Rather than having those six slots occupied by people who just update their profile, how about those six slots being used for the last six posters/members who posted?

It would give people an instant idea of who is participating RIGHT NOW in any given tribe at any point in time.

Active members = PARTICIPATING members.

Some people are joiners and join every single tribe, and then bless everyone else with their avatar image in every single tribe, because they update their profile every single minute. LOL!

But they don't DO anything in every single tribe. Some people don't even post in various tribes, they just join and lurk.

So how about making Active = Participate, with the option to sort members alphabetically, by date joined, and by last activity?

I'm more interested in the participating members, and learning more about them, than I am in seeing the images of lurkers parading across the top of the screen when they contribute nothing to the discussions.
