I have ticked the always logged on button on the opening page. Do'es this mean I am still logged on even if my computer is turned of?

Well you're not logged on now (19:30). I think it throws you off once there has been inactivity for a certain time. But I guess it means you don't have to log on each time.

I don't think it's that, Smokie, unless it is a very long time.  I've just got back home after 10 days away and I'm still logged on.

The always-logged on means when you come back to the site, it always knows who you are so it logs you on automatically.  When you shut down the server knows your IP address or PC Mac address thingy has shut down so it logs you off.

It’s a method so you don't have to input your username and password every time.  On the other hand, it could be seen as the site recognising you and making you feel welcomed back to the site…………… How sweet   ;D
