As you know, the communicator shows who you have viewed and who have viewed you.   Many people have asked for the ability to turn off the logging of who they view.   Therefore I've now added a preference which you can change in your account... http://www.bikermatch.co.uk/sites/bm/myaccount/editacco...ccount.asp   Let me know if it doesn't work for you.

Actually they're still logged, just not visible to anyone other than me.   Why?  So I can see if someone is harassing others if a complaint is put in.   Views are still only logged for 14 days though

i wish views were in date order so i can easily tell which ones are recent otherwise i forget who ive looked at so then look again and this can give the wrong impression

can't do, because it's grouped by how many times you've viewed them.   Hard to explain, but it's a data/database thing.   Actually it is possible, but the query would be very intensive on the server and for very little return

lol, no it's worth a lot i promise.  LOL   Really though, it would make the page generate in 30 seconds or something and would really grind the server down.  Everyone would be miffed about the page taking so long to generate also

Its not the sarnie he is finishing I think its the whole buffet as he has been at it so long ;)   As a mod being able to see who I have looked at is an advantage, as if I have accidentally disabled/enabled someone before I had finished checking I can go to my viewed list and pull them up and recheck it.    Are us mods still browsing anonymously?  Cos I dont want to lose that as otherwise you get loads of hits, just for doing your job, and I am not available so it saves me having to send thanks but no thanks messages

I know you can't sort by date Matt, but can you add a field showing when you last looked at someone and then they last looked at you. Even if it is just in a tool tip format so when you hover over the user name it shows the last viewed date?
