A Test Case for View Counts

[Trollheart]

I probably should delete it, but there are posts from other people here and I don't want to be so arrogant as to dismiss them.

Generally, it seems that there are so far over 1,000 views on this faux thread, so I think the inescapable conclusion is that, even if nobody is reading, someone is. Or, to put it another way, something is racking up the views, probably bots. This doesn't, I think, take from my journal The Playlist of Life still holding the record for views back on MB (just over half a million as of now), but it does make me wonder how much I can trust the views for my journals here, which was always the metric I used to gauge interest/disinterest, as few people ever commented.

I think it proves that even with nothing in it, a thread can rack up the views, as this one has. Even so, 1000 views in a two-month period - you'd have to wonder how many bots are swarming all over this place? Is it like those laser trip beams that can only be seen criss-crossing some vault or case with a valuable object in them when infra-red light is used?

^ about half a dozen of those views are down to me, TH: I keep forgetting that I've been here before, and because it's regularly at the top of your journal section, I assume that's where the journal action is.

See you same time tomorrow.

Sure you only have to look down (hope  you have a head for heights!) to see my new Game of Thrones journal, as well as my histories of England and Ireland, to name but three. Go on! Spoil yourself! I'm sure there's something there you'll like. Hello? Hello? Anyone? *tap-tap!*
Is this thing on?
