EVER WONDERED HOW MEMES ON IMGFLIP CAN HAVE THIS WEIRD "0 VIEWS - _ UPVOTES" THING HAPPEN? WELL, I KNOW, AND IF YOU WANT TO FIND OUT KEEP READING, AND IF YOU DON'T THEN JUST KEEP SCROLLING. IN THE YOU-HAD-ONE-JOB STREAM, WHEN POSTING AN IMAGE ONE OF THE RULES YOU SEE IS THIS:; I DON'T KNOW HOW THE OWNER/MODS OF THIS STREAM LEARNED THIS, AND IT'S ALL THE INFO I HAVE, BUT IT IS ENOUGH TO EXPLAIN WHY SOME IMAGES SHOW MORE UPVOTES THAN THERE ARE VIEWS. AS YOU JUST READ, IMAGES ONLY GET VIEWS WHEN SOMEONE GOES TO THAT IMAGE'S PAGE, EITHER BY A LINK OR BY CLICKING ON THE MEME IN A STREAM OR SOMEONE'S PROFILE. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO THE CREATOR, HOWEVER FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE IT LOOKS LIKE ANY ONE USER CAN "VIEW" AN IMAGE ABOUT 3 TIMES ONLY UNTIL GOING TO A MEME'S PAGE STOPS ADDING TO THE VIEW COUNT. SINCE IMAGES ONLY GET VIEWS WHEN SOMEONE VIEWS A MEME BY ITS DEDICATED WEBPAGE, IF SOMEONE UPVOTES A MEME WHILE SCROLLING THROUGH A STREAM WITHOUT ACTUALLY CLICKING ON IT, THE VIEW COUNT DOESN'T GO UP BUT THE NUMBER OF UPVOTES DOES, LEADING TO A GLITCH WHERE YOU OCCASIONALLY WILL SEE AN IMAGE THAT HAS MORE UPVOTES THAN VIEWS. made by Ripememe yes this is a watermark, deal with it
