This is a potential security whole as the doors could stand wide open for others if you leave a computer logedin to GLOBO and somebody else comes along. Even if you are at home, it is a good habit to logout. Humans get used pretty fast to things and if you get used to it, and you forget it during your travel you might end up with somebody messing around with your account. There are other side benefits of propper logout, too. For example you will know more certain that somebody is loged in and you can send chat invitations with higher success rates without waiting for ages as they might already be gone. Last but not least, the GLOBO time feature triggered this tool, as the update of GLOBO time happens only during logout. So if you do not logout, your visit can not be added technicaly to your GLOBO time amount. Due to this reasons, there will be a short notice from now, if you forget to logout after your next login. Please remember to logout.
