there are too many things to consider on both ends.
while its cool to see who is looking at your thread or ge or whatnot...
it might force everyone/ a lot more people into invisible because some people like looking at threads but they don't want to be named for whatever reason.
if one does stay online (^), it shows who is viewing a thread.
for example monkeecj was at the gedct just reading posts i guess
yet he was online so everyone there saw he was online
someone is bound to be creepy and say HI THERE!
(i did xD but i was proving the point of...) people might not want to be addressed while viewing a thread.
go invisible you say? its sometimes nice to see who is online... for mods/staff members especially because then you can PM them a question/problem. or if you want to see if your friends are online to talk, being online would be good.
also, i am sure everyone is aware that if one is online you can see what they are doing by going to their profile, which is the same. not really, because if you go on their profile, that's creepy because you are like... singling out one person to see what they are doing. this, everyone there is out there in the open, so you can find out easier, which is weird.

I agree with QQ.
I really don't think this is a good idea.
I am usally go on a thread, then read some posts think about what I what to post. Then I have to leave, sometimes for over an hour. Or I will go to another tab. So if I wasn't on invisible mode, people would think I am creeper just sitting on a thread. When I am not even on the computer.
I guess it depends on how you look at it...I personally am not a fan, I don't really like the thought of people knowing I'm looking at a thread, so I guess invisible mode for me. But like someone said, for threads like the jellybean jar guessing thing, it's kind of helpful.

yep
apparently there are some people on here who find it rude for someone to view a thread and not post. So this might make people feel forced to post on a thread that they view to avoid someone getting upset with them. And for those people who don't like it when people view but don't post on their threads, they might see that someone is viewing their thread, but then find out that they didn't post, so they might confront that person about it (and i know that there are people on here who would do that, unfortunately)
I'm just glad that invisible mode is taken into account with this new feature
I'm sort of not sure. It's like getting your training wheels suddenly taken off, having the lights suddenly turned on, or seeing your friends without their make up all at once...
I have to adjust to this. lol

Agreed. This new feature can be helpful, but at the same time it can also be unhelpful. It depends on the situation.
