Well hello all of you people who make things happen on CA, I was just wondering if say for example in the sketchbook section you can check exactly 'who' has visited your sketchbook. I ask because we always hear people complaining about the lack of replies. There have been rant threads in the past on this subject. And its true the ratio of views to replies can seem pretty rediculous sometimes. Because not everyone can be bothered to give some sort of critique maybe this function of atleast seeing who has viewed your sketchbook can offer some satisfaction, anda bit of guilt on the viewers part:P . So what does everyone think of this...is it possible?

you can already see who replied and how many that visits your sketchbook. I don't see the point of seeing who is visiting. And besides, if I would reply to all the sketchbooks I visit, it would be too many.

We already have something similer.

Not really nessessary.

[scumgrinder]

that would mean more unnecessary info for what i guess is already a huge database. Imagine keeping track of who has visited every single sketchbook

[jubilee]

sketchbooks suffer a bit of a darwinistic shuffling in that the most interesting usually end up tward the top and those less captivating spend a considerable amount of time on page 4+. I think that that is the best gauge of progress you could look for.

this type of information seems very unecessary.

oh yeah, thanks for that last little comment mikecorriero. I would still really like this, would just be interesting to see who watches and never replies.:perv:

It's interesting kind of. But superfluous, also. I mean.. if you see someone who's visited your page and not replied.. are you going to do soemthing about it? Maybe not.. Some will. Than some people will have a huge mass of " Oh my god, Marko, you visited my page! what do you think?"

Easy answer: everyone. It would be easy to add a comment to all the topics of there were only five people on this forum. But with bigger numbers people select what they look and of these topics that they look at the select where to post.

Most people just can't be bothered to reply to everything. I don't get a lot of replies myself, but don't really find that strange. If anything, i just take it as a sign i should get better. I'd link to my sketchbook in my sig but i can't get the html code to work for some reason. If there was the option to know who visited my sketchbook, i don't think i'd use it much anyway.

you're lucky if you recieve a 10% reply-to-view thread. So if you have 600 views, you're lucky to have 60 replies. Even popular threads in the lounge barely make the 1:10 ratio.

I'd say 60 replies out of 600 views would make you godlike (we know who they are). I'm lucky to get 1 reply out 100 views.

awwww come on guys stop being so boring!

[Red_Rook]

blog, it not being boring its being rational, i dont know but it seems like that would be really complex to code, and not really worth it. Is it cumulative, so if you have 600 views does that mean theres a list of 600 people down the bottom? whats wrong with seeing the current viewers and seeing how many people have seen your thread. What information is that gunna give you? what you gunna track down people "omg you looked at my thread and didnt reply!" it seems like a tremendous amount of work that wouldnt really work.

I agree, I think we should be grateful that people actually looked at our work in the first place.

ok, thats fine.
