The Active Member's List (Just something that's been bothering me)

Something that's been getting to me is how unorganized the active member's list is. In every forum I've been to, the names are arranged in alphabetical order, and usually your username being the first in the list.

 

Here, though, the list is more or less something of a mess. The names aren't in alphabetical order, and it's driving me insane trying to find one particular name in the list, and in order to do so, I have to check through the list in a rather painful manner as opposed to skimming through a list that's alphabetically arranged.

 

Could the list be fixed so that the names appear in alphabetical order? [Don't know whether I should tag this topic a problem or feedback, please excuse me if it's the wrong prefix]

The list is organized. But rather than being sorted alphabetically, it's sorted by the last time someone was active on the site (which, IMO, makes a lot more sense to me). So, the first few names in the list will have done something on the site a matter of seconds ago, and it goes down from there for everyone who's been active in the past 30 minutes. If you rollover a name, a tooltip will pop up that tells you exactly when someone last did something.

 

This is intended behaviour in IP.Board, so I changed the prefix to Feedback as it is a suggestion for a change. I haven't checked if there is any way to sort the list differently, but I'd rather have it this way. If you are looking for a specific name there, I suggest you use your browser's on-page search function (Ctrl+F on Windows/Linux or Cmd+F on Mac) or just find the person's profile using the search function.

There is a way to sort it differently. Go all the way down. Sort By: Member Name

 

Twilight, IMO it should also be set to only show registered users as default.

May I suggest you to use ctrl + F?

Seems a bit more time-efficient than your method! ;)
