YouTube taking away views!

[ChildBeard]

Has anyone else had the same problem where they upload a video and you check how many views it has and then a couple of days later you've lost 30 odd views on the same video?
I'm also losing subs whenever I upload.
What the hell is going on?!

I have not seen this, maybe it's because the same person watches the video multiple times and they're trying to adjust accordingly? I'm not sure. Interesting.

 

[ChildBeard]

You could be right but what if that person watches it at different times on completely different days? Surely that shouldn't mean the views should be removed as long as they don't refresh the page y'know?
I'm stumped.

some views must have been counted more than once, i.e someone watched the vid more than once and it counted it as a new view instead of a replay.

Well, they don't only count new views, but views that come from bots or suspicious views can get flagged and removed.

YouTube are continually adjusting sub counts (and view counts.)
