    No they can see everything, you just can't see the fact that they are online.

    You don't know what invisible mode is, yet you appear offline so I assume you are on your phone?

    That's sort of why I started the thread. I mean surely there's only so much spectating that you can handle. If you strongly disagree with a post ( which is bound to happen a few times on here ) then what do you do? Shake your fist at the screen?!

    Googlebots. Bingbots. Nigerian Scammers. Governments. News agencies. Shy people. Lots of shy people. The FBI. Definitely the FBI. Probably the FSB. And the Thai king police or whoever prosecutes that lese majeste thing they have a hardon for. And maybe God.
