Hello all, Im trying to get a better grip on the purpose of the Log In feature:
Is it for admins to log in and do back end changes rather than use the /administrator approach?
Is it somehow connected to the ability for a user to actually log in and be a part of a blog? Is there a standard blog extension on every rockettheme template? I noticed Affinity has JomSocial as an option... but what about the others?
Sorry so many questions, any help or feedback is appreciated!

There are different levels of users in Joomla. The different user levels have different privileges. A "Registered" user would be able to login and possibly see or use different areas of the site that a "Public" user would not. The "User" is not specific to any area or task. Instead, you have the option to assign the areas to users if you like.
Hope this helps!

- It does a bit, I think it clears up the part of my question as to wether or not the Log In module is used for administrating the site as apposed to blogging or using a forum on the site... in the way you defined it; it sounds as if the Log In Module is specifically for various levels of admins...thanks!

Not administrative per say. If I were to give you an example it may help.
So, let's use Rocket Theme.
The general public can visit the site and see many pages. Only "Members" however have a login and can see "member only" pages.
Then there are deeper levels of membership, and of course, administrative for users such as Moderators and Team members.

You assign the member a level of access.
Public is all
Registered has a login
Then Assign you Menu Items, Articles or Modules "Registered" for registered member only access.
