Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    "The last 10 visitors to this page were....Capt'n Midnight, chatterpillar, daveyboy_1ie, docentore, hurdehur, Katarn1, PinPointer02, robdig, sdonn, The Walsho"

    When I log in I usually check my user page to find my last few posts, in case there's a thread i've forgotten that i posted in or whatever. The above quote is what greeted me this afternoon, and it just got me thinking, why were these people visiting my page? With the exception of chatterpillar, I can't think of any reasons why the above posters would drop in. I've never even heard of half of them.

    I can't remember ever visiting anyones page except for Kiera, Silverfish and liah cos i wanted to find good posts they'd previously made. Is that the case here? Is it a form of cyberstalking?

    Am i just paranoid?

    Yes.

    And if they have invisible mode on, they could be looking at your profile and you wouldn't even know.

    You know you can automatically subscribe to a thread by posting in it?

    Unfortunately, I have just provided a demonstration.

    I just checked out your page $hifty.

    I think I might do it every morning now since it unsettles you so.

    Maybe I'll even do it at night when you're asleep. ;)

    Be seeing you soon buddy.

    Real soon.
    Heh! Heh! Heh!

    Thats not what i was trying to achieve, although i knew it would encourage a few ne'er-do-wells so i deleted the message left by chatterpillar. I'm not asking more people to visit it, just wondering why people already had.

    Maybe they accidentally clicked on your username when replying to a post. I have the world`s most sensitive touch pad on my lap top, and do that sort of thing all the time. So much as brush the touch pad, and it clicks on something. Right pain in the arse it is too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,714 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    The really clever stalkers stay in "visible" mode during the day then hit invisible mode when visiting your profile. :eek:

    Also, recently discovered that moderators appear to have the ability to carry out profile conversations with people who aren't their friends even when you've locked down the page. double :eek: :eek:

    Oh thats why female posters have such high counts of random visitors. Yes .... looking for good posts.......with pictures I bet :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,972 ✭✭✭orestes


    Switching between visible/invisible mode is frigging handy as a mod, depending on whether or not you want the person in question to know you are watching them. Paranoia can be a beautiful thing if channeled properly.

    Nope. But I'm pretty sure others aren't above it.

    Edit: I thought you asked "Would you do such a thing?". To answer your actual question; "others".
