I was just wondering, what does that blue glow around people’s profile pictures mean?
last poster when you’re OP?
Have you tried hovering the avatar and wait a little bit for the tooltip to show up?

Let’s hope ChizbeJoe isn’t a keyboarder, because if he is, he’ll have a problem.

Or perhaps tablet / iPad user.

Sorry, can’t read that image, as I am blind.

Thankfully OCR is a thing. 
At first - after reading just the large test (“Don’t Rely On Hover” and “Testing on the Toilet”), I thought that the poster was about ‘hovering’ over the toilet seat

Hi, I have the same question, what is that blue circle? Thanks.
This answer is accurate:
IE the person who started the topic is the same person who replied last. Their avatar shows up highlighted to indicate this, rather than appearing twice in the list.

As there is only one OP per thread, there should be only one highlighted avatar no? I can see several on some threads (on my site)
Other questions:
- I can see this glow effect on mobile but not on PC (as designed?)
- Are there any settings for this functionality ?
Thanks
I see it on desktop here - Only the first avatar is highlighted.
Mobile is a bit smaller, so having a glow there may be more distracting with the compression of information. Simplicity is key on smaller UI devices.
There are no settings for this, but it is simple enough to customize it through a theme if you wish.
