I check sometimes if I am bored, because then I can look for posts from the people online, and respond when appropriate. I figure that those who are actively participating should get more of my posts and more thought in my writing than those who just pop in casually.
That said, checking the Who's Online page is really more to satisfy curiosity than to accomplish anything.
I also check it while I am here, mostly out of curiosity. I really like when I can see what other people are doing, where they might be reading at. I feel like it gives me a little more of an idea of what that person is interested in. Also, I check it before I leave, and if someone is reading one of my posts, then I will wait another couple of minutes to see if I get a response. I also can tell who is here a lot and who isn't. I find it informative.
The Moderators' activity is guised in the Online page - even from each other - this way no one can track what they are doing save for Admin only. The list of 'what members are doing' has been updated to contain references to all the new games we have added.
I used to check the online page all the time, but since I met Florena there, I try not to go there as often. Still, me curiosity is quite strong (I can't help it), I take my chances and have a look from time to time. I don't see the use of it, but I do it.
The main purpose of Florena is to prevent peepers from doing nothing but peeping. It is strange, but some members join and then constantly reload the 'Who's Online?' page checking and checking to see who is coming in, for what I do not know. I had one user check it constantly for hours.
Raul, you can get Florena protection from the Shop so that you can have a look with confidence.

Offtopic but, This must be what it feels like to be JB, only multiplied by... a lot! |
I recently made the Online page look more colorful / comical, you would have to see all the options for what people choose, but it can be funny.
Dimavo, you can buy 'Florena Protection' via the Shop if you want to avoid her when visiting the Online page.
