Are kidding me? What a strange feature!
Okay, I'm sure this has been addressed here a few times already.
But good grief. You can't view profiles with privacy anymore! *unless you set up a dummy account. So does this mean that if you keep your profile hidden, the person doing the looking/reading is going to stay anonymous (i.e. username not shown)?

According to the Match description that I read -- if you're hidden when you view - then you don't come up in their list. If you're viewable when you view - then you do come up.
If you subsequently hide/unhide your profile anytime after initially viewing someone while YOUR profile was visible - then they can see that you were in there looking at them.
I don't the answer about hidden vs. non-hidden, but the feature does NOT tell the other person how many times you've viewed their profile (thank GOODNESS!). But I believe you go to the top of their list whenever you do view it, so they can see if you've viewed it recently, and if you keep changing positions on the list, then they will know you viewed them more than once.
FWIW, this feature annoys me greatly too, and between that and Match's much higher cost compared to Yahoo, I doubt I'll subscribe again.

Thank you for your responses everyone! I think you've pretty much answered all my questions :)
Does anyone know if changing your profile username makes a difference in appearing on the "who's viewed you" list?
A man's got to do what a man's got to do.
A woman must do what he can't.

MSagreed! i think its a terrible feature quite honestly.
another reason i doubt i'll go back to online dating. i'm glad i tried OLD, but its definetly become a different beast. I prefer real life dating nowadays - although I haven't gotten anywhere , hehe.
