I have no idea why that would be of benefit. I've seen that on forums. Why would I care who's online?

Anyway, I suggested something many months ago but the answer was this software is what it is. I was saying it would help immensely if you could see who posted last to a thread. In fact, I kinda got shot down by some people, like "Why are you bitching, we like this place." I wasn't bitching, I was suggesting. I didn't know an upgrade from this version would be a big deal. I love the forum but new versions do have some very helpful features.
