Oh that. It just means they're having sex while browsing but the software can't determine which position they are using or what sex or species their partner is.

Ok, I might was well give you a serious answer. If you check the url for the forum main page you get this:

http://www.councilofexmuslims.com/index.php?action=forum

The last bit is the relevant part. There are default "actions" that come as part of the software, and there are also custom actions added by some of our modifications. One example is in the "Show last 200" link just under the shoutbox:

http://www.councilofexmuslims.com/index.php?action=tpmod;sa=shoutbox;shouts=200

On the other hand, not all custom pages have an action assigned to them. One examples is our rules page:

http://www.councilofexmuslims.com/index.php?page=12

So, if a guest is viewing a page like that the software will list their location as "Unknown action".

Hey do you mind if I move this out to the Questions, Problems, Suggestions board? It might help if everyone knows what this is about.

The "nothing, or nothing you can see" message that shows on the online page is a similar thing. It means that person is either viewing a page the software doesn't quite recognise, or they could be checking some of their profile settings (which in the case of their personal profile settings would be "nothing you can see"), or it could be a staff member checking something in admin (which you can't see either).

Bottom line is they are harmless messages, even if the phrasing is a tad geeky, so don't worry about them.

I find your paranoia strangely sexy, Q.
