No, I've had people do that, too, and it's very annoying. I'm sure I've done it, now that i think about it.

Gotcha, I just can't imagine anyone rude enough to ask why you are doing whatever while your here (except if you're just giving a close buddy a hard time).

I'll let this one go...each to his own...that's what makes MB fun and free.

I had no idea going "invisible" would quizify anyone (that's totally my new word), or make anyone think it's strange that I do it. I don't think anyone was asking me "to be rude" really it was a good friend at the time. I just left it that way... 'cause, I don't know, I guess I'm a party wallflower???

I'll make myself visible then. Then you can all see when I am reading Disneyland threads, and trip reports, and who I am PMing.

Shhhhh, we have to be invisible about it.

I don't think it's strange at all, I just wondered why people go invisible. I'm sorry if you thought this was aimed at any one person, it honestly wasn't.

I hear ya, no, I was just replying to gingles b/c he said he'd "let this one go...each to his own..." I just never thought it would quizify anyone. I have no idea who else goes invisible but I was really the only person answering, I didn't think it was directly aimed at me.

Oh, good. I didn't post this to upset anyone, I just really wondered why people use that option. I hadn't thought of the reason you gave so I'm glad I asked.

hehe, no problemo. Not upset at all, people have asked me before why I'm invisible*. So I am sure there are others out there that wonder why people use that option. More than happy to share.

*: Hey wait... people ask me a lot of things.

Alright, I really AM going invisible 'cause I am going to bed.

[lovemysons]

Well this is news to me. I didn't even know it was an option.

Like, I post an answer to someone's question and they totally overlook it and then someone else posts essentially the same answer and the person who asked goes gaga over that wonderful answer. Childish I know, but that's how I disappear because I seem to be thin air around here anyway...

OMG, I need to see Dr. Phil

I know what you mean but I dont go into "invisible mode", I will just lurk.


I do tend to only post to people that I know on here or whatever, Iam stranger shy! Iam the wallflower at the party too!

And this may sound funny to you but I use the "Who's Online" as a screensaver so I dont get logged out of MB!
For the most part I have the tv running while Iam on here and if I want to walk away to watch tv for a few minutes I will go to the "who's online" page so I dont have to re log in when I get back to the computer!
I HATE when that happens! lol

I don't know, I guess it probably doesn't really matter any more 'especially 'cause I seem to pop on an off in such short spurts. But anyway, that's why.

OMG!!! I can't believe that!!!
Iam always "visible" here but on an old board I used to be a member of, I went into invisible mode along with some of my friends because we used to get flooded with PMs from newbies with annoying questions!

Interesting. I use that page very often but not because I get kicked out of MB. I have never been kicked out. As a matter of fact, I don't think I have signed out of MB since 2004. I am always on because I am too lazy to log on.
