    I was wondering if there was a way to see the thread view count for some of the guides ive made? Or maybe a mod or admin can just PM me that number?
    thanks in advance

    I understand what you mean, but why would you want to see how many times something is being viewed?? What purpose does it have?? Just wondering... :)

    Dre, i don't think dRD will implement a function just so you can feel important... but keep trying, maybe someday he'll cave in and say yes... :)

    LOL, i was just joking about making it to feel important :D
    I really want it implemented so i can see what threads in a certain section are the most viewed, and IMO that would mean the most important ones or the the most popular. I would also like to see how many people have been helped by my guides ;)

    Easy to implement, but would kill the database, if every single forum thread page impression would have to update the view count to the database. Thus, no can go, until quad dual core Opterons drop in price :)
