I've been botted!

[OverEasy]

Somebody pointed this out to me earlier...
One of my videos has randomly spiked to 22,000 views over night.
So yeah, about that...

More botting? Seriously what is going on .-.

Dunno... but apparently a lot of them are Russian!
It's the Red Scare, part two.

I've no idea on what's going on either. KGATV, rigpop, and I are getting botted views as well![DOUBLEPOST=1368589767,1368589744][/DOUBLEPOST]All my botted views originate from Facebook though.

Will it effect me at all since I don't monetize my videos?

Well not currently, but in the future if you want to partner or something and they find those botted views they may not allow you.

Okay WTF is going on. I think someone here on the forums is targeting people or something.

Can you look at your analytic for that video and see where the source of the views are coming from? (Like are they coming from Facebook?). A lot of my views are coming from Russia as well.

I was going to say that, but didn't want to start a blame game. Oh well. It is kind of suspicious though...

I didn't really want to say it either, but considering how many people here on the forums are getting hit by it... something is suspicious.
