What's with the +?

[FrankZ]

I just noticed, some users have the + sign after their usernames on the Currently Active wUsers list on the Board Index.

So what does the + sign mean?

[AJ]

1) Go here: http://www.warboards.org/member.php?u=43586
2) Notice any connection between the people in the list you posted and the page I linked to?

[Vezer]

I'm not your friend. :'(

[FrankZ]

Ahh. It means that those users are currently your friends on WarBoards, yes?

Thanks AJ. And thanks for the splendid name change. :D <3

[Modred]

Actually, the + denotes someone on your Contacts list, which does not necessarily mean they are listed as a friend. I've been using this for over a year to quickly scan the "Who's Online" listing for people whose posts I enjoy.

Youre a friend to yourself :D.
OMG AJ changed his Gordon Freeman avatar!!!

[FrankZ]

So WarInSerbia, what's the supposed to mean? A baby wouldn't deny that that was spam.
And, er, yeah. Thanks for clarifying things over, guys.
