Nov 20, 2014 at 12:38 comment added AFH @Robotnik - Indeed I wasn't talking about the front page: this has only votes and answers, so certainly doesn't need complicating. I meant the search page, which currently shows the view count, and I contend that this is less useful to someone looking for an answer than the comment count.
Nov 15, 2014 at 3:11 comment added Robotnik Wait, are we talking about the front page or the search page? I also don't agree that it should be shown on the front-page. The search page however, I believe that it would be worthwile (for the points stated in my answer)
Nov 14, 2014 at 23:15 comment added AFH Thanks for the feedback. I agree about the dangers of clutter, but in some ways the number of views could already be regarded as clutter, and personally I would find the comment count more useful. What, after all, is the value of knowing the number of views? Either the title is of interest to a reader, especially if there is an answer, or it isn't. The number of other people who find it interesting is largely irrelevant.
