You view me, I view you
 
Do you pay attention to the people who view your profile? And in return do you go and view theirs?

Now in this point in time, do you start a VM conversation with them or just leave the curiousity alone?

As for me, I do go and view the people who have viewed my profile, but then laziness gets the best of me, and I don't leave a VM. But I do know of people who have VM'd me because I've viewed their profile out of curiousity~ I personally think it's a great way to start a conversation with someone you don't know, and you're interested in talking to them. :3

Dukey February 8th, 2010 8:17 PM

If there's someone who I haven't seen before on PC in there, then most of the time I go and check them out, if we have something in common (music), then I might vm them.

vanna. February 8th, 2010 9:41 PM

I deifnitely check their profile back.
I get curious :3

Taemin February 8th, 2010 9:42 PM

Sometimes I do.. and if it's someone I know nothing about then I'll check out their profile, as well.

poopnoodle February 8th, 2010 11:00 PM

Sometimes I'll take a look-see, rarely do I ignite conversation. Maybe I should more often.

Unforgettable February 9th, 2010 12:24 AM

Sometimes I do check out the other person's profile. Out of bored. I view random profiles all the time to look at the design. So I guess some people most likely wonder why I have viewed their's XD; I don't usually vm the person I don't cause I just think they checked out my profile out of curiosity.

Jesus oƒ Suburbia February 9th, 2010 12:44 AM

I might go visit their profile out of curiosity.
And I would try to start a conversation if I like something about their theme; signature or something like that.
It's usually their last.fm widget...

Common interests.

BHwolfgang February 9th, 2010 4:23 AM

There are some users who is notorious about stalking other people's profile while disabling his or her own. :-| There are some users who don't reply back even if he or she is the one who viewed your profile first.

Well, it depends if your something in your profile caught my attention. That, or you're a friend of my friend. :3 I generally don't stalk people, but I do if I'm bored. :(

Timbjerr February 9th, 2010 7:30 AM

If it's someone I've seen posting around and I know they've got a good sense of humor, I usually VM them feigning hostility...just for the lulz.

ShinjisLover February 9th, 2010 8:26 AM

I'm not usually interested in viewing them back and I'm only occasionally interested in who's viewing me.

As such, unless I think we have something in common, I don't VM people I view.

Cheesymitten February 9th, 2010 8:36 AM

I view them back,
If they're not my friend or I've never seen them about.
For some reason I get a load of people from the trading forum o.o'

Anxiety. February 9th, 2010 8:47 AM

No I don't. I couldn't give less of a damn about the people who check my profile.

And I very rarely leave a VM.

Sammi February 9th, 2010 11:57 AM

I check it every once in awhile out of curiosity. It's a rare day when I go o_O at someone who's viewed my profile, and it's even rarer that I VM someone just because they viewed my profile.

Seems that I still get a lot of views from people I don't know. Doesn't bother me any, although I still wonder if they click on me because they saw my posts here in OVP or on the who's online list or what.

Jack O'Neill February 9th, 2010 3:21 PM

I don't pay much attention to people who view my profile, and I rarely view their profiles in return. I almost never bother with VMs.

mikey February 9th, 2010 3:26 PM

I will sometimes out of curiosity, but not usually.

Caelus February 9th, 2010 10:55 PM

I used to do that all the time when I joined, but now it's usually every other week.
They tend to be the same people, too.

Halcyon February 9th, 2010 11:30 PM

Yes, but I am usually in invisible mode when I do that. XD

Conan Edogawa February 10th, 2010 4:10 AM

When I actually check my profile them I do visit my visitors profiles. I do it out of curiosity and never start a conversation. But I do answer when they start one.

Corvus of the Black Night February 10th, 2010 5:54 AM

I might, might not. Really depends on how stable my connection is.

Honest February 10th, 2010 6:44 AM

I usually like to check them out, mostly if it's a person I've seen before, but never chatted with.

When I was newer, like about 6 months ago, I used to be like "Hey! Thanks for visiting my profile" Not the best way to start a convo, is it? :P So I stopped. I live my stalkers I mean visitors alone. :P

Guy February 10th, 2010 7:17 AM

I usually have the tendency to go back and view one's profile if they visited mines. Mostly it is one who catches my attention or someone I might have never seen around before. If it is a couple of my friends, I might go back and visit them with a random message of the sorts (or continue a VM message I might have missed after awhile).

There are times when I do get lazy and just view them back out of curiosity but don't leave a message. Though, I'm fine with that as maybe in the near future I'll come across them again and start up a friendly chat. I usually like to find something we share in interest though, that way nothing is ever out of the blue.

At times (when bored) I do end up finding myself stalking others who have viewed my profile more than normal or just random people from who's online. XD; It satisfies my need to do something.

Daeva Okami-Luca February 10th, 2010 7:19 AM

I view people's who intrigue me. Except those of females...

poopnoodle February 10th, 2010 7:46 AM

females aren't people hurrrrr

I realized that I most often view a person's profile when I'm making fun of them, hardly ever out of interest.

Samme! February 10th, 2010 7:52 AM

... I tend to go a little profile view crazy at times.. xD;;

But I rarely start up conversations with those people..

Eucliffe February 10th, 2010 7:55 AM

If it's a friend of mine, I generally won't look at theirs unless they VMed me or something XD

If it's a staff member or random person, though, I may peek at theirs. /though since the staff hardly view my profile nowadays, I usually wonder if I did something D:

Hagumi February 10th, 2010 8:04 AM

Yep, I usually go visit their profile out of curiosity, and I'm interested to see what type of people have viewed my profile. If it's a person that I often see around on the forums but isn't a friend of mine, then sometimes I don't bother checking their profile. If it's a friend that's viewed my profile, most of the time I don't bother checking their profile out, unless I want to leave them a VM or start up a conversation. However, if it's a person that I rarely see on the forums (or has an extremely interesting username) then I'll often stalk visit their profile like crazy until I'm satisfied. But I rarely ever leave a VM… I feel too shy to start up a conversation.

Alexithymia~ February 10th, 2010 10:24 AM

I like to see who has visited my profile. It's kinda like a little wave from someone. XD

If someone has visited my page, I usually visit theirs back and read their "About me". See who they are, etc. :3

I get a little happy when someone sends me a random VM because I visited their page. Nice to know my visiting their profile interested them so much they wanted to send a VM. xD

Ayselipera February 10th, 2010 11:18 AM

If I haven't seen them before then I usually take a gander back. I've never ignited a conversion through viewing though. Maybe I should?

ReyRey-Pyon February 10th, 2010 6:30 PM

if someone visits my profile
i'll visit back. but i won't VM them. just creep on their pages :3

Sarah Paliner February 10th, 2010 6:33 PM

Usually, I'll return the favor out of curiosity....actually, the answer is I'll always return the favor. I've become a bit of a serial stalker nowadays. @[email protected];

.Gamer February 10th, 2010 6:49 PM

Not unless I get a VM/PM.

Platina Berlitz February 11th, 2010 8:14 AM

I do look at peoples profiles. They are so well put together I get jealous. And I love talking to random people x)

RivalGator February 11th, 2010 9:15 AM

Sometimes. If the person looks interesting to me, I'll look. If their names aren't really what draw me in, I don't bother. lol.

Witch February 11th, 2010 10:04 AM

XD I snoop on other peoples pages. ^^;; Hey, they visited mine first! >_>

Blue Nocturne February 11th, 2010 10:35 AM

i have a bit of a habit of doing this, im pretty sure a lot of people wonder why i view their page. I take an interest in those who view my profile, as few do.

alisaie February 11th, 2010 11:26 AM

I don't really. The one time I do is when I feel like it, or I'm curious as to who the person is because I've never seen them before. Otherwise, unless they have PM'd me, I don't visit peoples pages when they have visited me.

RYOUKI February 12th, 2010 1:16 AM

No, I only view them back when I notice an unfamiliar username with a '+' at the end of their username.

Krystallyn February 12th, 2010 9:00 AM

Once in a while, I will check out their profile. Whenever I do, I usually VM them. I like meeting people. And some people don't fill out very much of the About Me section, so you have to talk to them to get to know how awesome they are.

Belinda February 12th, 2010 5:37 PM

Ya I do always,if it's some random person I will check out there profile,if it's a friend I usually am replying to there vms XD

♣Gawain♣ February 12th, 2010 10:03 PM

I'm not really interested. It's kinda boring to see that your friends are the only one who will view. If I spotted a stranger viewing mine, then I'll visit the stranger.
