GFY doesn't counts RAW CLICKS, not Uniques - GoFuckYourself.com

I picked a very old thread (notice the Last Post date) and continuously refreshed it for less than a minute. The result - 60 more "Unique" Views for the thread.

Before:

Seconds later:

Isn't GFY supposed to only count UNIQUES?

That said, I guess 38,000 views for the Paris Hilton thread simply mean 38,000/22 pages/3 refreshes on avg. per active user = ~ 500 or 600 webmasters

GFY threads always counted raw clicks...

LOL made a mistake in the title.

Should read: GFY counts RAW CLICKS, not Uniques

I read a while back that the new version was supposed to count Uniques, and on the SideKick hack thread everyone keeps talking about how so many people viewed it

thats to much overhead

Wtf are you talking about? Been working since 7 AM today (it's midnight now). Just catching up before I go to bed

I just found it odd that people kept referring to the counter (even since GFY 3 went up) as if it only counts uniques.
