I am a user on another avatar site that gives this sorta feature and I haven't used it in all the years since it was added there. I mean I wouldn't be against this as a thing, like it wouldn't bug me if it was a thing, but I wouldn't use it ever. I'd opt out of it immediately if given the option and never look back tbh.

Sounds weird to me and like an unnecessary feature on the site. Too little gained to even bother implementing.

I don't really see the need for this honestly. It seems pretty pointless. What does it matter who visits your page? It just comes off as a need to control.

I dunno. If people want it, fine go ahead. But its not something I would use and it would make me less inclined to visit peoples profiles. I don't like the idea of being "stalked" nor do I like the way it would make anyone, even me, a "stalker" to some people if I visit their page more than once.

Unless there's a way to make it to where if I have my online status set to "hidden" I don't show up on people's profiles, then no. It's a feature on a few sites and I don't like it there and I certainly know I won't like it here.

It makes me feel uneasy. Sometimes I look at people's profiles to see their pets and things just for fun. Also, as was brought up, if someone wants to anon-gift someone else and goes to their page to get to their wishlist, then how easy is it to see exactly who it was that sent you something.

If this existed I think there would be a lot less people going around aimlessly perusing through user profiles. Well, that's my perspective because that is how I would feel! x) I would definitely do a lot less checking out profiles, because it's embarrassing. Ask me why I don't know. :P

I doubt this addition would spark any friendships. What an awkward conversation! "You, you visit my profile a lot!" ;)

Besides, Subeta has a halfway-decent blocking feature. If you are concerned about a user paying you undue attention, you are at least able to block them from doing so here, unlike on other websites!

i can't say that i see many (or any) upsides to a function like this, apart from maybe "now i know who has been looking at my profile," which i personally have been doing just fine without for quite some time now.

on the other hand, i can most certainly imagine it leading to some unnecessary tension. who is this person? why do they visit my profile so much? if i visit someone's profile, will they be asking the same questions about me? and god forbid someone you don't get along with shows up on that list, that's just a "what does/does not constitute harrassment" debate waiting to happen.

i hated this function when i used deviantart, and i doubt i'd take much more of a shine to it on here.

This seems unnecessary... If it happened, I would just opt out of it. It seems like a lot of users would. xD

Subeta loves drama, and I can only see this causing more of it, so if that's your thing then, I'm sure it sounds great. I however think this is a terrible idea. I don't want everyone knowing I stalk them!

I would only be okay with it if everyone had the ability to opt out of showing up on it. If we don't have that option, I'm against it.

This is an excellent point

Personally, I don't want this at all. I don't want people to know I'm looking at their pets like 24/7, it would make for awkward conversations.

Also, it would make people way less eager to go and reach out to others. Look at how many people are saying they wouldn't look at profiles as much

If this was a feature, I would camp out on a random person's profile all day and make them wonder what I was doing xD

I don't really see the benefits to this, someone visiting your profile a lot doesn't necessarily mean they're stalking you. Random example: I visit a friend's profile often because she's on my quick links and she has the basic userinfo widget on. I take the most recent posts/threads from there and plug other people's userIDs when I'm helping on CW identification, among other things.

I've heard random people say they've clicked my profile because they know I have my stickers up and it's a quick link. Or maybe I have dailies linked on my profile. Or maybe someone just wanted to look at one of my pets. Or see if I wrote anything new. Or anon gift something from my WL. Or maybe they love my profile art. Etc.

At the end of the day, I think the little information that would come from such a feature wouldn't make up for the awkwardness and paranoia that it could cause. I don't hate it, but I would opt out (which seems the general sentiment of this thread), so I doubt it's worth the effort.

P.S. I don't even think the country is relevant, I (for one) have such owlish habits that you're likely to have better luck commenting me at 3 AM than at 9 AM. LOL

Considering I'd want to opt out of people knowing when I go to their userpage (and that many other users would likely do the same) I dont see this as useful.

This honestly just seems destined to cause problems. And even if it didn't I'd have such overwhelming anxiety about visiting any userpage ever.

Thank you for this XD

I think it's an interesting idea, and it could be kind of fun to see who visits you. Definitely would be cool if you had the option to hide it/turn it off too, or maybe opt out somehow from listing. But a little board with like... most recent people and maybe a lil flag by their names to show where they're from would be fun. :3 I like it, as long as people who -don't- like it can just turn it off (like 'last seen')

Thank you all for your input. c:

It was just an idea that popped into my head. I'm glad to see some people like it, but I understand the points of those who don't. >u<

You totally would.

On a more related note, I'm against this for all the reasons already stated. Anonymity is important...

This:

And this:

I wouldn't creep around anymore meaning less pet spotlight nominations. And god this would be so fucking creepy. 'hey eum, you visit my profile a lot'... nope nope nope nope.

For me it would be more like "HI! I KEEP CHECKING YOUR PROFILE TO SEE IF YOU'VE GONE INACTIVE YET. CAUSE I WANT YOUR PET NAMES!" xD

Lol.... no.
