Hardly a real concern, but I happened to notice that the number of views on some of the images in my gallery was less than it was the last time I looked. One image was at nineteen plus views, but now its down to eleven. I just found it odd, and was wondering if there was an actual reason for this beyond it being your regular bug or what not.

Apparently, what is seen can be unseen...


Sorry, no idea on this one... Probably just a server glitch, but Lego would probably know for sure.

I wish exalting that post did something more meaningful.

There are two different places that the counts are incremented, and occasionally (once every 2 weeks or so) a server glitch causes the most recent views to not get committed to the database. This means that when the site gets restarted, a few views can be lost, but it is rarely more than 10 views in the worst case. Likewise, the bug can occur in reverse so you might see a jump forwards when it re-synchronises itself.
