I'm not sure if any one else has noticed this, besides Aethien but I've seen other accounts also not showing up. Snailish is the only one besides Aethien that I remember the name of. But he is also not showing up, even immediately after posting.

Just thought I'd let you know it's not a single incident, and seemed to appear during / after the Sunday site maintainence (last week?).

I don't seem to be showing up today, if that means anything. Could be because I'm at work using Incognito Mode on Chrome, but there's no guarantee that's it. I want to say I've shown up before on the same browser as well. Not that it's a big deal, since I can just pretend I'm some sort of ninja or something.

I've got a ticket in for this. I know y'all first mentioned it when the new nav bar was implemented. I don't know when it'll be gotten to, though, so please be patient.

I'm not disappearing, so it's not too urgent to me :) Just wanted to make sure Aethien's short remark about wasn't skipped over amidst the other complaints about the new bar.

Thanks for letting us know, it's on the list.

You bet, and I appreciate the reminder because I'd meant to do that when it first came up, and got distracted.

I seem to show up fine from home on Firefox. Will check when I get to work to see if I'm still not showing up there in Chrome's Incognito mode. Edit: Today, I'm showing up even from work. Doesn't seem to be browser specific or caused by being incognito. Unless it's already been fixed.

I see you, Poldaran, now also, and didn't during the times you posted before (Mon?).

I see snailish finally now too, but just noticed no QuigleyWigley immediately prior to or a few minutes after their post.

Just to update.

And I'm back to being invisible again. Edit: And again, visible from home.

You must be at home right now, because I see you. So.. what's the difference in the two?

Home: Firefox, noscript(Zam allowed, google ads not but premium blocks ads)
Work: Chrome, Incognito Mode, no script or adblocker.

Some days I show up as a visitor while at work, some days I don't. I haven't noticed being hidden while at home.

I wonder if it's the incognito mode.

I thought so before, but it doesn't always happen, either.

The problem I'm having is that this is being a bear to repro, which really needs to happen before I can get someone to look at it. If anyone has more data to add so I can get reliable repro conditions, please chime in!

How long do names stay on the recent visitors list? It's easy to to say "that guy posted something 2 minutes ago and his name is/isn't on the list" but it gets harder as you go farther back because there's no way to tell if that guy who made a post 15 or 20 minutes ago is still supposed to be there or not.

I've no idea on the mechanics of it. When I popped in and ready your post just a minute ago I saw you and me and 41 anonymous.

It has appeared to be 15 minutes, but that gets reset by just reloading / browsing a forum. I never tested it out to be sure, but 15min seemed like the shortest time after post before someone would disappear.

Alrighty, I'm at work now and not showing up. Gonna try connecting in non-Incognito mode to see if I show up then. It'll require me to excise a chunk of the browser history afterwards, but I'm willing to go through that for the chance to test this thing out. Edit: I show up while not incognito. Going back incog and checking a forum I haven't gone to tonight to see if I still show up. Edit2: Didn't show up on another forum here while back in Incognito.

So that definitely seems to relate to the problem, though it doesn't seem to happen every single day, so there could still be more to it. But still, I hope this helps. Might need to check with others who have had issues not showing up and see if they're using Chrome and/or Incog as well.

Another weird thing. I'm not showing up on recent visitors list, since doing the changes mentioned https://everquest.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=3&mid=1427137303203469272#7 -- Basically cleared cooked, restarted, unchecked Remember by download and browsing history, and checked Clear history when firefox closes.

Showing up in Chrome. Can't get firefox to shut down and reload after updating to 36.0.4.

EDIT: Reset History settings (Remember history, don't clear on restart), and still not showing up 'cept for the 2 forums I visited on Chrome.
