Since the inception of the new format, I have been intrigued by the people who show up under my profile as Recent Visitors. I have no idea who many of them are and often wonder why they decided to explore my profile. Sometimes it is a pleasant surprise, sometimes, not. I'm not comfortable leaving my name in someone else's Recent Visitor list so I will go offline to look.

Anyone else have thoughts on Recent Visitors to their profile and/or leaving their name in another member's Recent Visitor list?

Has social anxiety managed to extend to the online realm?
Personally, I do not give a shit, which is why I do not use stealth or other privacy features, but I'm not that curious about other posters either.

I don't think it's any big deal. They could have been interested in a post you made. They could have wanted to a thread you started. They might have wanted to see if you had any friends in common. They might even want to know why a person was banned and why they came back.

As a rule I look at a profile page if someone has written something in a thread that I have found funny, interesting etc...I assume the same for visits to my page...

Exactly,

It is almost like finding a fabulous book and then looking to see if you can find any other gems the author has penned that you havent devoured already. Yes it does seem somewhat voyeuristic but in truth it is usually pretty benign...

Yes. I have some definitive thoughts on Recent Visitors.

But I think, all things considered, it would be politic that l remain mum about them for the time being.

Qu'est-ce que tu en penses?

I like the new format with the visitor page, friends list and the blogs. I find many members very interesting on here. So i often visit many on my friends list and people i am interested in getting to know better. There are some very bright people on here. I look at my recent visitor page as a reminder to keep in touch with the many wonderful people i've become friends with on here.
