Then that's because one of two things:
1) The user just happened to view that same page again.
2) The activity time set by LogicalGamers is 5 hours, which is what I've been asking to be reduced. Go back to the first page and view my example query. Replace "5 minutes" with "5 hours." The Users Online is being generated by gathering who has viewed any page in the last 5 hours. Which is most certainly not considered "online," as the user very well most likely isn't online 5 hours later. It's impossible for the server to know if they left the page open, or if they clicked "remember me." The way the server calculates this is by the last time the page was viewed, and if it's considering everyone who's viewed a page in the last 5 hours as "online," then it isn't hardly accurate.
Shit needs to be set to 5 minutes. I'm thinking it may be set to 24 hours to show all the members who've logged in that day; but doing that is pointless. It needs to show who's online now, so that they can be PM'd and the like.
