inflated usage
Not to get too nit picky about this but I noticed when I log into powdermag even for a few seconds my username shows that I'm on the forum for more than a half hour after I log out.
I like the real-time users display here better than the delayed (inflated) display over there. It's kind of annoying to leave a message for someone thatyou think is online and they really left a half hour ago.
Also I can see why they are doing it that way. It makes the total usage look higher over there than it really is.
It's interesting to observe the little things going on with allof this.

Actually, it's just set on the default refresh rates for the script. I just set mine to resfresh more often.
It's one of those features that you probably wouldn't screw with unless you knew whatt it did...
