Do you "Log Out"?

[trekkiedane]

Trying to explain the workings of a BBS to a total net-n00b made me realize that there is a Log Out-item in the internal menu bar!




Something new every day…

 

[Emher]

Not really...unless I'm not at home. Which would actually make a maybe, but I voted no. Hmm...

 

[All Seeing Eye]

When I close down my internet it automatically clears all saved data, meaning when I go back on the internet i'm no longer logged in so there's really no need for me to log out.

 

[RoJoHen]

I see no reason to log out.

Even if I'm on a public computer somewhere, I figure the odds of someone else trying to access the TrekBBS to be pretty slim, so I don't bother logging out there either.

 

[Ethros]

Only I use my computer, so there'd be no point

 

[Mallory]

I log out whenever I'm not using my own computer. But I never (or rarely) log out on my own system.

 

[iguana_tonante]

I always log out from any account I'm using (TrekBBS or others), and my system automatically erase all cookies, usernames and passwords every day. The depth of my Internet paranoia is unchecked.

 

[JonathonWally]

I'm sad to discover this thread wasn't about the latest clever euphemism.

Reminds me of the classic Bash quote:

* ab is away - gone, if anyone talks in the next 25 minutes as me it's bm being an asshole -
<ab> HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS

 

[auntiehill]

Ditto. I don't log out because I'm almost always home, and I'm the only using my computer.

 

[RJDiogenes]

I never log out at home, and I seldom use the Internet anywhere else.

 

[Trippy]

No, I don't log out. I usually use the internet at home for here. Work internet is work-related stuff.

 

[Starbreaker]

No. I'm either at home or at school. All campus computers are designed to clear saved data when the browser is closed.

 

[The Sneeze Police]

Sometimes. I don't really know why I do.

 

[An Officer]

I usually log out... force of habit from when I used to regularly use internet cafes (no net, phone, or even TV connection where I lived). I'm slowly becoming more relaxed about it though.

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

I never log out.

 

[An Officer]

^ That sounds like a threat.

 

[iguana_tonante]

^ That sounds like a threat.

Come on, I'm the only one so far that logs out regularly? It can't be right!

 

[Zulu Romeo]

I log out whenever I'm not using my own computer. Can't have too many Zion Ravescenes out there, now. [You're too late. We're everywhere. - Zion Ravescene]

Don't log out too frequently, now - you'll go blind.

 

[Michael]

Never, no.
