Really STUPID and POINTLESS question... - redhed - 01-16-2015

... but when it says that there have been "4564 views", is that counting separate people? Or does it count me each time I look at that thread?

This really doesn't matter. At all. I'm just curious. It's things like this that keep me up at night...

No clue.I had not really thought to look into how those are counted.

Views=every time the thread was opened, so each of your multiple visits are counted if you read a thread several times (as is natural as a discussion progresses). It is not a count of unique visitors to a thread.

Thanks, Karen! I seriously spent too much time wondering about that. Now I can sleep! Ha!

It always seemed strange to me that there would be 1000 visitors to a thread but only 20 responses :)

Lots of lurkers around here, too. Which is okay, if they are getting what they need.
