Holy. Almost 400 hits and it can't crack the top three like a story about Harper could.

[DerbyX]

Thats because something has gone wrong. 400 hits in such a short period with a 37 rating? Methinks a bug caused this.

Probably, or someone has a sore finger from clicking the link.

As far as I know the system is set up to count each user only once. Not sure about un-logged people or guests though. Its obvious that either the system has a bug or somebody went to a lot of trouble.

There is something wrong with the news I think. I've submitted links, and clicked on them to make sure they work and within five seconds they've had over 20 hit's. I don't see how that's possible.

[DerbyX]

Got me. Unless its some cross-over from the rep system where it counts some users as multiple hits.

[ridenrain]

No comment on the actual story though Derby?
Not feeling a little betrayed?
Not thinking that somewhere along the line Harper and Iggy were put in the wrong parties?


I'll see you're huge deficit and raise you harsh drug penalties.

[Canadaka]

hmm this is weird. the homepage and newsframe pages say it has 375 hits, the details page says 38 hits (http://www.canadaka.net/news/45135-OPIN ... ral_Revolt)

I'm looking into this now. But yes it is no secret that people can inflate the hit count by refreshing the page a tone. Thats why the story popularity number is not solely based on hits. Its not too often its a problem, that it warrnents the extra server load to track each hit in the database and check for unique users and ips.

Comment on a story from the Toronto Star, the paper you guys claim is a Liberal rag then quote it every other day as proof against the Libs?

Harper has faced the same grumblings except for him his days are numbered until the next election he fails to win a majority. In fact the last time I posted a story about CPC MPs grumbling about Harper you guys said it was ..... wait for it ..... a "non-issue". Seems its always a non-issue when it concerns the CPC just like again the careless misplacement of secret documents, an act which makes our government the laughing stock of the world was somehow a Liberal plot.

A few MPs are grumbling. So what.

[ridenrain]

I'm not really serious about it and this ranks right up there with the diabled parking story. It's just funny because the libs do have a big support for legalized pot, and like the NDP, they sometimes have a hard time saying that in public.
As Jankee said, " a story about complainers, complaining."

I have no idea how this view count thing goes though. It's too dumb to read twice.

[DerbyX]

No, I'd say the NDP are the party most behind that. The Libs are far better then the CPC who seeks a nanny state type government but its still the NDP who better champion that cause.

[ridenrain]

Not according to the pot party.
They had a very public tiff when Layton rejected any association with them.

[DerbyX]

Well apparently veterans are throwing their medals back at the CPC because they are screwing them over. So much for the myth of the military loving conservatives.

[ridenrain]

That's fine.. they can have a toke and mellow out.
