Sometimes in "Guests" tab of members online page seeing activities such as:
  • Guest Performing moderation duties
  • Guest Engaged in conversation
Upset users reported this to us, asking what is going on.

I assume guests are trying to open such pages, get "403 Forbidden", but XenForo anyway reports this as a regular last activity.
 
Automated triage: As designed

Thank you for reporting this issue. Pages that end in an error, including no-permission pages, are still recorded as the visitor's current activity, but they are flagged as an error view. Staff who can bypass user privacy see a warning icon next to those entries on the online list. Such a guest entry means the guest tried to open that page and got a no-permission error.

This is an automated assessment. A member of staff may review and update it.
