JPHolding considers me a nut - that is why I am here

[Sparko]

See any problem with the figures?

yes. The fact that there are figures.

[hansgeorg]

If you are a stockholder, you should be used to them?

[Sparko]

If you are a stockholder, you should be used to them?

huh?

I am assuming the figures you posted are pageviews for your blogs or something? If so, you are way too obsessed. If they are something else, then you are probably just plain nuts because you expect us to understand what your point is without explanation.


What do stocks have to do with it?

I am assuming the figures you posted are pageviews for your blogs or something? If so, you are way too obsessed.

They are exactly that. And since I answered a point, obsession need not be the issue.

Even if I could be slightly obsessed with my viewer stats (as I suppose you are with ups and downs of your stocks), it is not for YOU to set the limit for me. But in this context, I was answering a point, and you go ballistic.

If your blogs are anything like this site, most of the page views come from search engine robots, visiting over and over to index the pages. At any given moment we can have 10 or more robots indexing our site.

Anyone who is so obsessed with how many people are viewing their blogs, needs to get a life. People are not hanging on your every post.

What point were you answering? You have a habit of posting an answer to someone's post but not quoting them so we have no idea who you are answering.

I suppose they are NOT anything like this site, which rules out search engine robots visiting over and over to index pages. AND if that is no longer ruled out, that means my blogs have started to get noticed.

I am a writer.

I depend on readers.

I am very well aware people are not hanging over my EVERY post, I see that certain posts are viewed over and over again, presumably because of polemic content, mostly, but sometimes presumably too because certain people involved in somewhat shrinkish behaviour might be trying to figure me out.

When I do so, it is usually a short answer to a short post.

Me to Cow Poke#24 (with quote):

No prob!

If I had had a bit more sleep or coffee (preferrably sleep), I might have caught up.

Did you look at the link?

CowPoke to me#26:

No. To be perfectly honest, I don't "get" JPH.... I'm neither a fan nor an enemy, so your problems with him are none of my concern.

Me to Cow Poke#27 (no quote, since to previous):

Actually, my problems with JPH was the reason I came here, but the link was NOT about them, it was adressed to "I am not a quitter".

Will you look now?

#28, Cow Poke to me:

Not really interested, Hans -- I quit.

#29 me to Cow Poke (no quote, since to previous):

ha, ha ... others don't

And as you can see, I quoted your post three times, since answering three different things.

[Cow Poke]

It seems Sarko did:

You honestly think that shows that he cares about your thoughts and opinions?

[Sparko]

I suppose they are NOT anything like this site, which rules out search engine robots visiting over and over to index pages. AND if that is no longer ruled out, that means my blogs have started to get noticed.

Do you even know how to tell if a page view is from a person or a robot?

I am a writer.

I depend on readers.

right.

I am very well aware people are not hanging over my EVERY post, I see that certain posts are viewed over and over again, presumably because of polemic content, mostly, but sometimes presumably too because certain people involved in somewhat shrinkish behaviour might be trying to figure me out.

yeah, but what does talking about quitting have to do with how many page views your blogs get? That is a bit out of nowhere.

[hansgeorg]

Do you even know how to tell if a page view is from a person or a robot?

One indication can be that bots are not sensitive to content. A page gets MUCH attention and is VERY controversial (or once or twice very inane), that is one indication.

Also, a page view on blogger seems to indicate the post itself has been clicked.

I also forwarded the question to this blogger who is specialised in telling us what computer and internet related features of the platform as such mean or have to offer, under this post:

http://blogging.nitecruzr.net/2015/0...ficant-in.html

right.

or because robots are visiting your page. How many comments do you get on your posts?

Sufficient to know I have readers who agree with JPHolding (see your own experience of thread and title of this blog).

This one is just myself directing to next part:

http://nov9blogg9.blogspot.com/2015/...d-candles.html

Next part has a little duel:

http://nov9blogg9.blogspot.com/2015/...eocentric.html

And so has the third part:

http://nov9blogg9.blogspot.com/2015/...stance-of.html

Note, on youtube comboxes I get into comment duels very much more often, and therefore know that people agreeing with JPHolding, more Atheists than Prots, but some of those too, agree wholeheartedly or beyond with JPH's nice choice of epithete.

A reason not to consider lack of comments as necessarily denoting lack of reading. I mean, readers could be often from the networks which are into that jargon, and who would of course want to make your point realistic.

Or where I was contacted a bit more discretely on another controversial one:

http://nov9blogg9.blogspot.com/2016/...r-whoever.html

yeah, but what does talking about quitting have to do with how many page views your blogs get? That is a bit out of nowhere.

No, I was telling him that if he quit off reading my blogs, others weren't. They have been not quitting for years.

Also, they have been growing so steadily, apart from certain surges (like US last week, or the passing surge on my German language blog which made Israel top reader all time, 8000 page views), that it looks like readers spreading the word.

On the other hand, it looks more so about readers in certain other countries than in France or Sweden, or UK, which means the ones which are there seem to be holding surges back as best they could.

Woah, dude. CP was having a laugh. You can't "quit" something in English unless you started, which CP never did. C'est une blague. "J'abandonne" est une blague. Ce n'est pas littéral. It's actually kind of a running joke to "quit" on here.

Yeah, um... I didn't look at a single one of his blogs, not even a peek. Again, it looks like he has a personal beef with JPH, in which I have no part.

I think he takes himself far too seriously.


That being said, I quit!

[thewriteranon]

I think there is a bit of a language barrier because he takes a lot of stuff really literally. Also some of his sentences are a jumble of words with no meaning.

[hansgeorg]

Yes, but taking a joke literally is my take on a good joke. At least it makes me smirk!

And, as said, some guys seem to have begun and not quit reading me. Not sure its mostly the best readers I could wish for, but some have.

[thewriteranon]

And, as said, some guys seem to have begun and not quit reading me.

Yeah but it's not relevant to CP's post. It comes off as you just...I dunno? Bragging? It's just weird and irrelevant. It's like those youtube comments written by kids who decide they have to tell you their age for no reason. "Yeah well this video is stupid! And I'm 12." Okay?

Not sure its mostly the best readers I could wish for, but some have.

This sentence is garbled.

[Sparko]

Just so you know, you are not allowed to link to your personal blogs or sites in your posts. You can put links in your signature block, but constantly linking them in your posts is against our rules. You seem to do it a lot, so if you are here to try to hijack our search engine rankings to get more pageviews for your site, you can forget about it.
