Rusty:

Can you correct some potentially confusing nomenclature in the client?

Rod Paine has pointed out one case involving Current versus Total Messages, and I have discovered another involving an inconsistency with the Session time and the times indicated by "Locate a User" I have included an example of this that shows you to have logged in an hour AFTER the host time.

here is an excerpt from todays chat:

Daniel O'Leary: Show your session time.
Daniel O'Leary: then choose Locate a user, and look up Rusty Tucker.
Daniel O'Leary: His date of last login is not coherent when compared to the host time displayed.
Daniel O'Leary: Due toomy TZ, tt says that he looged into SI about an hour AFTER the current host time.
Daniel O'Leary: Wierd.
mikael fredriksson: yea
Daniel O'Leary: I snapped a picture of that to show him.
Daniel O'Leary: Does it say the same on your side?
mikael fredriksson: the Host time dont update it still says 11.31
mikael fredriksson: I think thats is the time when you connected this call
Daniel O'Leary: Hmm Will have to ask him about that.
Daniel O'Leary: it is confusing.
mikael fredriksson: yes host time should be current time at the server
Daniel O'Leary: Should be changed to current login Time.
Daniel O'Leary: or Current Server Time.
mikael fredriksson: yes
Daniel O'Leary: And the one above it to Prior Login (logout?) TIme.
Daniel O'Leary: Depending upon what it really was.
Daniel O'Leary: Seeing it in this context is confusing.
mikael fredriksson: I think prior login as mine says 11.01
