Number of logins

[Ant590]

I was wondering which poster had most logins? I'm at 6k, but I suspect this is on the low side.

[jjbrr]

6623. Probably not close to most, but maybe worth honorable mention.

[jdonn]

How do I know how many logins I have?

How do I know how many logins I have?

log in to BBO and look at your profile. it tells you now!

[matmat]

I am so glad it is the number of logins and not the total amount of time logged in.

 

My account is surprisingly low, at just under 4200 :)

 

also, it looks like the earliest signup date there is is march 1st 2005, or possibly january 3rd, 2005... :)

[jillybean]

Yikes, 14,086 logins That must include all my disconnects/reconnects.

 

I really don't like this new counter, now my husband has proof I spend far too much time on my addiction. :)

Well that was much nicer I was going to say "you pay attention to the world around you" :)

 

you may have to addend how you find your profile using the client :)

[jillybean]

My BBO - User profile - Show profile (button at the bottom of the pop up box)

[Rain]

Use the "find member" thing to search for your own profile if you wanna see your profile fast. Mine is 12K+ but I spend "quality" time!

 

Nickf has 14K+.

[JLOGIC]

4753 as jlall

 

453 as phantomsac

 

Almost all of my logins came from the earlier days of bbo probably, I pretty much never go on anymore ;)

[gwnn]

3760. wow so few!

[Aberlour10]

11K since 2002

[uday]

We started logging this information in March 2005. Any username created before that date has this date in the 'Created' field.

 

Two users are in the low 40K range. 5 in the 30K range. 6 more with 25K+

[Bbradley62]

40,000 logins in 2,000 days... impressive.

[js53]

I'm just wondering whether the new practice of showing the number of logins in one's profile is a popular one. I really dislike it; it seems to be giving out information that I deem private. Do others agree with me?

[Hanoi5]

I have less than 2000 and I think this should be private.

[Dwingo]

I have 9000 odd logins and would prefer an Option to hide this information.

[babalu1997]

anyone who has ever linkeed through a bad router will see it is really useless information, THAT number of logins

 

dont know why the date created would be useful to anyonee, except for a td who wants to restrict new memebers by date of creation, even then dont see the need for that to be public

 

the lucky ones joined before the ides of 2005 MARCH LOL

[jjbrr]

I'd like to opine that I really like the feature and I'd be curious to learn reasons why you would want to hide it.

[Bbradley62]

Why did someone decide this would be a useful thing to include in the profile? I'd rather see a stat for "frequency of mid-hand departure" :-)

[RedCat08]

I agree with js53, not just about number of logins but anyone can see what hands you've played and exactly what they were by going to:

 

http://online.bridgebase.com/myhands/index.php

 

and putting in a user name. I'd like to think that all of those hours practicing with the robots would be anonymous. The only hands you should be able to retrieve should be your own. Or, perhaps, there should be a "share information" feature which allows us to decide what we want to have shared -- hands, logins, ...

I like this feature, personally, but I can certainly also sympathise with those who feel it is a breach of privacy, and think this information should be treated in the same way as is 'email'.

 

I love myhands, especially being able to look up other players' recent results, but can understand the privacy concerns here, too, as it is essentially the same information.

 

I thought myhands only gave the last month? I like to think that this little information actually should be public.

 

Agree w/ bbradkey quit rate would be preferred, and/or total hands played/started/completed.

 

 

@ Uday: I would be interested to know both my THP and QR for 'MrDodgy', assuming this is also logged? Feel free to post it here.

Hi all,

I like the logins but I don't have time to peer at the jumbled profile to make out the login count. Can the server work up an attractiveness metric involving:

 

a. exorbitant time at a full table without playing at turn to play (not there)

b. leaving in middle of hand (some threshold that makes sense)

c. abuse-complaints

d. removing players frequently

e. how often you play (ok our MP levels icons does track that for many)

 

 

f. Chessbase also has peer-rating (idea originally championed by drtodd) using something called "applause". Peer rating works fantastic for what it is designed for. Even that other bridge site that is horrible has a bare bones peer rating system (that is horrible but better than nothing).

 

Thanks,

Dan

3.5k for me hmm...

Yup, quite glad it isn't total time spent connected!

 

I personally quite like the feature, but seeing as I also believe the masterpoint-meter on the profiles should be optional (and I don't see anyone complain about THAT one!), then this should be as well. I don't think any of this information is a breach in privacy, really. It's just a matter of preference.

 

If an indictaive meter such as the ones people have suggested here is in fact created and put into use, we'll definitely see similar complaints from users complaining that they would rather not have to display it. And of course, the whole point of that kind of meter would be to give others and indication of how responsible the user is. This means it should not be private or it would not mean anything at all. It also means that a lot more people will want it to be private.
