Q Post 3167 "Post tracking sites now censoring / adj visitor counts? PANIC Q" On Qmap.pub there is no "COUNTER" anymore. A couple of days ago, the number of people supposedly on Qmap was over 580,000, and then the next day it went down to a FEW HUNDRED, and now there is no counter at all. It seems to me if EVIL people can ruin SOMETHING, ANYTHING, they will. It's like they don't miss ONE SINGLE opportunity to lie and spread FAKE NEWS. I'm really not sure what was real about those 2 days where the count went so high to so low. I just get SO TIRED of the fact that we CAN'T TRUST much in this world. EVIL people don't miss a trick. The Q map owner said this. "qmap owner here.  Not sure if Q's post about "post tracking site" refers to qmap censoring/adjusting user counts.  But let me explain what happened past 2 days if it does. ResignationAnon was claiming on twitter that he found a way to inflate qmap's user count.  He created a script that could create endless sessions and he used it the other days when qmap counts jumped 200K+ rather quickly.  I contacted him, did some testing, and it does look like he found a problem. So I spent hours yesterday trying to figure out a new way to represent online counts.  The old way was counting user session over the past 24 hours.  The new way was to count unique user IPs in the past 30 minute (instead of 24 hours). This has caused a lot of confusion which I am sorry about.  I've decided to just remove the counters for now.  Last thing I want to do is interfere with the plan!" It is so discouraging when everything you read has to be questioned. Thanks Q for being SOMEONE I completely TRUST.
