asmith Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to install this mod for phpfreaks : http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1300 It is topic view log, So that people can see which people actually have read their topic... (Their topic has been viewed by who) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/144108-topic-view-log-suggestion/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
gevans Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 That's a bit similar to the active user mod that's just been put in palce, but I do like it Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/144108-topic-view-log-suggestion/#findComment-756158 Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmith Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 The active users is about the posts. Sometimes "You" need to know if someone has read your post or not.

premiso Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 The active users is about the posts. Sometimes "You" need to know if someone has read your post or not. Why do you need to know who viewed your post? I look at posts all the time, and I bet with this mod in place, all mods/gurus/recommendeds and admins will be getting PM'ed all the time...."Hey I saw you viewed my thread, can you help me?" I do not like this idea. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/144108-topic-view-log-suggestion/#findComment-756237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I'll have to agree with premiso. I think some people wouldn't like the privacy implications it'll have as well.

nrg_alpha Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I echo premiso and Dan's sentiments as well. It shouldn't be anyone's business who actually reads what, for same reasons already mentioned. If I had veto power, you know what I'd do to that idea!

I look at posts all the time, and I bet with this mod in place, all mods/gurus/recommendeds and admins will be getting PM'ed all the time...."Hey I saw you viewed my thread, can you help me?" ....and that's exactly why I have my online status set to hidden. I used to get bombarded with PMs all day long that started out with those words.

.josh Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Well I'm not the only one who does it, so you're still shooting blindfolded. Nonetheless, I do think it's retarded that smf adds that "+$x hidden" to the list. Kind of defeats the purpose of hiding. I feel like I'm playing a game of blind man's bluff or something.

Not if I'm in the regex forum I was just razzin ya though.. I know there are others as well who remain hidden. And yeah, I agree.. kind of pointless for SMF to even include hidden listings.

corbin Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I remain hidden too ;p. I'm sure all the people above Guru (or perhaps above PFR) can see me though.

asmith Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 "Hey I saw you viewed my thread, can you help me?" Yea you got me, I didn't think of it this way. You know backward could happen too. People will see someone haven't read their thread so ask him to read it.

.josh Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Thing is, when you've been here long enough and answered questions enough times, there isn't really a whole lot that gets asked that you don't know the answer to, just from having answered the same damn thing 100 times before. So tbh, if someone's question isn't being answered, chances are overwhelmingly high that its not being answered because they didn't ask the question properly in the first place. But it's one of those paradox things, mutually exclusive sort of things. If you are smart enough to ask your question properly, you are probably smart enough to at least figure out the solution on your own, in the first place. Not saying smart people don't need to ask questions sometimes...just saying...chances are...
