It would be nice to see how many times a post has been viewed. I miss it badly.
I don't recall it ever being a feature. So, I am at a loss as to how you can miss a feature that never existed.

I can tell you that it annoys me when I see a thousand or so people viewing a problem post and not getting a response. That's about the only use I've gotten out of it, tho. Michael Flanakin Web Log

Ah, yes.... But CodeProject isn't "almost all". It is more exclusive than that.

Hmmm... Yes. It is exclusive. It's cool and nice. (Cheers chris) But I like the view count on other forums so I was suggesting it over here.

Enlighten us who can't see it. What use is that statistic?

You've gotta be kidding me, right!? When you have a problem you can't figure out and have been hammering away at it all day, you're hoping that a message board will solve your problems. When you see tons of people reading your post, but you get no responses, it just sucks. How could that not annoy you? Michael Flanakin Web Log
