Some forum stats

Aye and time well spent Moneyshot

I don't dispute it mate I've spent nearly half online what you have, and I'm a year behind in join dates, by my reckoning, it'll be similar figures for me this time next year too

The forum stats are showing an error?

The bottom of the "most viewed threads" list is below



and the actual forum details a few minutes ago



The thread title differs between the 2 pics as well, "Sextation" in one, and "Sex Station" in the other.

As the thread title is spelt correctly, maybe the incorrect spelling featured in the stats will automatically be corrected once the stats are updated. Maybe changing a thread title, causes its stats to stall?

The answer to this is actually very simple. The number of views shown against threads in the forum is currently set to update in real time, so every time a thread is viewed the number of views increments, but the stats page is only set to regenerate every 12 hours, so the views shown there will sometimes lag behind the real number of views.

So is 18,000 views of a thread normal in 12 hours? That seems bloody good going to me.

The forum stats are still faulty.
The screenshot below was taken a few minutes ago (after clearing my browser cache so I was not seeing some old value)
This marked thread has been stuck at this value for several days!
I have been monitoring it.
The current value is 602249 at the time of this post.



Also the number of replies for this thread is wrong. It should be 2689.
Only 2 posts have been made in this thread in the last 24 hours.
You have to go back 4 days to when it was 2677 as in todays screenshot below.

I'll check how often the stats page is being regenerated. It's obviously not updating as often as I thought.

We seem to have a new daily record of users on line.

Over the last 24 hours the figures are 25,982, which beats a previous record of 25,614 set on 9th Jan 2011.

We only need another 12 visitors to reach 26k.
