Folks, I think something has stood out here. Back when I talked with someone in the Support Staff of Maker Gen a few months back, they said my views were down and it was either a View Count Display Bug or a glitch on YouTube's end. I THINK I know which of those two options it might be after checking my most recent video that has been up for about 2 1/2 - 3 hours. Look at the 2 photos below.
Notice a difference? The top photo, from my Video Manager, states that my Raw Review only has 13 views. HOWEVER, the Realtime Analytics from the photo beneath that says the actual amount of views on that video is 56. FREEZE! I think a suspicion has been confirmed, something is BROKEN YET AGAIN! Something internally, not sure if it's with just my account or with others, is broken regarding the legit view count on a video that is shown in either the Video Manager or on the Watch Page for the video itself. The video view count is damn low and taking a LONG time to properly update, while the Realtime Analytics are giving me the more proper and accurate numbers.
I knew there was a problem there because there's no way, with me having around 855 subscribers, that I could upload a Raw Review within 1 hour of the show happening and it not even having 20 views within a few hours. So now, it's a new bug for YouTube to fix.
Another thing I think may be fucking things up was an issue witnessed by myself, WF85Gaming, and another YouTuber (whose username I can't remember, sorry). Either views aren't being counted OR being seriously delayed on being counted by people who are viewing videos on certain devices, like phones and iOS devices. I noticed it on my iPad before when I was testing some stuff out, the user whose username I can't recall noted it, and WF85Gaming just told me the other day that he noticed it as well when he would watch my videos on a PS3 or PS4 and yet the views would count up if he watched it on a computer.
Looks like YouTube has a few more bugs to check on, regarding the View Display Count being updated properly and for updating when someone watches a video on a device that isn't a computer of any kind.
