The question is simple, do you hide your online status?
I never hide my online status, i don't see a reason why i should hide it.

Don't see the point of hiding mine either. I'm curious as to what possible advantages there could be to it.

Nope. Can't say I ever did. I don't really see the point of it though, if I was trying to hide from someone I'd simply ignore them anyway.

Suppose I'll be the first to say yes. As you can see, I'm always offline.
It's convenient for several reasons.
1. If I don't feel like talking to people but still want to be online it helps to show up as though I'm not. Going by past experience, I've noticed certain people get upset and feel like you're ignoring them if you don't reply at a certain pace. It's not that you want to ignore people (or are ignoring them at all), sometimes you just don't want to deal with them.
Of course there's the idea.. why don't you just tell them you want time to yourself?
That's a good point, but I rather not do so because even that can bother people.
I was going to list more reasons I do it, but I kind of blanked out.

There hasn't been an online users list for a while now, the only way to tell is next to the user's title.

Jacob took it off. I can't remember if he ever stated why or not.

I don't hide it. It's rather pointless since I've got the browser open almost 24/7, which (probably?) keeps me online most of the time.

Yeah, I do a lot... normally if I'm waiting for ONE person then I will hide myself online since a lot of times even when I'm away I get messaged. Not only that, I run a popular website so I get messaged a lot which is the reason I don't appear online since I may only want to talk to one or two people on there with no other way of contacting them.
