I've always wondered what this was. Like... is it when someone views your whole cove you get a view? Or when someone is on the same page your creature is posted on? I still don't really understand... Does it count when someone has to click on it? >.<

@nroosangel Any time someone sees your creature, whether its by visiting your cove, seeing your featured on the forums, or in a signature on a different site, it gets a view. Your creature doesn't have to get clicked on to gain views, which is why almost all creatures have higher views than they do clicks and feeds.

Views are based on unique IP address. So you can't refresh your cove page to give your creatures tons of views.

I hope this answers your question. If you have more questions about this let me know.
