Default [request][dupe][denied]Multiple Watches

Small feature I want to suggest.
A 'Multiple Watch' Counter.
Something that you can record how many time you have seen the same anime and add to your 'life spent on anime'. This might be a bigger project than I think it is, but it would help measure re-watch-ability of shows.

I think this has been mentioned a few times before and was shot down.

yeah it has. Mostly for the potential abuse factor of the feature. I think Sothis also mentioned that it was intended more to track unique anime views.

If this was implemented I'd gain a good 6 months. I've re watched Gundam seed about 8 times, Fullmetal Alchemist like 3. One Piece twice, etc etc. Gundam 00 like 4 etc

It's a bad idea imo.

Alright, I thought of those as possible problems. It's OK though at least I got a response.

As others have said here, this feature has been requested countless times already, and sharply denied each time. A forum search should bring up some of the other threads on the subject.

'abuse' seems like an odd reason not to have it, surely people who want to give themselves a higher time spent on anime can just set any random series they want that they haven't seen to watched anyway,

besides what does it matter if some people do or not, most of us have it because it's interesting to see an accurate time for ourselves, not just "omgosh, I'm a bigger otaku than you...", or am I wrong? Let it be a more accurate indication for the people who do use it properly.
