Jack is there a way to disable the "hidden" option on profiles?

Yeah, I don't even know how you show up as hidden. I've always just been given the option to log in to my account or post as a guest. I'm guessing a "hidden" person is someone who is viewing the website but hasn't logged in to post a message. You know what I mean? If that's the case then you'd have to make it so that people are required to log in to even view the website. I dunno though, Jack's probably got all the whats and hows on this down.

You can choose hidden, then your name isn't listed at the bottom when you are logged in. So no one knows who you are

Example:

In total there are 2 users online :: 2 Registered, 0 Hidden and 0 Guests [ Administrator ] [ Moderator ]
Most users ever online was 12 on Wed May 04, 2005 2:02 pm
Registered Users: gidgetgoestohell, obiwankobe

Gidgetgoestohell & obiwankobe are logged in. 0 hidden, but if I chose hidden then it would just show Gidget and 1 Hidden

I don't see either how you can choose "Hidden." That's not an option which is available to me when I log in.

So, can people post things while they are hidden?
