What does the Hidden thing mean? Can Admins hide what they are doing on the forum or something?

I suppose they can do so, since they are mostly kept in-the-dark...

Eh, doesn't in-the-dark mean that they don't know something. I thought Admins are most likely to know stuff in the whole server (Optical not included)?

Heh, I noticed this too. I'm pretty sure it's an Admin+ feature so I guess that narrows it down to who it could be by quite a lot ;)

Why would an admin hide himself?

As for as I know, we don't have an ability to hide what we do. However, I think that when we access boards like the admin+ forum or the admin panel, it might see we are hidden... not entirely sure.

Ah, that makes sense, in the same way that a guest/recruit would see a builder viewing builder+ as hidden?

No because it will still say relkeb is online but under activity it will say "Nothing or nothing you can see"

I remember that! When I first joined and saw that, I thought that was awesome.

Probably shouldn't share this since it's not the greatest thing to be doing but:

Profile -> Account Related Settings -> Show others my online status
