I know it has been very quiet here for quite some time and we all have noticed that.. But my last post over a period of just a few hours had like over 200 visits.  Now that is just not so.  I also noticed this morning there are a few others with outrageous numbers on them too.. and a few comments.  I just don't get what is going on here.
I know some of us here write very good and interesting posts, but to get almost 700 views in less than 24 hours... what is up with that??
I am just curious if anyone else has noticted this?  What do you think is causing this?  Do we have some kind of "bug" here on SC? 
Or is it just time to close the doors and move on?

    Hi Friend

    I have not been around much and I have not noticed anything, but what you are saying sounds very strange indeed! LOL!

    I hope you are well, dear Quiet!! (((((hugs))))

    I've noticed this happening before from time to time.  Once on one of my posts---and I was shocked at first, then laughed knowing it had to be a glitch of some kind.

    someone made a post exactly like this a couple of years ago. At the time the numbers were a result of ranking in google for some search term. Maybe that's what's happening on the ones you see.

    I think it is the result of some sort of Google search crawling webpages. My last post has almost 700 views in less than 24 hours but only 12 comments. So I'm gonna guess that not that many people actually read it! But it has happened before. I don't think it's a big deal. Just one of those things!

    Hadn't really noticed - but is is really quiet around here.  I miss reading Worf and Mobil's posts.  Wonder where everyone is, taking a long summer vacation?

    Hi quilty!  I hadn't noticed anything weird like that lately, but it has happened in the past.  It wasn't erotica, was it?  ;) hee hee   That always gets a lot of views.  :D
  • queenparanoia said on Aug 03, 2008....
    i dunno what's happening to soulcast too... hope it's not serious. i don't wanna lose this place.
  • quietone said on Aug 03, 2008....
    Thanks everyone for letting me know that this has happened in the past.... e.t.  yes one of the posts I did see was yours with the 700+ views.. one was mine and one was moonplatoons.. ha..
     
    As far as it being quit... I know a lot of "us" are still lingering around in the sidelines.. but maybe we all just have blogged ourselves out for a while?  I do miss a few I have not seen.. I do know mobil said he'd be back after a summer of chasing butterflies with his grandchildren... I miss him too wish
    Meems ~ nope it wasn't erotica, but maybe I should give it a whirl.. I could make up some pretty dang good ones! or maybe they wouldn't be "made up" haha..
    Hi polardoodle, I have missed you.. and I hope skald hurrys up and gets her comp. fixed.
    bloc good to see you are still arond and thanks for the info, that would make sense.
    wombie, yes I kinda thought it was funny too that I would have so many views on such a post.. but then it was titled "twilight zone" !!go figure!
    queenie ~ we are all still here I think, or most of us anyway.  I would be lost w/o this place too.

    Quiet........hey, telepathic mind of ours...lol..

    I was just saying the same thing earlier this morning with another blogger

    The numbers of viewers have been scary low this week end and then some post hit the 700 up in 24 hours???

    I believe that has been only an internet glitch, like Kyle said.

    Or ..maybe....somebody was drunk last night working at SC and played with our numbers....lol....

    Hey, SC......are you in hangover this morning???......:-D

    Psst.....i know that Mobil is back from the wilderness but busy with his family. And i miss Worf too.... .

    silverwhisper has a recent blog entry about books that's garnered 670+ views.  It just seems odd, given the number of responses and the relatively slow traffic on SC recently.
  • quietone said on Aug 03, 2008....

    ginger ~ I guess then mobil better get his hairy butt back here and make some noise so we can have a good laugh again!!  haha.  I also think, now that it was some kind of glitch or some poor soul that was really really bored and read the same posts over and over a few hundred times!  LOL

    eilan ~ I can kinda understand eds posts getting up into the early high numbers, but not that many in such a short time frame! I think we all are here and there, but maybe just blogged out of new stuff?? 

  • silverwhisper said on Aug 06, 2008....
    quietone: as others have said, it's almost certainly various search engine "spiders" that crawl out over the internet to look for stuff to include in search results. i know i've seen google & yahoo spiders on various sites i frequent. :>

    ed ~ I know very little about computers and especiall this vast world of the internet!   LOL  but sounds good to me!  thanks.  Gawd, I hate spiders!

I feel so completely empty. I've been so depressed lately that I can't seem to remember when I became this way. What happened to me? I can't be happy anymore. I can't bring myself to do any of the things I used to like. All I want to do is sit around and...

What is the cure for a loss of appetite? Recently, I cannot seem to eat much food, nor do I have the desire to eat. I am not sure why exactly, but I have experienced this in the past and have no idea how I got back to eating....
