Why ?

I know from experience you can be chatting away to someone, then they stop replying. You're left wondering, have they gone to make a cuppa, or gone to the loo, or have they fallen asleep, as I did last night. You are left wondering do I stop up and wait, or just sign off and go to bed.

You could always send a PM to the person, if they don't reply that's a fair sign that they are no longer on the forum

Re: We're now on a new server :-)

Glad everyone's getting through ok I'm still locked out of Dogsey although I got in briefly last night through my 3G connection.

Re the cookie timeout, I think we have it at a good balance (some of us take longer than 15 minutes to write a post ). If you want to see a more exact time of someone's last activity, just go to the 'who's online' page

http://www.over50sforum.com/online.php

You can even sort it by latest activity

A server is an American waitress.

(or the computer where the website is stored)

That's good

As Chippy mentioned, a server is just a name given for computers that host websites (as well as other things)

The only difference I noticed is that the guy on the parachute thingy is getting closer to that tree.
