Why do we allow invisible members here at TBF?
I can see that sometimes it is necessary for mods to be invisible when they are trying to clean threads and do not want to be disturbed; however, sometimes I wonder if regular members just want to take advantage of the benefits invisibility offers to post and run in order to avoid contact with members.
Edit: oooh, 4 invisible ones are now online here.

There is no particular reason for allowing or disallowing members to be invisible to the "Who's Online" list.

It's a conspiracy and the Latins are behind it.

Speaking as one of those 'invisible entities' -- I think that this 'cloaking device' (LOL-can you tell that I liked Star Trek the Next Generation?!?  ) is a good option for those members of good standing who simply want to be incognito or who prefer some anonymity and privacy as to what they are doing. I personally find nothing wrong, suspicious, devious, or otherwise anomolous in taking advantage of this particular program's option. Regards, Alice

It's a conspiracy and the Latins are behind it. So that's why none of us ever noticed the Latins before.  They were hiding behing Alice's invisible cloak.  Living in Wonderland?

I prefer the termonolgy of seen and unseen.

Dear Charles: My Latin confreres have just instructed me to inform you that we cannot divulge what we are up to at this time. We are wary of nosy Easterners always trying to break up our little secrets!  Amado aka Madz

oooooh. Now that we know about those "unseen" members, they have increased to five. Maybe it bothers posters that really do need a hobby or something else to be concerned about. Why I chose to use the non-visible mode is my right and I so chose it as a member and it was option available. All of this is really not any of your business is it? Or are you now trying to make decisions for the forum administration?
