Users popping off

[emp1re]

Hello.

When we are on chat users on the right of the screen are popping off and on..

example.
when i am online with another user. my right screen tells me who is online, but in matter of seconds some users disappear from that list.. even my own name i see disappearing.. but still we are all in chat.
this happens sometimes every 3 a 4 seconds..
Anyone an idea how to change this or what to do about it ?

Forgive me my poor english, but i hope you understand my prob.

The session is checked against the forum, so if you are viewing the forum at the same time, you may pop off the list because at the time loaded, you had viewed the forum page, so it's not a bug, it's relaying the correct data.

Is there a way to avoid this..except closing the other pages ?
I mean can i build in a time out..so that users only pop off when they are inactive for lets say an hour...

Most users on my forum keeps a page with the forum itself on the background and check it regulary.. then they pop off from the list on the right and find it verry annoying.. is it possible to change it in anyway so that only when they use /exit or are inactive for an hour they will be off..
