.. Glitched likes + view count?

[ZombieBrain]

Yeah, it's very weird, and I haven't thought about checking analytics for the source.

I just did and 57 from Brazil and second 25 from USA. Most likely that person comes from Brazil and sometimes uses proxies to bot...

Nothing weird in Fan Circles. I assume botting is common in Youtube world, and it's harsh to punish Youtubers for something they don't do. It's not obvious the Creator is doing it. It will be more obvious if that happened a lot to unpopular videos.

Now the drive of the person who bots.... I don't know. Maybe he thought he was some kind of a Samaritan, trying to give people free views. Or maybe he was just testing his bot.

Mysteries, but a way to solve this problem is to remove the video from the signature. Or put a unpopular video there

I have very similar stats on my botted video. Also most of the likes came from Brazil and USA. I also found a guy on Twitter who was Brazilian and had a lot of tweets about liking YTTalker's videos. He was called Zezim Gameplays or something like that.

That's very strange. Did the tweet seem negative?

No. The tweets were the automatic ones that show on Twitter if You like a video and have a connected account. But if that's the guy who has been botting us then he probably forgot about this (or didn't care).

Ah; I don't think my twitter is synced like that so I wouldn't know. But I don't very much appreciate his doing if it's him. Really is pointless.

It's this guy: twitter.com/zezimgameplays
If You take a look at the videos on his twitter feed it seems that every one of them is botted, I'd say it's him.

I'll look into him. Thanks.

It's funny with youtube. Bots are just something most of us don't want but they will never go away!

 

[AmberAndGolden]

those likes look spread out quite normally actually. its not something youtube's going to flip out over. but the views dont match up... keep us posted if anything changes.. if youtube puts the views back normal that would be great

Okay yeah I will do!

I definitely need to dive more into my analytics.

My last 3 uploads were stuck at 301 views for about 3 days and also getting low viewing rates, two of them just updated now so hopefully anyone here with issues that just got fixed.
