It really freaked me out when I discovered that - you can keep track of what people are doing! It's like spying or something

It's 8:30 in the morning and I'm the only one here, so obviously you aren't all as averse to sleep as you pretend

Well - if someone doesn't want to be spied, he can always be in an invisible mode. Like BoP.

Well, you can try wrangling more out of me, but I'm too lazy to do anything other than steal peoples' pants. Which reminds me... I need some new specimens. ::

Outrageous. How dare you take the pants of a little innocent boy, to die in the coldness of the...errr... cold winter?

Must... resist... making a comment...

Anyway, I have terrible sleep habits, which I exacerbate by going on Entmoot at all hours of the night.

You really are obsessed with pants, aren't you? *looks at username* Hmm...

I like being able to see who's on, though it did take me about six months to work out that when the leaf is green it means the person is on the moot. Plus I love seeing what threads people are looking at. *evil laugh* Just to see who spends all their time on the Men of the Silmarillion and Fangirl threads.

You can tell what forum people are in, but what thread..? Do you spend a lot of time doing that? Maybe I'll start wearing an elven cloak if you're spying on people.

If you click on 'Currently Active Users' - it displays (un-cloaked) users with just what they're doing. It's handy to see if someone is answering something you've just posted, etc.

Or on the drop-down menu at the bottom of the screen, you can jump to "Who's Online". Shows you the same thing.

Nah, I didn't spam that much. It took me a couple months to get to change my title.

Ha, you're learning quite a bit about Entmoot now, aren't you, 'Dillo? It seems as though I'm not the only spy around here.

Even MORE accentuated for architecture students, Anglorfin... except the fun usually gets left out and the two things to do are 'study' and 'studio'!

'sleep' and 'mooting'... oxymoron? mutually exclusive terms? Yeah - but I guess all of our lifestyles are getting that way, unfortunately... it's a societal thing, we just try to squeeze all the 'living' that we can out of our lives... and maybe end up sqeezing the lives out of ourselves.

Well I do have 'studio' and 'sleep'. Not much study or fun. Most of the time I am on Entmoot now is when I am in studio
So that's how I deal with mooting these days.
