How to tell if a Player left the game

As a GM is there a way for me to check to see if a player has clicked the remove button?

How to tell if a Player left the game

Players can't remove themselves from a game - they need to contact the GM and ask to be removed.

Players can take a game off their sticky list (accidentally or deliberately) so they won't see it any more... but it will reappear on the list, to remind them they haven't posted, every time anybody else posts.

Every game has a Cast List, which gives the GM information about the players' last log in and post times.  As donsr said, you can use that information to tell if a player isn't active any longer.

To the right every forum name (except the games you GM & RPoL Announcements) there is a button that is a square with a - in the middle. Hover over it with your mouse and you can see the word remove just below your mouse cursor. If you click it it removes that forum from showing on the front page.

In reply to Harley Quinn (msg # 4):

Yes, but as mentioned above, it doesn't remove the player from the game, and it will pop up on the front page again the next time anybody posts.

Also, no, there is no way for a GM to tell if the player has clicked to remove the game from their list (since the button only affects the player's view of the site, and only temporarily).
