If you post tactics for example and five people look at it and the same 5 people look at each others post which shows as a new post to them, that means you have 26 views if my math is correct. So what did that tell you?

So no it wasn't a troll comment.

Meanwhile their is a guy getting mass upvotes for correcting the order of equipment from body feet head whatever it is...

Not that I am dissing the suggestion because I think it is a good one, just saying.

Like I said uptop, the team thread example was only an example, not the sole purpose in which I suggested this idea.

It is like Youtube views. Some people make their wages off Youtube views! Doesnt tell you much however, and it could all be one teenage girl, doesnt matter to Ytube or the viewers, or the sponsers of the Ytubers. Pure curiousity.

the fact is that this adds ZERO to the game, other than to stroke egos so that OPs can feel important. i couldnt have swore that bort said in the past that this is NGTH.because all it promotes are post count wars.

apples and oranges. there's nothing logical about how the current eq is setup and it can cause someone to miss equipping a piece because things arent in the right order. i know i've missed pieces many times, and i've seen others do it too.

the fact that you are trying to compare the 2 instead of showing how your idea isnt worthless shows just how worthless the idea is. defend your own idea, instead of dragging other ideas into it.

I didn't make any comparisons. I just stated how not every suggestion in GLB will bring a dramatic change.

Countless other forums show viewcount and it has not killed anyone.

Instead of you stating to me how this forum will bring something -1 to the game,
you are personally insulting an idea which is very successful in many other and larger forums across the internet.

i didnt say it would bring a negative. i said it has no positive. i'll always -1 an idea that has absolutely zero benefit. instead of attacking why people dont like the idea, just show us a BENEFIT. it doesnt matter what other suggestions are done, it doesnt matter what other sites do. if you want a change, prove that it has a benefit. i'm really not sure why you keep avoiding that.

as for me, until i see a tangible BENEFIT associated with this idea, i'm not going to be bumping it any more so that it can go away like other meaningless ideas.

BTW, had you suggestions a way to see WHO had actually read a thread, i'd give that a +1 as it actually is beneficial

Positive: Poster can have a number which represents the number of views their post had.
Examples:

Players looking for teams (and Vice Versa): Your team puts in an add in one of the mentioned forums, (Lets just say Cincinatti Bengalz ] It is preseason. A day passes with no PMs sent to the owner/you. Another day passes. Of course you are constantly bumping the post every few hours. With a View Count button, you see how many views your post has recieved, if you see very few views you know now to greater publicize this post, maybe throw it in your forums, maybe even have the owner/coordinator create a post with a catchier title (One that applies to a larger demographic) in order to increase views, so now you KNOW, your post is being read, you just happen not to be generating PMs. And you now proceed, instead of bumping a useless post, to create a much more alluring post to possible readers.

This is one example...

I can not take this seriously. If this was seriously a suggestion to help advance the post you would have stated that sentence solely, and promote the thread, possibly PM me requesting to add it on to my post, etc...

Many people see a post and input their suggestion right into the post via comment.

Example:http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=4903631

Ubasstards posts one of his suggestions (A further suggestiion than the post starters suggestion.) In turn the post gains popularity, many people although they upvote Ubasstards post, they are also promoting the entire suggestion.

If you still see this as a waste of your majesties time, feel free to stop bumping this "meanningless thread".
Your opinion is valued, but your unconstructive criticism is not.
