What happened to the "Views" feature?

Okay, what's going on here? What happened to the "Views" feature. I know it was here before I left for lunch, and now it's gone. I really liked that thing.

Also, when I hit "Forums" there was no "Post" option on the menu and if I hadn't somehow wandered into the browse screen, I never would have been able to post this most important vanity.

Change is bad.

This is the worst vanity of all time.

I liked that Views Feature, as well. Really gave a better handle on how active a thread was.

Mr. Rob, any thoughts?

[martin_fierro]

Nah, it's not so bad.

Here's another goodie.

The same thing always happens to me just before I'm zotted. Is your computer grounded?

I have my feet in a bucket of salt water, will that help?

Thanks for the correction. I am sooooo humiliated.

My preferences are always for 100 replies per thread but can't get but 50 today. Went and reset it(!) in my profile and still no go. And pings to me don't show a partial comment, though that's still selected in the profile.

This is all so seriesly stuning.

[JoJo Gunn]

Well, I just now noticed this in small print, (at the end of my comments) so maybe a "never mind" is in order:

overload: 50 results shown (prefer 100.)

So, what did happen to the "Views" feature? I liked it, too.
I think it attracted more viewers, also.

I miss the views feature, too. It not only showed which threads were most active,
but it helped me with Taglinus to find out how Freepers were actually viewing it.

If a vote is taken on the possibility of renewing Views, I vote in favor.

Perhaps it can be included as a Preference for Freepers who want to use it.

Thanks!

[jigsaw]

The Views are back! Wahoo!

[End Times Sentinel]

Mitigating a truly bad vanity, it did get the views back didn't it?  That's good news!
