Thread-view count: Does it include the OP?

I just started a new thread over in IMHO. When I saved it and then refreshed the forum page, I saw my new thread with 0 replies, but 1 pageview. Am I that one view? Did I automatically “view” the thread once by creating it?

The question never occurred to me before because the Views number has always been greater than 1 up to now.

Yeup, it’s your view. However you do not creat the view by writing the OP. After you submit the thread your browser automatically takes you to it.

If you don’t go to the thread after you get that “thank you for your post Fiver” (or words to that effect) screen, your view count will be 0.

Biggirl is correct. Lately, I have seen two of my OP’s time out before the browser could return to view my post, so I had “0” posts and “0” views on them.

Anthracite is correct when she says that Biggirl is correct.

Arnold is correct when he says that Anthracite is correct about Biggirl being correct.

Or is this whole line of discussion politcally incorrect?

Fenris, I will have to correct you; your latest supposition was incorrect. This discussion is drenched in the sweet odour of political correctness.

Every post in this thread is incorrect.

And I thank you all for making me laugh… :smiley:

But Drummer Hoff, fired it off.

Ooooh, no. We’re not starting that again.

:: Fenris takes the cannon, points it at Drummer Hoff and Fenris fires it off!!! End of Drummer Hoff and his whole blamed psychedellic army!! ::

I did it. I confess. The end.

:wink:
