you know that red dot by a user's name on their profile? is that supposed to determine if someone is online or not? if it is then i feel it is very inaccurate, i have never seen it green on mine when i am online, and rarely or almost never on other profiles, im sure they couldn't be offline if they just posted a topic in the forums i have tested this

It used to be there to indicate users were online - it would be green - then turn red when they are offline. But due to it causing server lag - the Administrators took it out.

On AG3 there will be an online/offline feature, a new and improved one. Read here.

The dot isnt bothering anybody and it would just be a waste of time to get rid of the red dot

how would you know anyone's point of view? it would just be nice for something that is dysfunctional,to be out of the way.

I mean that the dot isnt causing enough of a general problem to be removed. the administrators have more important things to worry about than a harmless red dot
