I do that all the time.. lost and gained are so similar I mean if you change a few letters they are practically the same thing. That being said I am not sure how you can lose views... I mean either you got them or you didn't. So to say you lost views you never got is kinda silly. I think a lot of people want to blame something other than themselves for the lack of views.I think you're confusing the word "lost" with "gained"
