So, I've started noticing that sometimes...for whatever reason...the posts in a thread out-weigh the views. For instance, I posted at a thread with zero views and it still had no views when I got out of it. Okay, it's obviously a freaky site thing, but what exactly is it that's wrong with this picture? If you replied, then you certainly viewed. That score is kept automatically. You can't NOT view if you step into a thread. Explainitude this mess!

It's part of stress relief for the servers. The view count updates every 5 minutes or so, thus removing some of the stress on the servers.
For a better explanation, check the front page of the Tech Team user-group.

Maybe it doesn't constantly update view count?

EDIT: I should F5 more often.
