Default The Ability to Appear Offline, but showing when last Active.

One thing that I do not like about the Offline Mode we have now is people can kinda tell when you are appearing offline because it doesn't show when last active. I think that there should be another option (Still Keeping The Offline Mode Option We Have Now) where it shows when last active so it makes other people think that you are actually offline.

I would like to see this implemented with sgtfrankieboy's suggestion too.
It would make a good add-on to the site itself.

Plus, it would make it seem like you are actually offline.
Just a suggestion though.

If it shows when you were last active it defeats the purpose of appearing offline.

I remember Dean telling me he could have fixed that awhile ago.

But if this were to happen, if you made a post, it wouldn't say when last active, only last activity when last online.
Then if you were to appear online, it would transfer your last active point.

I agree, but I would want it where it shows the default forum one and it racks up time until you take yourself off invisible:

(Time goes up until I set it where it shows i'm online)

Putting that way, it does make more sense, although most people who appear offline, stay appearing offline.

Everyone who appears offline continues posting. Unless your staff, I don't see how appearing offline helps anyway?

But Having it where when you appear offline it states your last activity "before you appeared offline" until you set your status back to online.

Why do people appear offline? It's so stupid, if you don't want to be PM'd or Messaged on your wall then just log off.

It only shows it for you on your profile. No one else except staff can see that you are online or what you are doing.

I know that, but what I'm saying is for it to show you when last online for the last active.
So instead of the Online/Offline status being nothing, it could show when last active so others would think that you are actually offline when you are actually on.

And if this were to happen, if you made a post, it wouldn't say when last active, only last activity when last online.
Then if you were to appear online, it would transfer your last active point.
