I don't mean to complain since this site is great but there is one huge problem with it.

When people log off for some reason this site shows them still online for up to 30 minutes. Usually between 20-25 minutes.
Why on earth is this? If I want something fast I want to know if they online or if they have logged off.
This is the only forum I know of that when you log off it still shows you online for up to 30 minutes.
No clue why it was programmed like this. If I wanted to see if they were recently on I could just look in there profile.

Go to their profile & look at "Last Seen"

This is no problem..

I don't think that most users actually 'log out' that often. They simply close their browser or just switch to another tab or leave their computer. The 'online' icon shows if their last seen is less than 20 minutes ago. There isn't a way to check if a user is still at their computer, and since most users don't log out, how could they tell if they were offline?

Edit; One other issue:
Many users log in on multiple devices, how would 'logged out' be determined, on all of them? Their main two?

Most people that are trading at work or on a mobile devise will say that they are not able to trade till such time.
I think actually most people only trade while they actually playing the game at home on there computer.
That said if your still logged in on one devise then you still might be around to check trades.
This is for people that are logged off totally.

Yes scamming is a huge problem. But if you trade wisely then you should never be scammed.
Hackers are bnets fault since they dont patch the game every season or do regular bans.
Spammers are much reduced since the old days since d2jsp started giving people bans for misbehaving.

Reduce "online" status to like 5 minutes after exit jsp. Five minutes is plenty of time if closing web browsing / open web browser or rebooting computer.

Guess there little confusion.
Logged off = Offline.
You dont need to click logged off to be offline.
Just closing your browser will make you logged off/ offline.

This is about the 30 minute delay once you leave d2jsp.
