Our shizen response lately may be due to the inundation of the world into our little protected haven.
Check out the views to some of our most recent reviews... 6K+ with some of them.... is it just my fat fingers on a slimline keyboard? I normally don't care about stats, but when you see some of the counts one can only imagine the Sheriff and Madam C. are not the only ones spying on us.

Back in the Golden Days of LJ, we used to joke about how to get in the top positions on the main page. I created some goofy project and applied the ViewBooster 3000. This was just some stones holding down the refresh keys on my keyboard. Then my son created a more elegant upgrade, the ViewBooster 4000, implemented completely in software.
Fun times!

id say the numbers here as far as member count and views is accurate. over on LJ'S i doubt they are. some of there counts are crazy. they say they have 129k members, if so there should a hundred projects a day posted ! i think most of the time we post more than they do.

It's not the projects but the reviews that got me gobsmacked...
For some reason I looked at R'Gi's Oneida Supercell again, and not taking anything away from the post, was surprised by the 12k views in a tad less than a month... especially at such a "small innocuous site". Then I checked a few other reviews around it and noticed many around 6k+...
To rack up those numbers, this site's response had to take a hit (or two)...

The number of introductions at LJ is huge and number of projects low.
I wish more people, including me, would write reviews and would write better projects. To often, people just post a picture with little or no information.
well i guess there are a lot of looky loos out there. maybe it's good more dont get involved or these sites would bog down worse than they do now. i kinda like that most here are either advanced or high intermediate. do we really wanna answer questions like, whats the best sander or what glue should i use ? hmmmm actually i think i asked both of those last week 🤣😎

So it's bacjk to that BLOODY BOY's club again.
No wonder we don't attract people. I personally don't want to leave my legacies/knowledge to 80 year olds... sorry oldies, no offence meant as you probably know it all by now.
This blogs was only raised as I detected an influx of views for reviews... NOT for other threads.. maybe AI search engines are directing people here lately by products. Maybe more reviews may attract more viewing royalties and re-get Martin's interest.

as Only wish I was normal, talking thru my rrrs... but stats do not lie, unless doctored... and I need my meds. 12K be buggad it's now nearly 13K... I write long blogs... too much for most but they'd already hit the view b4 the 👎👎👎verdict, but I'd still be shitting diamonds if I pass 200... that's a raw 200 and not 200k.
