No, I assumed it would show me as Offline when I closed the browser, which is what I do.
You forgot to logout how many times? Page 2

Yes, because whenever they logged back in to check their status, they always show up as online? 
I never ever log out. I think I'm logged in to BSG on 3 different PCs.

This kind of website doesn't really & truely have a real LOGGED-IN state of affairs, at least not like logging into Windows when you power on your puter.
Instead the website sends a 'COOKIE' to your computer & that cookie contains your username and a copy (possibly obfusticated) of your password.
So actually it sort of logs you in automatically EVERY time you view a page or submit and then as mentioned above forgets about you 15 mins later.
Not exactly how our system works, but that's the essence of it I suppose. No need to confuse people with more anaolgies and session malarkey.
Anyone got any yogurt? I need some yogurt. No? I'll go somewhere else then.
Good.
Yes, it was.
