Getting people to use the BRB would aid the civility of the site. People would know the person is coming back and may not abandon the table. People would not yell at people (the BBO ghosts)to act. The hosts would know better when to boot someone no longer there. How annoying it is to sit there waiting and waiting and the table is about to autoboot the person and then, they suddenly appear. If they are going to be gone for a minute, maybe I would like to also. Please make it easier to use and more apparent to the other players.

Found out the only thing it seems to do is gray out your name. No notification in the chat box. Doubt if people know what the gray out means.

I just found out that there is a brb button, hidden on the who's on line tab. I have no idea yet what it does. It would be nice to have it on the main page, perhaps on the line with Table, NS CC, EW CC, Redeal, etc. What does it do, how does it work? If someone uses it how long do they get. Some education would be nice. :)
