Oh...

That's the movie that meme is from.

He probably does it so his computer isn't jammed up with pics. I do the same thing, but not until a month or so after I've made the meme

:)

Weird and illogical don'y you think Grumpy?

I think they just refresh at different rates, so the views sometimes take longer to show up.

I thought a "view" was when I "click" on a meme to also view the comments section. Quite often I will just scroll and and hit the upvote button. So that is why I thought some memes have more upvotes than views. Because I can't figure out how just scrolling over an image could be counted as a view. Unless giving a meme and upvote also automatically adds a view to the tally, which I think it should.

(Unless giving a meme *an upvote...)

Ha! I just fell for my own comment notification. :)

I get excited when I see the notification. It's like "someone loves me... oh nevermind

Notification for love :)

You're welcome

Ha!

So did I!

You did?

Yep.

You okay bro? :)

To be honest, I don't really know. I'm just guessing.

What you're saying makes some kind of intuitive sense, but I'm not sure if it's right because some memes have a very high amount of views (for example, this one has over 17 thousand now, and I've seen some even in the hundreds of thousands). That makes it hard to believe people have to actually click for it to count as a view. I don't see how there could be that many clicks.

About the memes that have more upvotes than views, I only ever see them in Latest. Also, they never stay that way for long. That's why I think it has to do with the view counter and upvote counter refreshing at different rates. For example, the views might update only every 15 minutes, while the upvotes are counted every minute or so (something like that). That would explain why sometimes the views lag behind. But like I said, I don't really know. :)

Only for top users? They seem to refresh normally for me.

I don't know what you mean by refresh normally. There's no reason it should be different for different users though.

"Privilege" probably has nothing to do with it. It's not uncommon to see memes with more upvotes than views if you look at the top of Latest.

Here's one I just saw with 5 views and 6 upvotes as of 2:40pm EST.

Or did you mean the "popular user privilege" of people scrutinizing our memes and making up stupid theories about how we're advantaged?

Thanks, but I already got some from smerkin's comment. :)
