Is this a site wide issue showing people offline or just me?

I look at my friends list and it is showing people as offline when i'm having conversations with them and it's the same with my groups. You look at members online and it shows them online yet click on their profile and they are offline. I've logged out and back in even cleared my cookies and browsing history yet it's still the same. Is anyone else having this issue today?

i have noticed players appearing as offline and moving like they are online. Is there an "appear offline" mode?

blackfirestorm
No i've not seen anything like that

I have noticed the same.

I've seen it too; it can become very confusing.

Hang on it could be when using the mobile phone app?

No, you're absolutely right Donna, I've seen the same this last couple of days, and I've actually been playing with and talking to a friend at length yesterday and she kept appearing offline although she was clearly there because we were playing and chatting. There are one two or other bugs ongoing too Undecided

Could be a bug.... thought I think the mobile phone app theory is a good one.

No this is Chess.com not meebo ..... i've just checked that issue with forums and it's weird a forum i've just posted and although it shows on recent activity it doesn't show up in the group forums :/

Chessmates the popups are because you are a basic member...

I hadn't noticed the offline-online bugs, but I haven't had time to look at it lately.

Yeah, I noticed it to Donna, I have a new message alert and there is no message.  I did the same as you, cleared everything and yet it's still there.  Hope thay get all of this fixed soon....

It actually depends on how you are using your mobile phone. I play on my mobile all the time when I'm away from my computer, and I have made ten or more moves in a row against one opponent while appearing offline. On my phone I can only access C.c through the downloadable app. Other phones can actually access the site itself or have more advanced apps.

I have no chess.com app downloaded onto my phone it's just a downloaded browser. I never log off I just close the browser :>)

it's always been like that. Think it just shows them "offline" when they're idle
