I'm not sure it's that good an idea (personal opinion, I'm not slating you for your own). I'm not sure i'd want to see how many people had looked at me and passed me by! lol Laughing

The service was trialled (albiet very briefly) and the feedback was mostly "I like being able to see who viewed me, but I don't like them being able to see me".

So Toby's removed it for now.

How about having options like orkut...."Disabling profile visitors will stop you from seeing visitors to your profile AND stop others from seeing your visits to their profile" and those who want to be visible will use the service.

Most of the time, people would only activate the option to be visible to all, and to see who has viewed you when they're online or only briefly when they're interested in seeing it. Hence, most of the time people would be offline, so that others couldn't see if they were viewing them.

I'm assuming it's just a lot more work for Toby to create that feature. Failing that, i'm sure people would still come on the site asking for the ability to see who has viewed their profile WITHOUT letting others know if they have been viewing them.

I don't see the "who has viewed you recently" coming back in a hurry. If you want to know who looks at your profile, message the people you like the look of and ask! It's just as nosey as taking the information without their consent

still no reason to take away option from us who want to use the service...the idea of messaging people and asking them if they have viewed our profile sounds dumb... Rolling Eyes

But the service isn't viable. It's much like saying "you shouldn't take away the service that lets us look into other people's inboxes" - just because it's a potential service, doesn't mean it's a good idea.

As I said, we've tried it and it's gone back to the drawing board - your experience here is hardly incomplete without it Very Happy

(and the 'messaging people to ask if they've viewed your profile' idea was meant to sound dumb - that's why I said it's "just as nosey as the feature you want" - understand? )

The number of visitors isn't a valuable statistic for anything besides lighthearted comparrison between people.

Not all other websites have this function. And you'll find this website's an exception - it's run for people. Not to make money, hence if a feature doesn't go down well with the community, it gets removed.

Honestly, it's a great idea in concept. And then suddenly it dawns. How exactly will it help you?

Honestly? You say it lets you see more profiles - these people obviously look at your profile and don't send you a message, why would you want to talk to them? I'm genuinely curious to know how it could benefit anyone.

what on earth does it have to do with money??? why do u come up with weird explanations and comparisons? Rolling Eyes I look at alot of profiles without messaging them cause I think I don't stand a chance! and I'm sure alot of people feel the same when they look at my profile! Twisted Evil What do u know, maybe I like a fat guy with geeky glasses! intelligence turns me on! Razz
