OMG, i gotta get a life.  I never logout does that make me stay online all the time.  Cause I basically just leave the window open while I work or do something else.  I wish I could get back those 75 days.

No offense 240,but I have a very different definition of the word "work" than you do.

Let me summarise what I said in that novel I just posted.

If you leave the window open, getbig is not communicating with your browser, absolutely nothing is happening in the background.  Getbig only talks to your computer when you ask it to give you a page or a thread.

i had a feeling that's what was going on, rocket. so if i make a post on here, then leave the page open and come back six hours later, when i refresh that's going to add 6 hours onto my online time, right?

IF I understood him correctly..NO.

IF I understood him correctly..NO.

"As I've said several times here, the time online function is almost certainly an amount of time incremented onto your time online everytime you refresh a page (that is, everytime you refresh one and a login is performed).  The reason I say this is because the system tracks how many people are online at one time which is actually just how many people have logged in in the last 30/60 mins."

it looked like he was saying that it takes the time you logged in and then increments it based on your refresh. i only ask because my online shot up from about 19 hours to over five days in what seemed like about five days, but i sure as hell haven't been just sitting here reading the board nonstop for that long.

Based on my average daily post count on my current account, multiplied by 365, multiplied by the 8 years I've been posting here, I have 28,791 posts! 



Worship me, bitches!

well i might not have understood either. just trying to see if there's an error in my logic.

Its possible thats what it is but what I actually meant that I believe it adds 30 or 60 minutes on to your online time every time you log in.  Of course it doesn't add more if you've already been credited for those minutes.  But theoretically the time online would increase the most if you regularly checked getbig every 30/60 mins. 

So in your case you log in at a time, get 30/60 mins added and then 6 hours later you do the same, you get another 30/60 minutes.

The value of the amount of minutes that are added on is almost certainly directly the same value that is used to calculate "most users online" which is somewhat of a bs concept as there has never been 1000 concurrent people browsing the board.. only 1000 people active in a certain timeframe.

perhaps you are credited 30 seconds for every 'refresh' action.  That is my estimate - that it adds a # of seconds every time a page is opened or you F5

I sincerly doubt that.  Consider that that requires multiple calculations every refresh.  On a high volume board that would kill it.

As far as I could tell from the SMF board (the actual support board) I am correct.
