On purpose, since you joined? Just curious.
I can't recall any time that I have. I know it logs you out automatically if you don't come on for a few days though but that doesn't count.....

So ?
Have you, or do you always, logged out & why? Privacy, worried about a certain someone who will come on & pretend to be you, etc.. hmm??

I have logged out a few times, just for privacy issues. It's inconvenient though.

I dont log out but I clear my internet every...erm year or so.


I'm the only one who uses the computer most of the time and my boyfriend using mozilla firefox so no worries for anyone kicking anyone off.

According to my husband... the zoo
I log out every Friday at work. I don't work on Mondays, and usually other people use my desk and computer. Tuesday when I get back, I log back on.

At home, I don't log out.

I log out at work and home. In college I worked at a computer lab and we would have people that would load ICQ and other messengers onto public computers. When the lab closed up, we were of course required to uninstall the stuff, so we did...but AFTER we would IM all their friends saying nasty rude stuff to them since the person would be silly enough to leave it logged on....

I log out if I plan to be away from the computer for more than an hour or so, just so I can sign out of my service. I have to be signed in to Verizon Yahoo to use their special browser, which I like better than my IE because it has multiple tab capabilities. That is handy for jumping back and forth between here and Photobucket. If I'm only stepping away for a short while, I may stay logged in.

Not to spoil everyone's fun here, but vBulletin, by default, logs every registered user out when idle for more than 30 minutes (unless the admins have set that option to some other timeout). So you are logging out perhaps without intention when you stray away for too long. Otherwise, the "who's online" area would be festooned with pages of online TCS'ers.

Your TCS cookie (if set locally) then automagically logs you back on upon a revisit, without forcing you go through the manual logon procedure.

The cats house, we just pay the mortgage..
I really should log out at work...just incase. But I don't. I think I'll start though. Nobody ever uses my desk but it's better safe than sorry.
On the computer at home, we have seperate logins so I leave myself logged in all the time.
