I don't want Elliquiy to seem -too- huge...

Thoughts?

I kinda like it.  Any way to make it clickable instead of always visible?  It's nice to see if member X was on today yet...y'know?

Please do.  It eats up too much space on the bottom of the page.

Please!

When exactly does 'today' begin and end? Is there a reset, or local time? I find it too confusing, really. 'Online now' is enough for me.

i like having the users currently online, but the one that just says who was online at any point in time kind of bugs me to be honest  C:-)

I agree with Greenthorn, it is a nice feature and I really liked it, if you could make it collapsible then those that don't use it can hide it (like those of us who don't use the shout box hide that on the top of the screen)

I agree with GT about the users online. It's nice to see who is on. :)

I also agree with Cherri that the huge chunk of who was on today really is an eye sore. :)

To summarize you agree with Dawg that you would like the feature but only want it viewable when you want to use it (Keep it an make it collapsible)

Is that an accurate statement.

Told you, Veks. :P

I would like if it was in a separate collapsible 'window' from the Info Center, directly underneath. Perhaps by default, keep it collapsed?

Yes I agree with Dawg and Caeli that a collapsible window is a good idea.


And ... I also agree with Cherri -grins-

I'm in the minority; I like it (because I can stalk without checking profiles... *coughs*).

Collapsible is alright though, and it doesn't necessarily have to be on the main page (i.e. visible before you are logged in).

And then there are those of us who are neutral. I think because I seldom actually end up scrolling that far down without seeing something I need/want to check, which then leads me to click away from the main page anyway.

As far as I'm concerned it can go. I never use it. Same goes for 'users active in last 60 minutes' too.

I don't care for it, I think it takes up too much space and is rather pointless. But the Active in last 60 minutes is my lover, and please don't remove that.

Wouldn't be upset to see it go... don't think I've used it so far.
