anonymous members?

[jeanthomas]

just curious (maybe I am being really thick?, I am sure someone will tell me!) but on the page 'click here to view the topics' is a list of users currently on line. I understand 'guests' as people who can look but not comment. However I got to thinking about members and anonymous members. Is an anonymous member someone who choses to use a pseudonym, eg Mrs Mouse, or is it someone whose identity is unknown to all? Just wondering what the thinking was behind this option?

No its a member who has not bothered to log on, sometimes if you just want a quick look and do not want to post its just as easy to do this

Oh dear, are we supposed to log off after use, like bank sites etc, I just leave this site logged on. Saves remembering yet another password. Come to think of it if I do get logged off that will be the last you hear from me because I haven't a clue what I used as a password. Here's hoping, do I hear :D

Is n't there somewhere you can find out Sylvia. You could e-mail Mark Bowles and he would let you know (hope so) and then write it down somewhere safe -- thats what i do. The trouble is that there are so many passwords to remember i.e. for the bank, the phone people etc. If you do get blanked you will have to re-join under an alias!:)

Dont worry Sylvia, i will sort you out if you get in trouble. With 588 posts to your name you are a star!

PS. as i have said before, anyone who has lost their password let me know by email and i will send you a new one. :;):

When I access the board I go by 'Favorites', which shows two sites, both of which will get me in.
If I go in the one that shows the official DCS heading with the logo, all I have to do is enter 'w', click, and log on.
If I click the site that bypasses the official logo I have to re-start, because the cattleforsale site doesn't remember me, and neither do I!!
