i just found out there is a way to turn it off. here you go:
Yes, you can change your privacy settings at anytime and as often as you want. Go to My MedHelp, then click on Settings in the upper right corner. Then click the Privacy link and you'll see a setting for "Sees my online status". By default, this is set to only show your online status to your friends, but you can change it to display to everyone or nobody.
I was thinking the same thing. It's a nice feature but sometimes I only have a minute or two and can't check and reply to every message. I get one guy who mrssages me to death if I don't reply asap. Arrrrr...
Thanks for the suggestion!!
Erin
My kids think i am computer "challenged"!!! The little darlings!!!!
Confused........i know you would talk to me!!!!!!!!!!! I was so tired last night i just had to lay my little head down.
Sara....I WOULD TALK TO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hey i just saw the online thing under my name!!! Pretty quick arent i!!!! AND noone would talk to me????? Real nice!!!!!!!! LOL
OK if you go to your profile click on settings.Go to "privacy" you will see your choices .Private, friends and everyone that way you can set it by your mood on any given day .
LOL....hope you can sleep!! Good Night!
LMAO, I can imagine what kind of stuff might happen.......
Anyway enough said, LOL!!
I'm going to try for some sleep now.....................yeah that's worth another LMAO because I'm sure I will lay there for 10 minutes only to have to get up to go to the bathroom AGAIN!!
aww come on you don't want the whole world knowing...lol don't forget to log out..g'night
LMAO!! Hmmmm......you don't want the entire forum contacting you via IM???LMAO
I do have Yahoo messenger!! Right now though I need to try to sleep, if that's possible!!
I will send you guys my yahoo id via PM. I think that's the smart thing to do!!
LOL..do you have yahoo messenger..confused and I are on it..med-help really needs to do something about this..i'm sorry you can't sleep honey
Yeah I was on here answering a post and all of the sudden the screen said something like Med Help is upgrading will be back online by 4am EST!! It was wierd!!
The thing is I don't understand the true purpose of it if it doesn't have something attached like instant messenging! Otherwise what good does it do me to know if you're online or not? A good example in my case in that I USED to have this site set up to always be logged on but now I will need to remember to log out because otherwise ppl will think I'm on here 24/7!! ROFLAMO!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Lisa!!! why can't we chat on here..lol
Rolaids is all I have right now. The whole site went down? LOL Nice!!!
Yeah I was on here when they impletmented this new feature because it shut the whole website down!!
I'm up because I haven't been sleeping well at night for about a week so then I'm tired as h#ll during the day!!
Sorry about your tummym have you taken anything for it??
Oh and I am up with "yucky tummy" if you know what I mean....NOT fun!!
LMAO!! Morning Rose!! Did u get my message and I have no idea what good it does other than you can see if one of your friends is on line but Lisa can't see it!!!!!
Okay so I see where it shows you guys online but what good does that do? Does this thing have an instant message thing attached or what? And just for the giggles of it what in the world are we all doing awake at this hour of the morning, LOL!!
LOL..i was talking a smoke break..geez the **** med-help does when your having a cig break..LOL
For instance, you and Dominosarah are on line right now!! LOL
I went to someone's and it doesn't say "offline" so I am assuming it only says if someone is on line.
Go to your profile or someone else's and its under your or their picture
