106 Members online in the last 60 seconds:

http://mehwhatever.com/profile/pics/screenmzm.png

If you count the list, you'll find 106 names on the list.

HelpDesk and WebSpider are included on that list.

HelpDesk is a generic admin account that no one actually accesses, but it's just a name people can send mail to so the assistants can read and provide help.

WebSpider is a bot.

Not counting HelpDesk and Webspider, there were 104 other names on that list. Of those 104 names remaining, 45 are NPMs.

43% of the players online at that moment were NPMs. Forty-three percent.

Does that seem like a high 'fake account' number to anyone other than me?

Can they be included in the 60 seconds list, but not included in the count of online members? Could we keep the list the same, but at the top have "XX people online in the past 60 seconds." to give a more accurate representation of how many PLAYERS are online?

Why don't you simply color the NPM names like crewleaders and staff members?

My vote is to make them pink.

And sparkle-y.

Squishy is M2 out yet?

It's already getting included into M2, but we just can't dedicate the resources to making the change on M1 considering that every hour we spend on this version, pushes back M2 even further.

Guessing not T-Man.. Since we're still using M1 interface and there's been no announcement of M2 being released...

In answer to the opening post, No it doesnt bother me in the slightest.

I don't frequently spend mins opening pages for every person on the 60 second list to check whether they are a npm or a player..

Well, I guess I should consider myself 'burned', eh Po?

Except I didn't ask if it bothered you. Nor do I care.

I asked if it seemed like a high number, and Squishy came out and explained why the numbers come out like they do.

Thanks for trying though. Next time you try to insult someone, try reading first. ;)

beard is an NPM

No, beard is a fucking legend, and the son of the great Bearderus. 

Let's get our facts straight.

If I was you, I would show more respect to a Demigod.
