It means active.

boards.ie can only tell if someone is logged on when they access a page. "Active" refers to users who accessed any page in the last five minutes.

If you stay logged on from a PC, the light will turn off five minutes after you visit your last page (on boards.ie).

Pigheads active. I'm green.
When Pighead was young and he'd say something innocent and childlike his mother would toussle his hair affectionately and say "You're as green as the grass Pighead" I'd just laugh along with her but to be honest I hadnt got a bulls notion what she was talking about.
I know now what it means of course. Oh sweet memories
