LEGOman273 Posted March 17, 2012 I just looked at a topic that I posted, and it has 4 replies, but 0 views. What, then, is meant by "view"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Posted March 17, 2012 I just looked at a topic that I posted, and it has 4 replies, but 0 views. What, then, is meant by "view"? They're not updated in real time as far as I know. So, for new topics, the views are often 0 for some time, even though there are replies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGOman273 Posted March 17, 2012 They're not updated in real time as far as I know. So, for new topics, the views are often 0 for some time, even though there are replies. That explains it. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purpleparadox Posted March 17, 2012 I've noticed the same thing in lots of topics. It's too bad they're not updated in real time, but at least the confusion is solved! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonaparte Posted March 17, 2012 It's too bad they're not updated in real time, but at least the confusion is solved! Updating them in real time is possible, but it would be more resource demanding on the server. That's why we introduced this delay a long time ago when server power was an issue. I will look into changing the setting so it's again updated in real time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Cam Posted March 17, 2012 Also if ten people look at a brand new thread and all ten of them reply to said topic, then there are ten replies and zero views, I think a view is only counted if the viewer doesn't post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just noticed (because of my "Teaser For My Next MOC" thread) that topic views are now in real time. Thanks to the Mods/Admins that did this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah. That makes sense. I've always wondered this as well... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
