When logging in to this site there is an option to click a little square called "browse board invisible".

What does that mean?

I have not clicked it, to see what it does, because I'm afraid that if I did and I did not want what it does, that I would not be able to get back to where I was before, as I have no clues about computers.

What is it? What does it do? Why is it there?

Please respond in basic English, as I do not speak Geek or Nerd.

I use it all the time when I want to browse the board whilst siting naked in the internet cafe.
I works! Everyone stairs but that must be for the movement of the keys that cannot be explained!

I don't know either
but if You browse not logged in...
You can't access photos etc..

so, I assume You have logged in and can do all the things a member can.....

but You don't show up as ON LINE

but Post anything or answer posts etc???
PM etc ????

sometimes I leave My browser open all day which would mean I look like I'm on here all day... lol

Maybe I should be invisible...
lol

You must have accidentally ticked it, because I can't see any browse board....what is a browse board, anyhow?😀

When you go on the main home page, listing all of the separate forums.

At the very bottom it has a list with a heading like this.

Who's Online - There are currently 20 Guests, 16 Robots, 20 Members and 0 Invisible Members browsing Aussieveedubbers

If you click "Browse invisible", then your user name does not show on the list of members online, or those that have visited in the last 24 hours.

This is handy if you know someone is watching you and you want to remain invisible.
