if someone watches you play without going onto your profile is that still a view

As far as I'm aware, the metric on the profile is only for those that viewed your profile.

why can't we know who is viewing our profile?

at last count, I have over 3,500 views of my profile. I am an average 1600 player at best.

What in the world is so interesting about that?

It's the count of how good your mouth runs most of the time.

I think they mean that, when you post in forums, people are more likely to click on your profile to see who made a particular comment.

Or, people just want to see a larger photo of a cute cat. That's why I clicked.

If you watch your own profile without an account, does it still count it as a view?

No, as far as I'm aware it does not.

hi

it means we can never get to our views at all?

Nope, just go to your own public profile and you can see it. happy.png

Viewers usernames? No, you can't do that.

They can only stalk you if you put really personal information on your profile.
