Oops! Didn't mean to stalk your profile.

Anyone else ever fat finger the mobile RP app and accidentally select "view profile?" Am I the only one?

When that happens to me, knowing that we all can see who's viewed our profile, I find myself thinking, "noooo! I'm not stalking you. I promise!"

Heck sir it happens to me on the desktop version I just mean to hover but I accidently click the mouse and it opens the profile. You are not alone.

Happens to me all the time. 1. This means I assume most views of my profile are accidental 2. If you want you can turn off the 'whose profile I've viewed' feature in settings, the cost is that you lose the corresponding 'who has viewed my profile' function.

You aren't the only one MAJ(P) Private RallyPoint Member.
Happens all the time to me on the app and I don't have fat fingers.
The app at least on my iPhone is really buggy.

MAJ(P) Private RallyPoint Member, I purposefully clicked on your profile just because you started this post!

It's not just here sir. It's every form of social media in which I participate......can't type....can't spell....a really bad combination in and of themselves, but now that I need new glasses, things have really gotten out of hand ;-)

Happens to me everyone once in a while. Just like when someone checks out mine I freak out, call the cops, have the profile investigated, send then multiple messages asking who they are, run a back ground check, contact their old units to finally read a message saying they accidentally clicked me.

I don't browse the mobile site very often, but when I do this fairly consistently happens. Usually when I'm browsing my notifications and try to select a topic and instead hit the name right above it.

MAJ(P) Private RallyPoint Member, I have definitely done this on more than one occasion as I was trying to type fast and or copy past the name of an individual when replying to a post.

Only paranoid people should think that you are stalking them. :)
