Why Is The Currently Active Users List Not In Alphabetical Order Any More

It used to make it easy for me to see if certain people were on the Pit, but now it's like finding a needle in a haystack

Hi Chris,

It has nothing to do with the forum skins. Alphabetizing the list is resource intensive. When there are a lot of people on it really strains things. We're sorry but for now the list will be displayed randomly. You can still add people to your buddy list or use your browser to search for user names.
Peace,

I figurd it was just to make it tougher for people to spot the username Rubysdad and start all the "Tim, I see you there, tell me why the avocado doen't have a pit on the back cover" threads.
