Looking at the bottom of the page, there isn't anything that says who is logged in and such... I've always seen something like

"In total there are X users online :: Y registered, 0 hidden and Z guests (based on users active over the past 5 minutes)
Most users ever online was x_amount on Mon Dec 10, 2007 5:07 am UTC

After that there is usually a list of currently logged in users. Mods and admins are usually in different colors so we can quickly click on them.

I was wondering why that's missing?

    I've never seen that on here, I assume it was removed as to lessen un-needed hits on the database..

    its not really neccessary. you can use the buddy list to keep contacts you want to access quickly, or just run a username search.

    There's always been a charm to this forum for having that disabled.

    We don't like unneeded cruft. And I always hated forums that had a huge list of current online users listed.

    Mmmm. We don't have this "ZOMG SO MANY PEOPLE" thing that other places do. You could always add up the number viewing, I suppose...

    We already know there's a fuckton of people on this forum, if there wasn't, we wouldn't get so many 504 and 502 errors.

    Jesus Christ! You need a whole other page?

    ==EDIT==

    Jesus Christ! 400 people online?!

    Never mind, that pretty much answers that question.

    Hell, I've seen the main forum list show more than 400 browsing G&T alone at one time.
