I don't see a point to it. Sure, it'd be another feature to list off as Bungie.net having, but I don't think that having a view-counter is necessary or "very beneficial". You should judge a thread by it's content, not the views. You may like a thread that doesn't get many views yet you may hate one that gets many. All I am saying, is give threads a chance. Usually post count is enough to determine whether a thread is worthy for reading or not because if it isn't, then people don't usually respond and if it's a good thread people will respond. Also, the thread name is usually a good indicator because if a thread is titled "OMG I IS TEH 1337SAUCE!!", you pretty much know it's a crap thread, and, unfortunately, the thread creator is also an indicator of a good thread or not because some users tend to post in a more... spammical manner than others.
I couldn't agree more RP, for me it is all about quality, not quantity. As RP mentioned, you can have a thread that is absolutely horrid, but may have very many views, I think the number of views compared to number of posts is truly different, to decide whether or not all those posts are there for a reason (As, again RP stated) look at the title and who posted it. Again, quality not quantity. Meh, I hope what I said was understandable, if not just read RP's post, that's how I feel atleast.
