Haha</p> <p>Nvm! Found it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905833 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 21:00:21 +0000 Bao 905833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't check often but figure a lot comes from lurkers, or someone doesn't have the answer so they don't reply </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905818 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:57:33 +0000 Cara M. 17 905818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm always on my phone so I never look. But I am totally guilty of looking and not commenting. Sometimes I just don't have anything useful to add!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905803 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:53:47 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 905803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm always on my phone so I never look. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905796 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:52:13 +0000 Andrea 905796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never think to look! I have seen it a few times and it is crazy how many views threads get, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905699 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:21:26 +0000 MrsLilybugg 905699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>im neurotic about that too. Views vs replies is embarrassing sometimes. But i do "get" that sometimes there's no more "of value" to add to a thread! Thank god i don't see # of views on iPad or phone :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905665 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:09:11 +0000 allison 905665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had no idea this existed! I'm so neurotic about things like this, too. Wish I hadn'ta clicked this thread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905634 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:00:04 +0000 PurpleUnicorn 905634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelgirl1: ditto this. I'm constantly on HB on my phone, and so I comment on like 5% of whet I actually read. As soon as I get on my laptop though I comment a lot more in a short time - but that is not even every day. </p> <p>I also didn't know this feature existed but will definitely check it out next time i'm on my laptop and I'm sure I will obsess about for a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905625 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:56:43 +0000 birdofafeather 905625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i don't always comment because i just want to learn about something and don't have anything to offer. it doesn't bother me, but i don't look that often! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905622 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:56:29 +0000 MamaBehr 905622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mind has just been blown! I had NO idea that you could do that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905600 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:52:36 +0000 travelgirl1 905600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm bad for it too..... I only have my phone during the day and it's hard to write much so I usually end up just browsing until night time when I get the laptop back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905589 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:51:04 +0000 googly-eyes 905589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok I had to go and find it before I commented. I didn't even know this existed!!! Whoah!!!!</p> <p>I don't know if I like it or not. I don't think so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905559 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:44:08 +0000 lovehoneybee 905559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: @LizSmith: @oliviaoblivia: Let me clarify: it's not that people DO it ( that would be very hypocritical of me...I do it too, especially to check for updates on birth in process and POAS threads!) it's that I KNOW it's happening! As I said, it makes me question whether or not I should have started a thread, especially if it's something I'm hoping for legit advice about and not just a fluff thread! Ignorance is bliss and all that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905502 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:23:03 +0000 oliviaoblivia 905502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm totally guilty of boosting view counts and not commenting. I'm nosy. And sorry.<br /> Sometimes someone else has already said what I would have. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905490 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:18:55 +0000 aprk 905490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: yeah, I totally get it. I'm guilty of reading posts without commenting too. I guess I just don't personally have a need to see the # of views. I'm almost always on a mobile device anyway so it's moot for me ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905479 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:14:07 +0000 mrbee 905479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@aprk: usually it's people clicking on search results who pump up views without commenting! We have closed registration too (you have to be invited to join, or apply) and so that contributes too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905460 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:04:40 +0000 Smurfette 905460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never checked that </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905451 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:02:20 +0000 T-Mom 905451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try not to click on it. I know mr bee has said before on this issue that most ppl on this site actually lurk.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905442 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 19:00:06 +0000 Torchwood 905442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I guess I'm one of the people who make you nuts. I mostly lurk. I rarely have anything to add to a conversation that hasn't been said. I also prefer to just check back on threads that look interesting, rather than subscribe, so I make it even worse! Sorry! ^_^ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905435 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:56:45 +0000 luckypenny 905435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually only HB on my phone so I'm glad otherwise this feature would drive me crazy too lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905431 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:55:38 +0000 dolphin 905431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha! I never knew that existed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905415 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:47:32 +0000 aprk 905415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: I know. It is sort of sad when a bunch of people have read but nobody's commented. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905406 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:45:32 +0000 Ash 905406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like it! It's fun to see how many people revisit a post or just click to read. I do it a lot and then I thread stalk posts like "what's for dinner?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905384 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:40:57 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 905384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babyjmama: ignorance is bliss. </p> <p>@FutureMrsMcK: it drives me mad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905381 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:39:48 +0000 doodlepoodle 905381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had NO idea this existed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905375 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:38:56 +0000 plantains 905375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never used it because I'm always on the iPad.i'll have to check it out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905372 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:38:06 +0000 daniellemybelle 905372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just never look at it. Keep in mind, though, I bet HB gets a lot of traffic that are lurkers. The amount of folks that read this site that actually sign and comment is a lot smaller than folks that come just to peruse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-hate-the-comment-view-box#post-905367 Wed, 03 Jul 2013 18:37:05 +0000 MamaMoose 905367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: @FutureMrsMcK: sneaky. I'm usually on my phone so I don't think I can hover. </p>
