How accurate is the recent activity section on everyones profile? I see a lot that say a few months, but would it say "a few months" if the person hasn't been on the site in years??

Hope someone has the answer to this! :)

Not to be an asshole, but I am honestly curious. What difference would it make? A few months tells you that they aren't really active. Are you holding out for someone?

I'm just curious as to how quickly this site updated itself. Not to be an asshole myself, but if someone asks a question and you don't know the answer to it, then why comment? Just to be an asshole?
well fro, ,y point of veiw if there not active leave them alone they realy dont want to be contacted . we are in and outta here all the time . we have sevral freinds we chat with and a few we play with but if there not inerested we dont cry over spilled milk lol .

It appears that you took offense anyway. My point was that whether it was a few or several months, the members are obviously not active. Common sense would tell you that no one but the staff on this site, save a person looking at the code would be able to answer the question. The PHP would show you how the site is calculating the time and with the amount of time that passed, the string (message) it adds for each amount. This can be accomplish with "If Elseif" statements in the PHP. As with the example below:
-----

$timezone = $row["timezone"];
$timeoffset = $timezone * 60 * 60;
$lastvisit = $row["lastvisit"];
//$lastvisit = $lastvisit + $timeoffset;
if ($lastvisit == 1062100000)
$lastvisit = "A Week Ago";
elseif ((time() - $lastvisit) <= 43200)
$lastvisit = "Today";
elseif ((time() - $lastvisit) <= 86400)
$lastvisit = "Yesterday";
elseif ((time() - $lastvisit) <= 259200)
$lastvisit = "A Few Days Ago";
elseif ((time() - $lastvisit) <= 604800)
$lastvisit = "A Week Ago";
elseif ((time() - $lastvisit) <= 1814400)
$lastvisit = "A Few Weeks Ago";
elseif ((time() - $lastvisit) <= 2592000)
$lastvisit = "A Month Ago";
elseif ((time() - $lastvisit) <= 7776000)
$lastvisit = "A Few Months Ago";
else
$lastvisit = date("F j, Y (g:i A)", $lastvisit);

Seriously though, what answer were you looking for? snippets from the php, with a detailed overview? Perhaps were you holding out for a couple's return and were wondering how accurate the "last visit" algorithm was? If that's the case, the last string it uses is a "few months" anything beyond the "7776000" mark would show the actual date.

In short, I was asking you to be more specific because I was curious as to why you would ask. Now, I am asking you to be less thin-skinned. So again, what does it really matter? A few months to 2 years means their not available regardless as to what the little string of text tells you. I was not being an asshole, just asking what it mattered to you, out of curiosity as I stated? I was just trying to make sense of your inquiry.

One more thing, since you seem to be trully interested. Rob, the owner, has to hold on to your account for up to 5 years for record keeping purposes. It's a legal CYA thing. I hope I cleared the confusion for you. :-) Again, my intent was not to offend you as I stated clearly.

<b>JOKAT,</b> For some, the lifestyle is not a full-time thing. Since the paid memberships are lifetime, this means that you are going to get members that aren't here for sometime due to the other activities that come up in their lives. It's a pretty good indicator that if a couple or person has a profile that reads "last visit: a few months ago", that you should not bother. A good suggestion would be to have a admin/member/longevity induced stamp that can go on the profile that says "INACTIVE" when the person/couple take a break.
