Does Youtube Delete Views?

[Hoovie]

I was wondering because I've recently seen either myself lose views on videos with 100 views. these videos then went down to numbers like 10 to 20 views. has this happened to you?

I know that when one IP watches a heap of times, the views they've created go back down to 1. I had a video with 200 views in 1 day, and I was feeling really proud, but then it turns out someone just kept refreshing... :/

Now it's at like 80 lol.

yes youtube regularly deletes views, it clears up views from bots and suspicious views such as same ip

Bots and duplicates. Otherwise, I would just get to a million views on every video through many, many tabs open on my browser all the time.

yea, that's what I believe happened to the videos I mentioned. I think someone botted them, because I never what my own vids over 100 times, nor do my friends

i will happen most of the times bots are every where we want them or not

Yup has happened to me a few times same with dead subs/account ban,etc. I has a video almost at 100 and went down to 40

When there is a huge repeat of views from the same user they start to delete views

YouTube usually deletes fake views or bot views. It happened to me in my old VLOG channel. YouTube keeps original views.
