post-53268-0-44403300-1402204624.pngI like the feature "Latest Visitors" where you get to see who visited your profile and for how long, and I kinda wish other websites had this feature built in. But after checking it out, its been bothering that some random people have been on my profile for like 20 minutes or so. Its not like I'm afraid of my privacy, its just that minor thing that keeps bugging me. Can anyone explain?

The numbers are not for how long they were on your profile for, its the time they were there in the 24 - hour time format I think is what its called, so 20:04 would be 8:04 PM. Correct me if I am wrong.

 

 

That would be the time that they visited, not the length of their stay.

Okay that explains it. Thanks!

I check profiles mostly when user is asking question and hasn't posted all needed specs. If you are paranoid about your privacy, you can always delete all that information you don't wish to share. Or set it private. For some coutries I can understand wish for that since someone could open ie. bank account with your details but really, why would you feel like asl is something to hide?

Its not like I was afraid about my privacy, I just noticed that some people where on my apparently empty profile for like 20 minutes or so and I was curious as to why they were.

Yea, I can explain. I accidentally click on peoples names or actually hover to see who they are in a nutshell and then accidentally open up a tab then since I did it accidentally and unknowingly the tab stays open for who knows how long and for who knows how many restarts of the browser since I restart right where I left off with the same tabs open. So some people think I'm in there bizniz but nope just an accidental tab opener, that's all so if you see me staying for long times in a profile its that you got stuck in my tab mess. Get over it.

 

:lol:

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

Some profiles tell people more about the user, so i click on profiles quite a lot, even random ones to see what kind of people are about.
