Is "Who's Online" Disabled?
 

There was a new thread in a forum that I know a) is in wrong forum; b) will start a 'debate' that FTers are so well-known for. :rolleyes:

The forum has 3 mods, so I was going to pm one of them to give him/her a heads up, so thought I'd check 'who's online' & see if one of them was, & then pm that person, figuring action would be taken faster vs waiting for them to check at some point during the day.

When I clicked on it, I got a code saying I don't have access to that function, etc. Tried again & same response, so just wondered if who's online had been disabled at some point, it was an error code I received, or if you needed 6,000 posts instead of my 5.5K to access it ( :D )?

Cheers. Sharon

I think it was disabled around the same time search was disabled.

As for trying to find which of the mods were online, if you report the post, all the mods get it.

When faced with a smiliar scenario, I've used the "show forum leaders" tool to see who was on-line, so I could PM them.
