Last activity

Why on earth don't I have the option to hide my last active status??? Other people seem to have it since their activity timestamps aren't even visible.

Also, quick question—why can't I add hyperlinks to my signature anymore?

Go into the control panel to adjust your settings; the first thing you'll see is the option for invisible mode. Just check the box and hit save to apply the changes.

The signatures look a little rough right now, but if you tell me exactly what you're looking for, I'll get it formatted up just the way you want it.

That’s not the right way to do it. I spent all day yesterday and today digging through everything, trying to find that specific setting.
The indicator isn't green anymore, but the "last activity" timestamp hasn't budged an inch.
Maybe check with the other mods? Is it possible they pulled that feature while some people still had it enabled, and now it just disappeared for everyone else?
They really ought to fix that or just bring it back... you know, so we're all playing on a level playing field.

Thanks for the offer, but I swap my signature out sometimes, and then the HTML breaks again when I try to save it, so I'll pass.

And why am I capped at reading only 50 posts from other users? Is that some new rule they rolled out? Slika
How am I supposed to track down an old thread from someone now? Google isn't helping, and I can't quite remember the exact details...
Is this limit hitting all the moderators, or just me?

Also, how are we supposed to know if there are any HIV-positive individuals on the USA thread now that they've lifted those restrictions that were in place for years? People are flooding in, and there might be infected users posting stuff that others should probably avoid reading. It feels like the mods over there don't care, or maybe they haven't even realized what's happening. Whatever...
And honestly, shouldn't those infected folks lose their right to privacy if they risk spreading it to others?
If you haven't done anything wrong, you've got nothing to hide.

Oh, it definitely changed! I think maybe you just can't see your own last active status when others are looking at you, even though it still shows up perfectly fine on your own profile.

The limit of 50 recent posts isn't some arbitrary rule we made up; it’s a restriction set directly by the site owner.

As for your last point, I honestly have no idea what you're rambling about. If you've got questions regarding the subreddit, just go ask those moderators directly.

Casey Bennett, there are certain profiles where you can't even see those last 50 posts or the threads they started. How does one actually enable that setting?

Give me an example.

I'll shoot you a message once I track it down again...

Don't bother trying to reach me via private message, because I don't check my inbox.
You’ll have to give me a nudge here first if you want me to actually open my messages.

There aren't any settings to change this, unfortunately; by default, everyone can see a user's last 50 posts. However, you can always use the advanced search tool to track down specific posts from a certain user within a particular sub-forum over a set timeframe.
