1. They aren't very effective...

There are threads with more posts than views.

2. YEah but

The views gives you an idea of interest while the ratings have to be entered deliberately and quickly lose their functionality. Views are more useful in the end.

4. That's not what I said...

I was pointing out that several threads have more posts than views.

I also disagree with you, bu the way. A catchy title can get a lot of views, but it could be a pile of junk.

3. That's because they were just turned back on

They've only been counting views for like 3 minutes, they can't be counted when the feature is turned off, so give it some time.

7. Don't get too used to it

This is an experiment. Tomorrow, if having the Views turned on slows down the website, we will turn them back off indefinitely until I can figure out a different way of counting them.

But since we did great today, we're confident the problem is solved, so turning views back on is an experiment.
