Hiding in the shadows

How does it work?

I'm permanently in stealth mode, so no one should see I've viewed their profile.

This morning I've viewed profiles, after reading forum posts.

I havn't commented on those threads, just scrolling through & curious about the person behind certain comments.

Yes, I'm nosey.

Out of 7 that I looked at, 6 viewed me almost immediately, 2 messaged me, thanking me for viewing and wanting to chat.

I ran a test, checked with 12 friends, viewed their profiles.

None can see I've looked, so why can random people I've had no previous interactions with see me?

Strange! I’m going to start getting ASBOs if some people can see how often I’ve viewed them!

May be a technical hitch!

PlayD8 said a wee while ago that she was sure that, even if you were in stealth mode, the other person got a notification you'd looked if they had you hotlisted. Pure the fear in everyone ha! Don't think anyone worked out definitively whether it happened or not.

"They normally say it so you interact with them"

That's the issue. I really don't want to interact with any of them.

I viewed them, as tbh, their comments made me raise my eyebrows.

6 out 7 return views & 2 messages is too much to be a coincidence.

I've now viewed everyone who's commented here, can you see me?

Most people wouldn't message, but alot do.

Which is why I switched to stealth mode.

I view alot of profiles, from the forums, or local updates.

If I liked what I saw, then yes I would send a message.

Someone assuming I'm intrested just because I looked, when everything about their profile is the total opposite to my preferences, then getting shitty because I don't reply/delete is a pain in the arse.

Good test though and clears things up for many fabbers. I did that a long time ago and realised how it works! As soon as you become visible they show, but when you go back to stealth mode they vanish. However by that time the ones that noticed start to make contact as the OP experienced.

Many people choose to have selective mode for various reasons, but that is another topic so won't go into details... but you will notice on the number of people looked at you increases/decreases. It happens to me often. For example say 50 looked at you. If particular profiles went back into stealth number goes down. When I go into that page I noticed profile is not visible. A few days later the profile reappears... so they are going in and out of ninja mode!

For the record:

"*stops looking at profiles immediately

Dear Dotty.

Thanks for visiting my profile, I'm flattered you took the time to visit.

A shame you didn't find what you were looking for, I'm not offended and appreciate I'm not for everyone.

Have a lovely day and happy Fabbing. I hope you find what you are looking for.

Stingly.

Nice onr stingly, I might use that lol. No but seriously I think it must be a glitch in the system I often notice people appear and disappear off thr whos viewed me list. "

Terribly sorry. All my work is copyrighted.

People have shown up as looked at me, then when I log in a short while later....no trace of them doing that.

A glitch me thinks.

I’ve seen people who I know to be in stealth mode appear in Hotlist updates as having viewed me only to disappear later

May be a technical hitch! "

"How does it work?

I'm permanently in stealth mode, so no one should see I've viewed their profile.

This morning I've viewed profiles, after reading forum posts.

I havn't commented on those threads, just scrolling through & curious about the person behind certain comments.

Yes, I'm nosey.

Out of 7 that I looked at, 6 viewed me almost immediately, 2 messaged me, thanking me for viewing and wanting to chat.

I ran a test, checked with 12 friends, viewed their profiles.

None can see I've looked, so why can random people I've had no previous interactions with see me?

"

I've had the same problem and thought I was losing my mind forgetting to switch off the 'shows on profile', I'm assuming that it must be a glitch in the system!! Anybody reported it?

Are they all site supporters?

Were you posting on other threads around that time?

Tbh, not sure if they were or not... Without scrolling through all today's views & checking

And no, I hadn't posted on any other thread.

It was the first one of the day I'd read.

All the profiles viewed were on the same thread & I didn't recognise them as regular posters

Were the profiles local as we have noticed that profiles that don't appear in our "looked at me" section do appear on the local updates as having looked at our profile so maybe that the link.
