You know that "users currently browsing this forum" thing at the top? Does anyone know how that list is organized, because, everytime I go into the Civic forum, I am always the first on the list. But in OT forum, I'm never first.

Actually, I was asking the same question a little while ago, and no one could answer...it's not alphabetical, maybe it's the chronological order that the users came in?

If thats true, then I shouldn't be first in the Civic forum... Maybe it goes by level of coolness, so I am the coolest person in the civic forum.

Lol! That would mean that I'm currently the coolest person in OT :coolguy: :coolguy: :coolguy:

I'd reckon its sorted according to joining date. so if u join earlier before every1 else then you'll be the first. well in the forum that is.

That seems like the best idea yet, and it's almost always correct. I just ran around to a bunch of different forums, and checked the peeps join dates, and they did go in order from first joined to last. However, I've found a few exceptions, such as taranaki, who joined in Dec, before several others who joined in Nov. But for the most part, I think youare correct...explains why I'm almost always first....

maybe your postcount has something to do with it?

Hmm, that seems to be a factor as well, but you have way more than others ahead of you in the list...maybe everything is factored into one and the order compiled from that....

It's random

I think it is the order in which you signed on to the Auto Forums website.
