my space at the bottom of the main page used to show the members online in alphabetical order now its all out of order, its difficult to see if somebody is online, did i do something or is it just the way it is now?

 

I'm also seeing the same thing. Must just be the way it is.

 

It had been disabled totally about a month or so ago when we were having a bunch of database/performance problems. If I remember correctly, it's one of those things that takes a lot of server resources. Apparently the admins removed it initially but re-instated it without the sorting.
