Remove Self-viewing So The Creator's Views Aren't Shown
WannaBeBricks started this discussion in Suggestions and Ideas

I've had this issue for awhile and now I've finally decided to report it, so here we go:

So, whenever I make a post, I click on it, sometimes to see a comment, other times to post a render. But anyway, it shows someone new viewed it, which is really just me, this gets really annoying, I only want to see other people that have viewed my post. So could you make it where a view is only shown when someone else clicks on it, and not when the creator clicks on it?

I hope you like this suggestion, if you have any suggestions or thoughts, feel free to leave a comment. Bye!

Views are a complicated topic for any platforms. People have different ways of defining what it is. Even on Mecabricks, there is a simple algorithm which is trying to define if a view is valid or not based on multiple parameters. Views are not just for you. There are also a metric that I use to tweak mecabricks.

I understand, but if someone wants their post to be super popular they could LITERALLY view their post 100 times to make it look popular.

Reloading 100 times the page in a row will not add 100 views. So yes you could possibly do that but it will take time and ingenuity for no much gain.
