View vs Click

Hey, I’m new here and was wondering what the difference is between a View and a Click. I assume “View” tracks the number of visits to the page, regardless of whether or not the person has already visited earlier that day; likewise, I assume “Click” tracks every unique view, and it only increases when someone new visits the pet’s page. But I don’t know for sure and would love some clarification on this. Thanks!

If I remember correctly....
Views are obtained when your creature is "seen", in any method. For example, by coming to this board I should have given a view, to your featured pet, the honk. If I was to go to your profile, all your creatures would get a view.

Clicks are more about interaction. So clicking on the pet through your profile or the click exchange to get to the pet's profile page.

Feeds are obtained through the feed button on the pets profile.

Each stat can only be obtained once from each user (it was once per isp address, and I'm not sure if that changed or not). So after looking at the board if I go to your profile and opening all your pets and feeding them, your honk should only get 1 of each stat, as will all your creatures.
