This site is awesome except for the “viewed me” feature. I don’t like it, gives me a lil anxiety. Anyone else rather the site would do without?

I like to know who has interest in me, but I don't like the "hovered" notifications, it should be only people who clicked onto a profile to learn things about the person of interest.

Putting on a tinfoil hat could help.

Tried that already, what else ya got?

A lot of times when I click or hover it is an accident, other than that it can be very useful. If for example someone writes something about news, weather, or environment, it is often good to check where they live, at least the continent, since that deeply affects how you understand what they are saying.

People are going to view you regardless. Don't you want to be able to know?

Buffalo BILLs defeated by 2 false flag referees....not grounding legal block film proves the truth and McDermo leads the team in prEyer

@Larry68Feminist it may surprise you to discover that I have no interest in football.

@BitFlipper I am losing my sole interest in BILLs because of xian coaching and corrupt referees...the only reason I played 51 years ago was to get a cheerleader to love me.....I last played against Marines @ Camp Pendleton 1972.....My father knew Buffalo BILL in Iowa where all 3 of us were born....

I wouldn't worry about it. It doesn't mean much. I often "view" someone to get some sense of where they're coming from or to remind myself who they are. I'm married and not kicking anyone's tires. This is only PARTLY a dating site.

Beyond that, it's pretty easy to accidentally click on something you don't mean to; I'd guess 15 ot 20 % of the "views" I do are inadvertent to begin with.

I don't recall for sure but I think you can make your profile private if you want to. You certainly can on most sites. Of course if you're here for dating, that's inadvisable.

It's kind of a dating site. It's not a totally blind dating site 😁

Prevents lurking and stalking ....it is creepier to NOT KNOW who reads your words looks @ your photos

Don’t care one way or the other

I don't even notice the feature and so did not feel right voting on it.

Why does it bother you?

B/c i see repeat faces on a daily basis, I have bad anxiety

@sandrarocks83 Go to your settings and scroll down to the mini pop ups and make sure it is off. It may cut down on the traffic. If it is on I believe if they just pass over your name or photo it will appear as if they went to your profile. It is called hovering I believe. I think that is true.

@sandrarocks83 It actually says which it was, hovered or visited.

@Sticks48 thanks for that, I went to my settings and made some adjustments that I think should help!

It's fine by me

Why is the viewed me feature anxiety producing?

Do u not get the same ppl looking at u constantly?

@sandrarocks83 sure I do. But it doesn't mean anything. They don't mean anything to me unless I want them to.

@sandrarocks83 another option is to take down your photos... they will quit looking at them!

I don't mind it.. Sometimes I check someone's profile to learn a little something about them before responding to their post or comment.

why wouldn't you remove what makes it creepy to be seen?
