Aug 21, 2012 at 18:44 comment added Kevin McCormick Just a point of recommendation, methods like this, while well intentioned, should be created with caution. Along the way they tend to get peppered into unrelated code under the guise of "just in case" or "adding a call to it in X() fixed a bug, but I'm not sure why". If you have the discipline to only call RefreshUserList() during LoginUser() and LogoutUser(), and not during, say GetUser() (where the list should be up-to-date already), then by all means the advice below applies.
