Author Topic: Too Many Views? (Read 850 times)

I'm not sure what's happening, but I think my threads are bugged:

This thread has over a hundred thousand views, and 19 Guests, which doesn't seem possible.

Similarly, this one has forty thousand views!

I'm not sure what's going on, but it seems to be some kind of error.

Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Request threads are visible to visitors. It is entirely possible to rake up high view counts.

Also, bots, considering the amount of images/links. This is how search engines and sites like TinEye collect their 'Where can I find this' data.

It's partly bots, partly that view count is registered per-session, so any visits to the thread outside a half hour or so will increment it also.
